It brings to 22 the number of new dwellings for which permits have been issued in Brigham City this year. I Wires Wont Let City Use Yule Decorations Brigham City has some sparkling new Christmas decorations which Mayor Olof Zundel has described as just beautiful." But they wont be used this year. The city council heard Thursday that exisiting wires over Main street downtown arent adequate to handle the new yule trappings. And we cant get them up in time; its impossible, said the mayor. Consequentally, the city has ordered the traditional evergreen boughs which annually have bedecked the downtown business district. Theyll be used again this year. The Christmas season is expected to here Youre Nov. 27. going to like them when you see them, Mayor Zundel said of the new decorations which feature large wreathes open with lanterns and other ornaments. Are 10 Strings There are 10 strings with each being feet long and about six feet high. Its this latter measurement 65 that prohibits their use on exisiting wires. They would hang down farther than allowed by the state (closer than 17 feet to the street.) Public Works Director O. Neil Smith reportedly is working up a design for new wires which will also involve installation of some new poles on Main street. They will be a convenience not only for hanging Christmas decorations but banners over Main street, it was pointed out. The cost was estimated at $2,000. The mayor suggested also that evergreens at the new community center be lighted this year. Hear Complaints In other business, two letters were read from visitors to Brigham City this past summer who complained of inadequate signing here for Bear River Bird refuge. Its not a new complaint and Mayor Zundel said he would take it to the next meeting of Golden Spike Empire, Inc., scheduled Nov. 24. He said the city has not installed signs because the Utah Travel council has indicated it plans a brand new project to make all such markers uniform in the state. However, the mayor said if he didnt get some satisfaction at the meeting, well go on our own.

Harvesting throughout the HARVESTING CORN Tremonton drives combine which picks corn on valley started in and is now Elwood farm. The machine husks the corn and completed. mid-Octob- one-thir- d Brigham City officials, elated over the success of Special Improvement District No. 16, Thursday night heard Mayor Olof Zundel propose three more miles of city streets for paving and curb and gutter next year. The exact streets were not disclosed, except to the city council which was asked to examine the proposed project during the next two weeks. There may be some deletions or additions but Mayor Zundel admonished his fellow officials to keep the new district at three miles. This will be more economically practical for the city. Special Improvement District No. 16, completed this past summer, covered five miles and was the largest ever undertaken here. It placed a heavy financial strain on the city which participates in the improvements cost. A major part of the expense, however, is borne by the abutting property owners. The mayor explained that streets designated in the local collector system are not included in the proposed district. This is because paving on these streets will be financed by the state-wid- e gasoline tax fund. All of these will be placed in a curb and gutter district only project at a later date. About the new district, Mayor Zundel said it was worked out with Public Works Director O. Neil Smith based on a continuity with previously improved streets, needed water system improvements, etc. He noted that completion of the district will give Brigham City 20 miles of streets b with curb and gutter and paving in the old platted area which has a total of 52 miles. curb-to-cur- Budget Report In other business at its regular weekly session Thursday, the council heard a report that 22 percent of the current city budget was expended in the years first quarter. Mayor Zundel noted also that $50,000 had been borrowed on tax anticipation and he complimented department supervisors who were on hand at the meeting, for holding tight on the budget reins. He said the fiscal situation should im- prove when Special Improvement District' No. 16 is finally settled. The council set Nov. 19 as the date for opening bids on a sewer line project in south Brigham City. City Recorder Tolman Burke was authorized to seek quotations from bus companies for providing transportation to Beaver Mountain ski resort this winter. Buses are scheduled each Saturday by the city in its annual ski program for local youth.

Mayor Zundel said it was necessary to know the schedule because other requests are coming in for the bowery. |
