savings or defers any enough to eliminate the need for a rate increases” Kirkwood said The City Council has directed private contractor The Roy City Council and city Kirkwood to survey other Utah manager Richard Kirkwood are cities including Ogden which ad- exploring city-ru- n garbage pickup and the initial research shows Roy out in front of private contractors The garbage pickup contract expires July 1 and the lowest bid for that service is $198 a month for weekly pickup The low bid on the two year contract was submitted by Norman Winterton of Salt Lake City and is 7 cents less than the current contract charge Including landfill and incinerator fees the low bid would mean Roy residents would be paying $459 a month compared to the $465 which is charged now Kirkwood said the total annual cost would Le $121176 for the 5100 residents If the city took over that cost would be $65858 The cost takes into account the purchase of a truck labor insurance operating costs and interest loss He said over five years Roy users would save $324971 approximately $64994 in today’s dollars Practice makes perfect Clyde emergency-roo- m involving paramedics local fire and police departments and the KsverdoSe employees receive raises trator James Young Speaking to the City Council in a public hearing on the preliminary budget Young said city employees would receive a 5 percent salary increase and the city would pick up the tab on the employees’ retirement program amounting to about 39 percent increase “It used to be that the only way cities could grant salary increases was to d give an increase” Young said “But as a result of action taken recently by the state Legislature the cities can now grant increases in benefits as well as cost-of-livi- across-the-boar- ng salaries” He said since city employees have no choice in their retirement program the city will pay the full amount beginning July 1 “This doesn’t include any merit raises the people may get” Young said “We didn’t include any merit raises in this figure from person to they will vary person” Young said the increase would not only save the employee in taxes it will save the city money as well He said by paying the retirement fund rather than increase the a straight city could save money on FICA payments City employees who attended the public hearing expressed no opposition to the combination pay raise and benefit increase But Young hinted that increases would be much smaller next year if the inflation rate remained low cost-of-livi- ng Says corrections official ite prisons help management By BRYAN SHIFFER Standard-Examin- A er Staff CLEARFIELD — The primary purpose for satellite prisons is to reduce management and overcrowding problems and not to rehabilitate prisoners says Steve Love assistant director of corrections However Love said corrections officials “hope that rehabilitation is a side effect” of having inmates closer to their homes and families The anticipated need for 2400 prison beds by the year 2000 is the real issue he said Love explained that the new facilities should be built away from Draper to isolate them and allow the operation of programs without the nearby atmosphere of a maximum security facility He said the new satellite prisons would be soft medium security facilities and would provide a less restrictive atmosphere for rehabilitation and a smooth transition back into society One Davis County regional prison site at 600 N Redwood Road west ot the North Salt Lake Industrial Park is currently being condidered A public hearing was held this week to allow Davis County residents to hear different views on the satellite prison proposal Speakers at the meeting included Love Concerned Citizens of Utah representatives Dixie Minson and Tim said he had reservations about picking up the service if future considerations were not taken into account “I’m not going to be in favor to do it ourselves unless we calculate enough money to buy additional vehicles” Ulibarri said In the past city departments are caught short when equipment gets older and needs to be replaced he said The city may be able to meet future equipment needs with the lucrative financial outlook Kirkwood is predicting “The private enterprise is in it for profit” Kirkwood said “The city is in it to break even and we can do better than that” Kirkwood said there are some disadvantages if the city takes over garbage collection The move would eliminate federal state and local taxes on the operations Summer program offers free meals r staffs at both McKay-De- e and St
