While Layton does hope to have its grant approved after review. of the applications, Clark said, one of his main objectives is to get the COG to clean up its procedures, in the awarding of the grants. Layton is confident that they will be funded for downtown rehabilitation, Clark said, but the next best thing we would accomplish is to get the system changed so it is done in a much more professional and accurate way. Besides the technical errors that Clark claimed, the actual awarding of the grants is being challenged.

Clinton Residents Protest Plan Motel Plan 'In Works' By SHARON STEELE Raviaw Corr pendant CLINTON For Roy By SHELLEY ''C 5 KANCITIS Raview Correspondent , ROY Roy Citys redevelop-fpme- nt plans for its commercial district may include a motel and restaurant in addition to its planned $10 million 150-roo- m shopping center at 1900 W. Riverdale Road. Declining property values and the possible influx of a transient population were two concerns voiced by some 17 Clinton residents as they protested a development planned near their homes. Edward Hahn and attorney Mike Glasmann spoke for the group of Lazy L Estate property owners who live in phases 1 and 2 of the subdivision. They contested the councils March 1 decision to give a green light to developers Kenneth Mitchell, and Edward Gurtch, who plan to construct 13 low income single family dwellings in Valley Developer Raymond Eves, 3 Vi acre parcel of land at 5150 S. 1900 W., north of Roy Bowling Center, has commissioned a feasibility study to determine whether the site would be suitable for a motel.

He said after talk- -' ng to city officials, he decided explore the possibilities of building a motel. Although the city and Eves agreed on how to use the land, it required a stroke of creative financing to bring the planned motel closer to becoming a reality. The land, which is appraised at $324,000 will be purchased from Eves by Roy City for $160,000 with an additional $40,000 for site preparation prior to construction of the planned motel. Eves will have one year, with an option to extend another year, to repurchase his land from the city at the original selling price of $200,000, plus 12 percent interest. If Eves does not repurchase the property and build the motel, the city has the option to sell the undeveloped land. City officials are especially pleased about the agreement because the city owns a strip of land adjacent to the Eves property which will become part of the proposed motel site. ot development, holding phases 3 and 4 to the same restrictions. When Lucas, who was operating on a piecemeal type acquisition of lots, ran short of funds, the land was sold to the new developers, Glasmann explained. Checking case laws, the attorney said the courts would not find protective covenants for phases 1 and 2 applicable to the land in question, now that it has changed hands. These people have, therefore, relied to their detriment on the original plans. Your building permit grant for low income housing is having the effect of devaluing their property, the attorney continued. sing the case.

The contractor has legal rights, too, he said. If we turn around and rescind his permit, well have a lawsuit on our hands. But Gurtch and Mitchell would have to prove actual damages, Glasmann retorted. They could not claim punitive damages in a case like this. Our cause has been blessed by bad weather. Only general grading has been done on the property. No curb and gutter or streets have been laid. You would not be damaging the developer to cant build a smaller home next to a larger home? Were not putting smaller homes down per se, Glasmann said. Were just concerned with the devaluing effect in a neighborhood that thought it was protected. Your neighboring city, Sunset, has lots of small homes. They built them cheap, and theyre all rentals now. These people here thought negotiations.

It is for the state to see that they are technically correct, Adams said. Based on the way we read the state s obligations, there is no problem. Adams said that he felt Laytons application was a flawless package both from a technical standpoint and for its projects objectives in meeting the federal intent and criteria. The Layton City Council and the Downtown Rehabilitation Committee stated that they dont want to, in affect, freeze all Davis County CDBG funds but that they will fight the awarding of the grants through to a finish. ,J In the event the state does not come through, Layton officials are adament about persuing other avenues to resolve the problem, Clark said.
