"We think there are other more suitable 6ites." Clement Kester, a Santaquin resident, said he isn't opposed to the area remaining a gravel pit. However, he said, he doesn't want to see an asphalt batch plant added. "I've been by the plant in Spanish Fork and the odor of it is often unpleasant." he said. Despite his misgivings with the proposal, Wilson said he understands why the council approved the new petition. "I respect the city council and understand they have solid reasons and logic for approving the petition," he said. "The city has financial needs." The annexation will bring approximately $96,000 a year in net profit to a city that's starving for commercial development and revenue. The opposition group will now file another formal protest the with Utah County Boundary Commission. For the protest to be legal, it must include signatures representing 25 percent of the acreage in a radius of the pro- 222-888- east-boun- full-tirji- upper-divi-sicf- CarolinaGeorgia Sea Island cultures.

The report was from a medi- ation team that, under the city's direction, gathered information on what residents think about a Smith's Food and Drug store being built in their area. Neighborhood chairmen on the team say, as far as they know, no one has received the letters. Residents were supposed to received them Friday or Saturday and, more importantly, before the report was presented to the City Council Tuesday night. The council has scheduled a public hearing on the Smith's issue for Feb. 16 and agreed the letters need to go to the residents prior to the hearing. The Smith's debate has been highly controversial, with residents lining up on both sides of the issue. Two neighborhood chairmen said they're concerned about the 3,000 missing letters.
