Show t Wednesday, February 9, 1994 Continued from page 1 that are of a routine nature. Anything out of the ordinary such as the present commercial application is to be brought to the council. Three individuals will sign all application approval forms; the mayor, the building inspector, and the P & Z president Mayor Young directed that before all building applications are approved applicants must be made aware of the fact that the town will only install a 150 foot length of water line from the nearest water source. Young said that P & Z should determine where the nearest water and gas sources are so that the applicant is aware of the 150 foot ruling for cost to the builder. Home owners will be required to cover the cost of any water line installation beyond the 150 foot distance. The Mayor cited the application made by Joan Benson. He said she had not understood this ruling and since her nearest water source was 600 feet away from her home she had expressed her concern. The Mayor said he wanted no misunderstandings in the future on this ruling. The council voted to have a two inch line installed to the Benson home so future hookups in that area would have an adequate water line for service. Councilman Allred said that seven building permits had been issued in 1993. council approved action to be taken to advise Ellis Kay that a building which has been under . construction by him for some time at 315 North 200 East, lot . 2, of Kay Countiy Estates, has been declared a dangerous building and Kay is ordered to either demolish it or bring the structure ..up to established 1991 State .adopted codes. . The notice being sent to Kay states that the building has be- come dilapidated and has become a nuisance in that it attracts youths, as well as and criminal element. va-gran- ts, Agreed to have Wallace Kay do work to maintain the town asked to pledge to police that it is not left unlocked. If it is found unlocked all key owners will be charged an extra fee to insure it is not left unlocked again. It was suggested that a meter be placed on the standpipe to see how much water is used there. If the standpipe is improved and used properly, it should cut down on spillage. Unanimously approved the purchase of a large conference table for the Mona town hall. The table will be 44' by 96' and will Tiio Mona Fire Department. Before any action is taken by ,Kay he must contact Mona city to either obtain a new building permit or a demolition permit. Any persons with a lien on the property has 30 days to appeal - the action. Failure to appeal will constitute a waiver. Mayor Young said the town does not yet have an appeal board, but will appoint a board I; ; : ; in the near future. Any Mona resident who plans to demolish a building within the city limits is required to obtain and fill out a demolition permit. Clerk Nila Keyte was directed to write those town busi- nesses who have not yet procured a business license to remind them that new licenses are due for 1994. Those who have purchased their license are: Leland Davis, Wholesale Fishing Supply, Inc.; Don Carter, Clover Creek Car Care; Charlene Paul, Lasting Lamination and Copy; Don and Ardath Newton, D & H Fabric Supply; Ken Taylor, Northwoods Kennel; Donald Hansen, Heritage Country Store; and Ruth Mastin, Silver Wolf Enterprise. Mr. and Mrs. Val Creps met with the council to ask approval to put a travel trailer on their newly purchased property at 300 South 100 East for temporary residence while they construct s home. Creps said die trailer is and has no not self-contain- ed water tank, therefore, they would not have any services un- til a water line and a septic tank are in place for the new construction. The council said temporary" is the key word in the request since they do not want trailers occupied on lots except on a temporary basis. On that basis the council approved the placement of the trailer on the lot for a maximum length of 15 months time, which would expire on May 31, 1994. Creps was told to contact Bruce Hall, Juab County sanitarian, for guidelines for the septic tank installation. When the certificate of occupancy for the home is approved we will expect the trailer to cease to be lived in," said Councilman Allred, president of the P k Z committee. Since this is the second lot to be sold on the Maurice Jones property, the council directed clerk Nila Keyte to notify Jones that any further lot sales will place the Jones property in a subdivision category. In other business: The council approved repair of the town water standpipe. The improvement is to be done and done right Users will be required to sip a permit to get a key and will be garbage dump on a need basis. Approved a $30 refund to Mr. and Mrs. Steve Kay. The refund is part of p rental deposit made by the Kays. Fifteen dollars of ' the original $45 deposit has been applied to water charges. The council agreed to assist with the repair of a collapsed irrigation water pipe located at 300 South 100 West., which has been damaged by large truck traffic in that area. The repair will be on a cost share basis with all those who are connected with that part of the irrigation system contributing to the cost When you buy a box of Girl Scout Cookies, where does the money go? The Utah Girl Scout Council is here to serve girls. The cookie money raised in Utah stays in Utah to benefit girls in our jurisdiction. A box of cookies is sold for $2.50 here. The Utah Girl Scout Council pays 80.3 cents (32 of the $2.50 a box price) for the cost of the cookies themselves.

Ash Grove strongly supports the conclusion of the EPAs Report to Congress that cement kiln dust is a high volume, low toxicity waste, Wells said. Ash Grove is committed to continue our safe management of cement kiln dust and to undertake applicable management techniques that protect the environment and human health. Wells remarks were prepared for delivery Tuesday at an EPA hearing to accept comment on the Report to Congress on Cement Kiln Dust, which was released by the EPA on December 31,1993. In the report, the EPA offers five options to regulate cement kiln dust, including three that would treat the material as hazardous waste. But Wells said it would be counterproductive to treat cement kiln dust as hazardous waste. For a variety of operational and economic reasons, handling of cement kiln dust as hazardous waste would be like using a dump truck to deliver flowers, Wells said. Treating cement kiln dust as hazardous waste would preclude beneficial reuse or recycling either in the cement production process or in other applications. Cement kiln dust is a byproduct of cement production. The material is removed to prevent air pollution and to maintain the high quality of cement. Wells noted that cement kiln dust already is carefully managed under a variety of federal and state environmental rules. The requirement to produce the Report to Congress may leave the impression that cement kiln dust has not been regu- lated, Wells said. In fact, cement kiln dust already is under strict management by virtue of the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act and landfill rules under Subtitle D of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act In some cases, cement kiln dust can be recycled into kilns and used again to make cement In addition, other methods of e-such as agricultural uses, use as roadway foundation material and other applications are currently in practice or being investigated.
