That was the joint decision of the Riverton Planning Commission and the City Council after a spirited public hearing May 4, decision. After the Planning Commission voted 1 against allowing the twin homes in Riverton Heights, the city council voted unanimously to support the Planning Commission in their decision. City resident Chuck Dreier stated that he was opposed to the twin homes because of the higher surrounding homes, but two homes would be placed on a single 10,000 square foot lot. "When you cut down the size of the home, you cut hundreds of dollars off the price; when you cut down the size of the lot, you cut thousands of dollars," Maynard argued that this style borne is "a sign of times ahead," and that "now's the time to plan for it and to experiment while the building pressure is off." . 3-- density problems. schools are "Riverton already overcrowded," he argued, and the city would not be able to provide adequate police and fire protection to all these new residents.

"Why don't we experiment in this area first?" "We can't keep reducing our standards to bail out developers," Page argued. Steve Mascaro, Vice President of the Home Builders Association of the greater Salt Lake, spoke in favor of the twin homes. He quoted statistics on how dire a slump the home building industry is now in. He stated that with the substantial housing shortage created by the construction slump, all single-famihomes are going to be in demand. "People have to live someplace." He argued that twin several years ago similar arguments were made against reducing the lot sizes to V acre. Hie decision to decrease the lot sizes allowed many of the newer residents in. "We gave you a chance," she said. Paul Ogden, a resident of 6 years, argued that progress is not synonymous with growth.
