FEBRUARY 9, 1978 By ROSELYN KIRK Point, Clinton and Sunset before making the recommendation to the board to approve the construction of the two come to a Davis County School Board meeting to ask for school sites in two different locations and both groups get what they want. But that happened Tuesday night when the board approved the construction of two schools, one in northwest Clearfield and the other in East Syracuse. It isnt often that over 80 people schools. ALTHOUGH MR. Jensen had said that Syracuse was limiting growth by allowing only 60 building permits this last year and thus the need in that city was not as great as in Clearfield, the administration recommended the construction of the Syracuse school as well. Dr. Dean Penrod, director of buildings and grounds, said that a large subdivision is being planned for the Syracuse area, with the first phase of construction now reaching the completion state. IN ADDITION to making both groups happy, the board also included in that motion the recommendation to close the old Pioneer School in Clearfield as soon as construction on the other budding is complete Also included m the motion was the proposal to purchase a school site in the Clinton area The building of the school in Clearfield was contingent on the purchase of 10 acres of land from acreage purchased for a city park at 1100 West and 300 North in Clearfield. Clearfield Mayor Donal Towniey, who was present at the meetirg told the board that the city would sell the land for $7,500 an acre. That purchase price was approved by the board, with only school board member lynn Burton voting against the transaction Superintendent Wngley explained that, even without considering growth factor, two addit.onal classrooms are currently needed in each of the following elementary schools Clinton, West Point, and Syracuse. - THE PERSUASIVE cost would go a long way toward the construction of a new school, she said The location of the school at the park site m Clearfield had been questioned due to the soil content in the area But Dr White said that two firms testing the soil had given an okay on the final soil analysis the purchase price since Clearfield originally paid $6,700 for the property, although he favored constiuction of the school at the site The school administration recommended the construction of a 21 room school in the Clearfield area, although the school at 1150 W. 1500 S in Syracuse would be only a 10 to 12 room school, with the potential of being added seiqo GiTizen officers Senior Citizens of north Dave County are not forgotten Far from it THE well organized group, which recently elected new officers for the coming year, is open to all residents from 1 ayton north to include South W tU'r who are 55 years of age or older uncheons, prepared by a L trained nutritionist, are served weekdays at the Fugles Lodge in Layton (156 West (.entile) or at the Heritage Center in the basement ul the North Davis Library at af2 S Ilk i1) Tast, Clearfield MEALS, USUALLY hot and all well planned, are served at both locations weekdays mm 11 .10 a m until 12 30 I tor p m a donation of 75 Reservations should be made the day previous for lunch, club officers said ALSO, THE first Thursday of each month is a general social and lunch for the com- bined clubs at the Eagles Lodge in Layton.
