$10 per can - which pays the bum plant’s fee that it charges cities to dispose of trash On top of that cities charge various trash collection fees to pay independent contractors to haul the trash to the bum plant Mark Graham a frequent critic of the district threatened a lawsuit when his remarks were cut short When he refused to yield board chairman and Lay-to- n mayor Jerry Stevenson temporarily adjourned the meeting to restore order Still refusing to yield when the meeting reconvened Graham was escorted out by two Davis County Sheriffs deputies "You should expect a lawsuit tomorrow morning if not later” Graham said shortly before his ouster Graham’s legal fights with the district have already cost taxpayers an estimated $60000 dollars in legal fees related to access to bum plant records One of Graham’s demands during the meeting was to know the salaries of the district’s management executives Stevenson replied during the meeting that Graham would have to “discuss that with them” Today district Executive Director LeGrand Bitter declined to release his own salary to the Standard-Examinand referred inquiries to Stevenson In turn Stevenson would release only the salary range for Bitter’s position from $72000 to $94000 Stevenson said Bitter was paid in the higher end of the middle part of that range "I don’t think it’s my place to say what those salaries are just as I don’t think it’s my place to say what the salaries of my city manager or my police chief are” Stevenson said today Board members with one exception approved the $183 million budget Jon Jepperson Syra er SERVICE IS OUR MIDDLE de- parture “My husband flew in Desert Storm and survived" she said “I don’t think this is going to be any worse in fact I think it’s going to be better" Tech Sgt Doyle McKinney an 6 fuel systems mechanic who has deployed with the 419th to Turkey twice before said his wife Karen and their eight children were concerned about terrorist attacks on US soldiers “I explained to them the situation in Turkey" he said “I told them it’s a lot like Hill that I do the same things there that I do here that we stay on a base a couple of hundred miles away from the border that is patrolled by security forces and surrounded by Patriot missile battenes My only wony is getting the Turkey Trots - getting sick" Whatever the risk the 419th left nothing to chance Before deploying the airmen updated their wills provided spouses with powers of attorney and upgraded medical and payroll records The base also has a program to support family members who are staying behind F-1- Dalliss Fuhrmann doesn't have to worry about programs She said the spouses of 419th pilots are a tight-kn- it bunch who will do anything for each other She also has neighbors she can rely on and a community that is renowned for its support of the military In the unlikely event all that fails she has the squadron commander’s cell phone number cuse’s representative on the board and a lawyer for Hill Air Force Base abstained due to a potential conflict of interest The district sells steam generated by the bum plant to the base The fiscal year budget adopted by the board is down roughly 6 percent from the current year’s total in large part due to the loss of roughly $535000 in interest income due to the district’s depleted cash reserves About $15 million in reserves was spent in January in a bond restructuring plan to reduce the district’s debt and pay off its bond debt in 2006 three years earlier than originally planned The move is estimated to save the district about $3 million by the time the bonds are paid off On the plus side of the budget ledger district revenues from the sale of steam to Hill are expected to hold steady at $156 million the same amount generated this year but down almost $900000 from the amount collected two years ago Other significant revenues in the budget include $101 million for disposal of household and commercial waste up slightly from the current year’s total Tipping fees are projected to bring in another $318 million while the budget contains projected revenues of $13 million for handling special waste and refuse originating from outside the district Significant expenditures in the 1999-200- 0 budget include $369 million in payroll which includes a 4 percent salary increase for employees As for lowering rates Kays-vil- le Mayor Brian Cook was one of several board members who said now is not the time “It might give us a good feeling to go back to our cities and say what a great thing we’ve done by lowering rates” he said “But that’s not the best thing to do Sometimes the best thing to do is stay the course” Staying the course as advocated by some board members consists of paying off the bonds in 2006 and then looking at reducing rates But Stevenson said some rate reduction could come SERVICE IS OUR MIDDLE NAME NAM1 returns Iraqi fire ILS US warplanes bombed Iraqi command and control facilities after being fired on by Iraqi artillery in the northern no-fl-y zone the US military said Air Force 1 6s and 1 5s dropped precision-guide- d bombs on the Iraqi sites south of the city of Mosid 250 miles north of Baghdad the military said in a anti-aircra- ft F-- F-- statement Alt US planes left the area safely and damage to Iraqi forces was being assessed according to the statement from the southern Turkish base of Incirlik where US and British planes are stationed -
