It does not appear now that the production will be presented in the local area. ,We would encourage Brigham City residents Interested in seeing the production to attend Theatre 138 in Salt Lake City. The final performance is June 12, the local spokesman noted. The 138 Proposed hillside rezoning was delayed for at least one more week, officials heard complaints about gravel truck noise and dust and more thought was focused on delinquent city utility accounts and how to collect them. , It all took place at Thursdays weekly meeting of the Brigham City council. A proposal to rezone 12 acres of hillside property overlooking south Brigham City from MU-16- 0 (mulitple use) to P (planned district development) was tabled. Councilman Doug Wight suggested the delay until an opinion is received from the city attorney. Specifically, Wight said it should be known if special conditions established in a P zone will continue if ownership of the property changes hands. Owners want the zone change to permit them to construct three homes. They reportedly have water on the bench property and utilities nearby, and are willing to free the city of any obligation to provide these or other services, such as street maintenance, garbage collection or sewage disposal. Councilman Wight said he wants to be assured that the city would continue to be protected if the homes were later sold. One of the owners, Troy Miller, said this could be written in to apply to all future owners as a requirement of the deed. Two council members, Dr. Peter Knud-so- n and Dale Baron, said they had received numerous calls anent the rezoning proposal. Not one has been in favor of rezoning, Dr. Knudson said. One caller pointed to the probelms encountered in Salt Lake City where building has been permitted on the mountain front, he noted. Citizens are concerned why they are having problems down there, the councilman added. It may mushroom into a condition were not prepared to handle. Can we in fact deny services to people who live within the corporate limits of the city? I want to be sure before we approve or disapprove this that we have all the facts, Councilman Baron stated. Mayor Harold B. Felt suggested that if citizens have objections, they should have voiced them at a public hearing in the matter one week earlier. This provided an opportunity to discuss and answer their objections, he reasoned. Councilman Wight agreed. If there are real objections, legitimate reasons they should be brought to the table, but if not then the owners should have the right to use their property as they see fit, he argued. One of the owners, Mrs. Mervin Tanner, said theres no danger of mushrooming development since there is no more private property up there. Adjacent acreage is She said everyone has stood silently by while food producing orchards have given state-owne- way to housing development. And now there is so much concern for the hillside where there is parched june grass. Her husband, Mervin Tanner, said objections to their proposal are based on information thats not correct. And he agreed that people who have objections should express them at the council meeting where they could be answered. In putting off a decision, the council-agreeto act in the matter next Thursday, provided it has received the attorneys opinion and feels prepared to act. Jay Sanford, 34 South Sixth East, presented a petition to the council complaining about the noise created by gravel truck traveling Sixth East between Forest street and Second South. Sanford said they start up at 4 a.m. each morning and continue until 11 p.m., Monday through Friday. He said 15 trucks hauling to the interstate project each was making 28 trips daily. The four hours sleep we get at night is not enough for us to make our living, Sanford told the council. The petition, reportedly bearing 37 signatures, also complained about dust x and odors from the nearby Paron crusher and hot plant. Declaring the situation to be injurious to residents health and happiness, it called for remedial action. On motion by Councilman Baron, the petition was accepted for review and action with the matter also to be referred to the city attorney for comment. And in the meantime, Baron was asked tb meet with citizens in the area and Parson management in an effort to see what can be worked out.

Councilman Baron said at present, trucks find it difficult to make the turn around the existing curb and gutter alignment on the east side of the intersection. On the question of unpaid power bills, Mayor Felt said collection procedures should be tightened up. I feel weve been somewhat negligent in our collection and losing too much money, to be frank with you, he told the council. Councilman Tolman Burke said the existing collection system is good, but added there are times when enforcement ,. 4. j W Ik is slow. Reporting a committee study in the matter, he said no change in existing procedure, is recommended except perhaps to more aggressively pursue delinquent accounts. The current policy says bills must be paid within 20 days of billing. If not paid with 45 days, service may be shut off. Councilman Wayne Jones suggested that he and Councilman Burke, together with City Recorder Sterling Loveland, look into the matter further.
