That's a 4.56 percent difference between the estimated and actual population numbers. Getting the number adjusted will mean more money, Danklef said. "Everything we do is based on population," said Pleasant Grove Mayor Jim Danklef. "We're short 1,000 people. That's a pretty fair amount. It behooves us to go after all the people we can." In at least one case, the census numbers game works the other way. Saratoga Spring, for example, probably won't protest, according to Mayor Timothy Parker.

According to Eagle Mountain Mayor Kelvin Bailey, the Census Bureau underestimated Eagle Mountain's 2002 population by a little more than 500 people. Getting the additional people counted will mean slightly less than $100,000 more in sales tax for the city, Bailey said. As a result, Eagle Mountain's protest forms already are completed and will be ready to sub in 2002, but the city's population was only 3,034. It's the only city in the county whose population was overestimated. "I'm not complaining," Parker joked.

Federal officials investigating the trade center collapse are trying to obtain a copy of the hour long tape, which could cast tight on the cause of the north tower's collapse by helping to determine factors including the exact speed at which the first plane traveled, the Times said.
