With the duplication of the facility, they can process approximately 20 million gallons per day. There is also a new ultraviolet disinfectant system which has been installed, and some new major outfall lines from Highland and Lehi. Cost of the entire project was $37 million. Speaking for the board, Sowby indicated they were pleased with the facility. "It is probably the largest single public health related project in North Utah County," he said. Howard Sherwood reported in behalf of the finance department that cash flows with the operating budget are staying up with $167,791 in surplus this period and $316,026 in surplus to date this year. As for the proposed 1999 budget, some significant increases were reported. The repairs and maintenance plant which has a cur rent budget of $53,500 will be increased to $71,000 next year. Apparently this huge increase will be due to the fact that it is an older plant and will require more to keep it going. Wage expenditures are expected to go from $664,000 to $708,000 (a 3 percent increase). The other two main increases were to expenses, Sherwood said. The first was equipment replacement from $50,000 to $330,000 (to replace bar screens and clean oxidation ditches). The second was the collection system equipment which will be raised from $6,000 to $312,000 due mainly to a back-u- p camera, one truck, and one vehicle. Frank Mills, the Chairman of the Finance Committee offered a special thanks to Sherwood. "Howard makes it so easy not only for us at Timpanogos Special Service but for the cities to understand our financial position and budget." The facility's budget hearing will be held Nov. 12 at 6 p.m. A Lehi woman reported the theft of her vehicle from in front of a local convenience store. She had left the vehicle idling, although she did remove the keys. The woman, as well as an alert security camera, observed an unknown male near the vehicle just second before it drove off. It may as well have driven off by itself, for neither the woman nor the camera could identify the figure driving it. The following day, the Sandy Police Department informed local authorities that the vehicle had been found abandoned in a grocery store parking lot. An unknown suspect stole a .38 mm handgun from a Lehi residence. The suspect was sort of caught in the act when the sister of the owner of the home went to perform her daily check on the house while her brother was in Hawaii. Noticing a bicycle leaning against the house and the back door ajar, the woman entered the house to investigate the odd situation. She heard the suspect exit from the front door and went out the back door only in time to see the suspect ride off on the bicycle. Knowing her brother had a .22 mm pistol, she looked in the usual place for the weapon and found it secure. When her brother returned from Hawaii, however, he reported the theft of the other gun. The case is still under investigation. Two Lehi men were booked into the Utah County Jail for outstanding warrants. Lehi Police went to the home of the man who had a $5,000 warrant from American Fork for his arrest, then turned him over to AFPD for booking. The other man had two outstanding warrants, and was also cited for driving on suspension and having no insurance on the vehicle. Story tellers don't know a million stories.

One of the favorite stories she tells is the story about the Gunny Wolf. (She confides the little girl puppet she uses for it The fact that adults love the story as much as the child is evidenced in Grover's popularity as a guest speaker at local adult socials. Just last month she told her stories at a stake Relief Society Social in Highland, where she said the women made an enthusiastic and delightful audience. When asked how she manages to maintain such a large repertoire of stories, she confessed that she doesn't know that many. "Story tellers," she said, "don't know a million stories.

And she says adults love the stories as much as the children. In fact, she claims stories and children's books are written more with the adult in mind than the child. After all, it's the adult who has to read it to the child. And if the adult enjoys the book, then chances are much better it will eventually end up purchased and in the hands of the child. Two of her favorite newly books released children's include the books "Tops and Bottoms" by Janet Stevens and "Homeplace" by Anne Shelby.
