There were other priority roads receiving gravel throughout the valley. There were a few street name changes requested of the Council. They were: Reservoir Lane to Firecliff Lane, Powell Lane to RimShadow Lane, wide enough to place barriers. Merrill measured the width at the narrowest point (25—29 feet) and felt the road was wide enough. UDOT will hold an onsite meeting with Grand County Commissioners on January 19, 1995.

I sincerely apologize for this delay. —Rebecca Martin, Secretary for the POA A Note from the POA Secretary 1 have been unable to complete the notes on the January 4th POA meeting in time to include them in this copy of the Times without holding up the entire publication. One reason for this is that this meeting included a public hearing on the recently adopted POA Fence Encroachment Policy, the content of which does not lend itself to shortcuts. I will publish both the Notes of the Your Contribution to Utah’s 1996 Centennial . . . As reported a couple of months ago, special events this year will lead up to Utah’s statehood centennial observance January 4, 1996. One activity which invites the participation of each of us is called Faces of Utah: A Centennial Portrait. The project is to record impressions and memories of modem-day Utah residents. Every Utahn is encouraged to write a personal essay (from 25 to 2500 words), produce a videotape, take a photograph, or find some other way of expressing the topic, “What does it mean to be a Utahn? How have the land and culture shaped my life?” Each entry must be accompanied by an official form, available at the Grand County Library and Times- hearing and the notes of the Business Independent in Moab. The sooner Meeting in the next issue of the Times, the better. —Cris Coffey |
