Sheriff Lawrence blamed the overcrowding on an increased population in the county and an increase in the crime rate. He said that the county has doubled in population over the last 16 years and the crime rate has increased over the last ten. MR. MABEY described the conditions that Sunday night. He said that 17 persons were housed in a 11 by 14 foot drunk tank. He took out three on bail. But Mr. Mabey said the remainder of the inmates hadnt yet been booked, were on a probation hold or were intoxicated. They were not eligible for bail. He said if the overcrowding conditions continued to exist, he feared the county would be involved in a law suit or even worse they might have someone die. Mr. Mabey said that 70 percent of the inmates, who are released on bail, have been booked on alcohol related charges. HE suggested that one one of the largest flower shows ever held in Davis School. ducted over ten years ago said that a new building was pos- sible solution might be to provide a temporary trailer SHERIFF Lawrence expressed concern that if he releases prisoners, he could be held in contempt of court for not complying with the directives of the court. Im in Sheriff Lawrence said another concern is what to do with female prisoners since there are no womens facilities in the jail. His statistics showed that, while 64 females were held in the jail in 1967, 132 nere booked into the jail in 1976. THE COUNTY has had an Federal Aid Layton, Clearfield and Davis County will receive federal planning assistance funding, but several other Davis County communities were not so fortunate. THE Governors Advisory Council on Community Affairs was told this week that 18 Utah towns and one county would receive planning funJo, but that 21 other requests had been denied. Thus, the two above mentioned communities, along with Davis County as a governmental agency, will receive money from the $41,600 grant from Housing and Urban Development (HUD). BUT WEST Bountiful, Woods Cross, East Layton, Centerville, Farmington and West Point were among the 21 DPutorium communities denied their requests, according to the Advisory Council.

OF MAJOR concern to a group of citizens who proposed the moratorium are shortage of water and the fire situation within the city. Mrs. Beth VanAtewerp, who heads the committee, said the group was concerned by the deteriorating quality of life in the city as a result of the rapid residential growth. WE NEED to stress quality instead of quantity, she said in reference to the residential growth. Noise, pollution, lack of recreational facilities, overcrowding of feet until October 1 when a report of a comprehensive master plan, under study by the citizens committee for several weeks, is scheduled to be released. HOWEVER, THE councils feelings were summed up by Councilman Dee Sanders who said there are no immediate problems in the citys fire and water situations. Mayor Glen Cundall said the water mains within the city have not been mislaid and the water shortage is due solely on the drought condition. He added that the council will take appropriate action as needed, grb schools and rezonings catery housing ing to are only a few of the problems which have arisen.

Sheriff Lawrence said that over the weekend in question, 62 prisoners had been held in the jail, which has a capacity of 38. By Monday the number had decreased to 46.
