Show P.O. Vor 1327 -.1t Voters to Decide Issue Special S ereie A cooperative effort to solve the sewage disposal problems of four Utah County municipalities has been productive and the citizens of Alpine, American Fork, Lehi and Pleasant Grove are now looking toward a special election to finance the Timpanogos Special Service District which will provide sewage treatment facilities as a common goal. L: al Act concept. 3) Creation of a Service District as a a and own to operate finance, construct, entity regional treatment plant to treat effluent from each of the four cities by contract, or 4) various other alternatives and combinations thereof . The conclusion of the mayors and council members of the four cooperating cities has been alternative three, the creation of a service district which would construct, finance, own and operate a regional treatment plant to treat effluent from each of the four cooperating cities. The economy of a larger, regional treatment facility is real and comprehensive. The availability of 75 percent financing through EPA cannot be ignored. This financial benefit would not be available to each of the four communities functioning independently and is a considerable savings to the cooperating communities. There will also be a greater and more economical financing capability of a service district, compared to individual effort of the four communities. Ease of management and operation is also a major consideration, and finally, lower rates and charges to citizens would be available in each of the four cities for wastewater treatment. The Timpanogos Special Service District is organized on the basis of actual growth statistics and sufficient plant capacity for projected growth within the four cities and reasonable growth in unincorporated areas. The 1975 estimates population in Alpine is 1,550; in American Fork, 9,735; in Lehi, 5,640; and in Pleasant Grove. 6,850. The population of 1985 is estimated as follows: Alpine, 3,100; American Fork, 13,600; Lehi 8,000; and Pleasant Grove, 9,600. A hearing by the Utah County Commission recently formalized the formation of the Timpanogos Special Service District. Participating in formation of the Timpanogos Special District have been mayors of the four cooperating quasi-municip- The objective of the district will be a wastewater treatment for the communities which will be most economical and will meet federal standards. During the past several months the cities have considered possible alternatives to meet the objective. Four are of major consideration: 1) Each of four cities constructing and financing their own individual treatment plants or improvements to existing plants. 2) Each of four cities financing a divided interest in a jointly owned and operated regional treatment plant under Interlocal Cooperation Agreement ted list teaiiized to Rfleef $ communities. Mayor Don Christiansen, of Alpine; Mayor Malcolm H. Beck, of American Fork; Mayor Evan CoUedge, Lehi; and Mayor Cornell Haynie, Pleasant Grove, and members of the various city councils. ' , Mayor Beck has been serving as temporary chairman of the district and was nominated and confirmed as permanent chairman of the district at a recent organizational meeting, by representatives of the four communities. Mark Johnson, of Pleasant Grove, was named as secretary for the district. Voters of the four communities will go to the polls in a special bond election during the general election of November 2. Succeeding articles will detail the financial ramifications of the Timpanogos Special Service District for the information of voters, so they might be aware of the need for the special service district and how it can be financed and maintained. 1 ' 1 THURSDAY, OCTOBER JIM SMITH . . . 14, 1976 Western Region Poultry Foundation Award winner The Mystery Personality is not really all that mysterious, says Dale Ekim who was revealed as this week's mystery person.
