"Ultimately I think our organization will be like the Friends, but really we needed an organization to have grants placed," he said "And yes, we want to be here to help with the new library, but realty there have been a lot of missing opportuni- - ties in the past because no one was actively looking for grants." The foundation will also be less politically involved compared to the Friends foundation, he said. The Friends used to attend meetings and campaign " -- for a new library, but the new foundation will just focus on raising money, he said. library director April Harrison said the foundation was desperately needed, and she is happy people stepped forward once the other organization dis THE dents aware of the need, she said. "It is an extreme issue, we are running out of space not only for items but room for the patrons," she said. "Our city has grown so much that the need is extreme.

PRESS Salt LAKE-CIT- third-degre- , . ASSOCIATED Lake County mayor Nancy Workman's day in court may not come quickly enough. Workman, who is charged with two felony counts of misusing taxpayer money, wants her legal problems resolved quickly as she pushes ahead with her campaign. She appeared Saturday at the Salt Lake County Republican Central Committee and asked for party support during her troubled time. In August, an independent panel of four prosecutors outside Salt Lake County found there was enough evidence to support charges against Workman. She was charged last week in 3rd District Court with one second- - and one e felony count of misusing taxpayer money. The money was related to hiring two people on the county's Health Department budget who in reality worked for the South Valley Boys and Girls Club under Workman's daughter.
