By DONETA GATHERUM LAYTON Using a back-u- p to the lights burning keep generator in the city hall, the Layton City Council conducted its regular meeting in the light while the city of Layton was in the dark because of a power outage that lasted more than three hours... . ' A discussion on land for a fire department substation and bids from the police department for new equipment were tabled for action at a future meeting because it was felt both the police and fire chief should be available in case of emergencies created during the city's period of blackness. y Although the crowd was small the council did proceed with two public hearings and several planning commission recommendations were approved. Approval was given at a public hearing for a rezone request submitted by Ivory and Company. This developer who recently completed the Fox Creek Apartments on Hill Field Road originally wanted to add two more phases to the apartment complex. Because of the amount of apartment house construction that has taken place in Layton recently, the firm requested that the property zoned for additional apartments be rezoned for single family homes on 6000 square foot lots. The homes would be similar to those now being built in nearby Colonies of East Pointe, another Ivory Development. The council approved the zoning change. The Council also voted to rezone property from the Layton Plaza on 190 E. Gentile Street to the Morgan Mill on Gentile and north along Fort Lane to the fire station to This was recommended by the planning and zoning department to create uniform zoning around the city hall complex. A proposal, made by the family to annex 40 acres at 600 North 3200 West into Layton City was postponed. The family indicated they had additional information about the proposed annexation and the council felt it would be necessary to take the matter back to the Planning Commission before a city council hearing could be C-- Cor-brid- held. Several Planning Commission recommendations were approved by the Council. Sumerfield No. 2, a subdivision north of the Scott Chiropractic Center on Gordon Avenue, was approved. There are 18 lots in this single family develop ment. on the property Fort Lane parcel east of LaytotfHigh School. Eighteen months ago, the city council approved an apartment house complex for this site. No development zone has taken place and the there allows for council review. The zoning could be reverted back to the earlier zone or a six month extension could be given. More discussion on this zoning review will be held Feb. 19 at 7:15 p.m. The Council tabled an annexation and rezone request made by Ivory and Company, representing Intermountain Health Care, for a strip of property along Mutton Hollow Road and Fairfield. The counC-- cil will meet with Kaysville City before taking action.

Thats about 1'h percent of the total budget, he explained. "In a two-yeperiod, state residents will pay less in federal income taxes. The government has transferred part of the savings to the people. Theyll be relieved of some federal and pay an additional amount on state, he said. Besides that, all of the shortfall wont be erased through income taxes, Mr. Barlow emphasized. Some $20-$3-0 million can be generated through a soda pop tax, a highway user tax on gasoline sales ar could bring additional revenue along with sales tax, he continued.
