This past summer and fall most of the yards in Gunnison have .show'll a decided improvement. This improvement was helped considerably by the pressurized water system which allowed watering of plants and lawns more often and also enabled residents to extend their lawns and gardens. There seems to have been a trading of plants and seeds and cooperation of neighbors so that entire streets show up as beautification projects. Putting the spotlight on your own property, you can easily see if it is worthy of being spotlighted Tor its care and beautification, or if it should receive extra planning, planting, and care this next ' spnng. The Beautification Committee, headed by Marilyn Hatch, has been working hard toward making Gunnison the recipient of the Tidy Town Award next year. The committee needs the cooperation of everyone to make this happen The rewards would be a general feeling of community pride as well as personal pride.

For every home that was spotlighted there were dozens that were just as worthy of recognition. The idea of spotlighting was to make everyone aware that beauty is appreciated and that it is also contagious to the point that neighbors want to "spruce" up their lots also.

The marijuana plants were concealed by hay bales stacked on three sides and a trailer and buildings on the other side. The six to eight foot plants had grown over the top of the hay stack. Two adults were arrested, and a third suspect was later apprehended One person was in the act of watering the plants when officers entered the area. The 99 top quality plants were being grown in pots using the latest technology and were nearing harvest. The marijuana was cut by deputies and the roots were destroyed.

Information handouts concerning the four initiatives and copies of the petition forms are now available, Turner said. He indicated that they were looking for a chairperson and workers in each of the counties involved. The Southern Utah area includes the coun- ties of:Beaver, Garfield, Iron, Juab, Kane, Millard, Piute, Sanpete, Sevier, Washington and Wayne. The four tax reform initiatives are: 1) The Utah Family Choice in Education Act. It will provide parents a limited tax credit against state income tax for each child attending a private school. 2) The Political Action Disclosure Act This requires Political Action Committees fPACS) (organizations set up by special interest groups to promote their self interests) to register with the Lieutenant Gov- - emors office. 3) The people Tax spending limitation and amend- ments. This limits residential s to 1 property taxes to percent of the fair market value and taxes on all ohter property to 1 percent of the fair market value. 4) The Peoples tax reduction Act. This act will repeal the four major tax increases passed in the 1987 general session of the legislature and will affect the following taxes; income tax, sales tax, gasoline tax, cigarette tax. In addition to repealing the tax increases in the above areas, it will also lower the percentages in the current income tax tables to prevent the state million tax from taking the windfall (money that should be returned to the taxpayers) resulting from the changes in the federal income tax laws. The opposition is well organized and well financed, Turner said. He noted that Utah and Neberaska had the biggest gasoline tax of any in the nation and at the same time were encouraging more tourist three-fourth- No wood to add.

An administration that calls for an increase in taxes at a time when projected revenues are down because of an eroding tax base just doesnt understand economics, Turner said. He said we are sympathetic toward those government subdivisions who are short of funds. With federal revenue sharing eliminated, cities, counties and agencies of state government are hurting, he said, but so is the taxpayer This is the itme to reduce and eliminate programs or the economy will never get rolling again.
