(See related story on page 10.) His future plans include continuing his involvement with com- munity theater, spending more time with his family, gardening and landscaping the.

Kay has been instrumental in establishing an environmental area at Meadow Elementary, with grant funding used to purchase native trees and plants creating an outdoor science area for the benefit of the students. Stone is probably best known for his beautiful singing voice and for his talent as a square dance caller. Many children have had the privilege of learning to dance and enjoy square dancing from this fine educator. Cedar Fort okays phone Only a few motions were proposed and passed at a recent Cedar Fort City Council meeting. You will soon be able to call the city office at the old Quonset hut across from the city park because they passed a motion made by Bart Berry to purchase a phone and an answering machine for the town. The second was given by Tom Groff and the vote was unanimous. The new procurement policy for the city was opposed by Glen Cook. The policy establishes that bids must be procured for costs to the city greater than $100 and less than $1000. There must be at least three bids and these can be given by telephone. More costly expenses must have the bids received in writing and the new policy allows for emergency funding. The motion, made by Groff and seconded by the mayor, passed Purchase orders okayed The orders were approved by the council at following purchase their last meeting: $2,246.86 to Peck Building Supply for doors and frames for the Vet's Ballpark concession building.

"There was a discrepancy between 500 and 1000 dollars," said Cook, a week after the meeting. "The procurement ordinance hasn't been done to clarify. They got to get it up to date. I won't object to it then." But the 73 year-ol- d Cook had more to say about city council business besides just the policy, "all this hurry-hurrIt gets us into trouble all the time." y. The street is no place for some cars, according to Police Chief Karl Zimmerman and Lehi City ordinances. After receiving reports from the Streets Department about cars were obstructing work, Zimmerman canvassed the city and found 76 violations in two that said.

Fork "It should be cheaper to run a sewer system managed by five cities than by one," pointed out Hall. With concurrency management, road systems could be jointly planned and city borders could be more easily defined. The cities in North Utah County are growing so the guest speaker, Mountainlands Association Government Community Planner Andy Hall had some interesting proposals, including doing away with lot size zoning and introduce "clustering" or density zoning. Invited by the commission to help address the city's growth con- rapidly that neighboring cities don't know where another city's ends. or border begins Concurrency management would let everyone know what everyone cerns, Hall gave suggestions on how to meet current and future dilemmas. "I imagine lately you have felt like a fire station just putting out fires," commented Hall and answered by nervous laughter. "You need to find time to plan, at least once a month." Hall indicated that the worse is yet to come, "There are two kinds of developers. The first are the local developers and they'll complain about the ordinances but they'll comply. The second type are the developers and they come with their lawyers. They just come and get a copy of the ordinances and find the loopholes. I imagine you are just beginning to see those." To help defend the city from wanton developing, he strongly encouraged the city planning and zoning commission to develop a set of and to start analyzing their ordinances word by word before the lawyers force them to. Another bit of advice was to start using concurrency management instead of having the "kingdoms of Lehi, Highland, American else is doing. In response to the commission's concerns for development growth and multi-un- it housing, Hall introclusg duced the more tered development plan. Clustering involves shrinking the lot size and turning over a percentage of the development for a park, greenway, or sports field. The same amount of homes appears to have more "country" than present day lot zoning where residences are built by lot size. Property is set aside for recreational or habitat use. "They want you to look like California home after home after home," commented councilmember DeeRay Russon. "The question is how can a ordinance be structured so they have to comply with this kind of a development?" Bonuses and logic were the answers. For an apartment complex, if developers would give a certain percentage of land for green area, they would get in return permission to add a certain number more of apartment units. rural-lookin- te by-la- Chief concerned about parking days. "It is a citywide problem," he Rodeo appointed. Lehi has not done well this week. "It's probably because they were hosting as well," said Jeannie.
