The city council also adopted a schedule for other hearings to be held in the near future. Additional zoning ordinance meetings are summarized on the hand out sheet, said McKnight. A public meeting will be held on the draft ordinance on June 26, Wednesday, at 7:30 p.m. Another hearing on the draft will be held on July 9, Tuesday, at 7:30 p.m. and the adoption of the zoning ordinance is set for July 16, Tuesday, at 7:30 p.m. The city airport environmental assessment schedule has also be arranged, he said. The summary is a task completion target, said McKnight. A public meeting and a work session on the alternatives has been set for July 9, a Tuesday, at 6 p.m. We have planned two meetings for the same night, said McKnight. We have planned a public hearing on the zoning or- dinance draft and the public meeting on the alternatives for the airport environmental assessment. On July 16, at council meeting, the airport alternative decision will be made. That is the same evening scheduled for the adoption of the zoning ordinance. September 3, Tuesday, at 6:30 p.m. has been set for a public hearing on the environmental assessment. Nephi City Council members will wait for the budget hearings and adoption of the city budget for the fiscal year 1996 and 1997 before they decide what to do about flowers being left at the cemetery. We are willing to set a time and come and discuss, said Nephi Mayor Robert Steele. The decision has to be made by the council on whether to change the policy governing the placing of flowers at the city cemeteries or keep to the policy the city now has. Everybody seems to think that flowers should be allowed to remain on graves on special occasions, said Steele. Ive had a few people talk to me about it, said Jim Wilkey, city council member. Nephi City Council members met with a Nephi business owner to discuss his commercial property on Nephis Main Street. Mike McPhilomy, who sells rock for design landscaping, needs to screen the rock he stores so it cannot be seen from the street. McPhilomys business license was approved by council members on condition that he not store nor display rock on city property. The storage of inventory must also be screened from the street. There has to be a way to in- corporate some of the decorative rock into the landscaping, said Chad Brough, city council member. He told McPhilomy he thought he was creative enough to display some things attractively but not have all of his in- ventory in plain view of the street. However, said Mayor Robert Steele, the inventory needed to be screened. All of the palettes should be screened by being back behind the building. Even the pallets, he said, could be used. Pallets could be placed in 2 foot sections so they can be portable. They cannot be higher than said Steele. However, the loaded palettes must not be By Myrna Trauntvein seen from the street. s McPhilomy said he needed Correspondent samples of the rocks he could provide to show prospective buyEureka Senior Citizens have ers. lost their funding.

Administrator You have probably heard about the proposal that your attitude determines your attitude, and a lot of other positive thinking ideas. Well, I suggest that theres a lot to those ideas and practices as we get up each morning and go forward to have a good day, or as we strive to lift others, or strive for better relationships, and especially as we strive to serve others who depend on us for their physical, social, and mental well being. Whether you are a caregiver at home or in a health care facility, its vital to the well being of the one you are serving and to your own well being to have positive emphasize to thinking. I try our staff at Canyon Hills Health Care Center, No Stinking Thinking. If youre a promoter of Stinking Thinking, youre going to have a bad day, and so is everyone you may contact and have influence with. Ive heard it said that some folks are their own prophets; they prophesy that theyre going to have a crummy day, and sure enough, they accelerate their thinking and consequent actions to fulfill their prophecy. Let me share some notes I recently read by an unknown author about worry and stress and the consequent need for us to put ourselves in a healthier frame of mind and stay away from stinking thinking. Are you worrying yourself sick? Doctors claim the great majority of medical ailments treat are triggered by mental stress. Emotional problems can seriously jeopardize your health, particularly if the problems are ongoing unresolved matters. This comes from stinking thinking. Chronic stress, anger, depression, and anxiety can alter your bodys chemical balance which seems to weaken the immune system. The level of immunity they enhanced fighter cells decreasmaking you more susceptible to illnesses. Try to recognize the stressors in your life and create solutions. Be good to yourself.
