A request from Lexus of Lindon prompted the City Planning Commission to change the current ordinance, which states that all flag poles in the city cannot exceed 60 feet in height. If the City Council approves the change, businesses within 500 feet of the freeway will be able to extend the length of flag poles to 100 feet, of a mile apart. three-quarte- rs MAPLETON I Anyone (not just senior citizens) interested in learning tai chi is invited to attend a tai 0 chi class from a.m. 8:30-9:3- on Wednesday mornings in the City Center multipurpose room, 125 W. 400 North., Mapletoa Tai chi increases physical and mental fitness.

A proposal presented at the City Council's Jan. 23 meeting ing such a measure. Aaron Bylund, an Orem standard to better protect kids from explicit resident and student at Utah materials in Family City U.S.A.

"What's important is that we make a statement like this for what we stand for in our town." Taking a cue from recent d efforts by members of organizations such as Citizens for Families and Communities for Decency to pass Councilman Les Campbell said he personally visited with Bylund about his proposal and feels his heart is in the right place. Yet Campbell remains concerned that a resolution would unfairly impose a blanket standard on residents in the community who don't share that standard. He also believes it's the role of parents to decide what's appropriate for their children. "A standard is one you set similar measures in Utah cities, Bylund said a city resolution yourself," Campbell said.

"That's not something at this point we're willing to do at all," he said. "All of us believe in the principle of what's being done. We want safe places for children. But what's the vehicle? What's the process? That's what we're struggling with." JoAnn Hamilton, a Bountiful resident and founder of Citizens for Families, said the advantage of a city adopting a community standard for decency is that it helps establish a legal framework for expressing a community's decency standards. Though most cities have ordinances regarding sexually oriented businesses, most don't have policies on the book that set community decency standards, she said. Backed with a standards resolution, Hamilton said many Utah residents have experienced significant success when making a friendly request to store managers to put covers over the front page of racy magazines stands. at grocery check-ou- t Hamilton said her organization has never asked businesses to remove explicit magazines and products, only that they be kept out of the view of children. "A resolution is one little cog but it has the tendency to wake people up," she said. "If we do nothing, we are all in a mess."
