This was the message of a special film viewed Wednesday by the Tooele County Chamber of Commerce during their regular business luncheon. DECAYING business conditions currently being experienced merchants have by Tooeles sparked interest in a redevelopment program for the city. City officials and businessmen have for several weeks been reviewing possible approaches to the problem. The Grand Junction story clearly shows that a concerted community effort can pay increased off in community pride and growing sales. At the same time shopping areas can be both convenient and visually attractive. Councilman Tooele City George Mantes reviewed a recent Utah Foundation Report which painted a disappointing picture of business conditions in Tooele County. The report compared retail sales figures for various areas of Utah over a five year period from 1965 to 1969. Sales over the state increased 27.4 percent but for Tooele County the increase was only 18.9 per cent or 26.4 million dollars over the five years. When adjustments are made to compensate for the cost of inflation, the county increase was only 1.1 percent. Population growth in the county for the same period was 18.7. percent which kept pace with the statewide increase. Personal income in the county grew 73.3 percent while for Tooele City the increase was 135.2 percent. COMPARING Utahs 22 largest cities found Tooele with 12.4 percent growth rate for retail sales. This time when adjustments were made for inflation it was found that the city actually lost ground. Referring to the Grand Junction improvement program, Mr. Such a project Mantes said, is exactly what we need to instill pride in the people of Jr. Golf Tourney mir Vi Jit v? f E.
