UEA leaders stayed clear of suggesting teachers seek tax increases to provide raises, but use one of the areas suggested as a possible source of salary funds could produce such a hike Don Ulmer, UEA associate executive secretary, pointed out that the 1980 Legislature authorized districts in tight to transfer financial circumstances funds raised for capital levies for building programs to maintenance and operation budgets which include the financing of teacher salaries. Under Utahs complex capital outlay levy statutes, all school districts can levy up to 12 mills for capital needs Those mills are not subject to transfer. But districts also can levy mills that would produce revenues equivalent to 10 percent of their maintenance and for needs, capital budget operations and funds from those additional mills could be transferred. However, to qualify for state school building aid. a district must levy a minimum of 18 mills for capital outlay. So, if a district depending on state building aid elected to transfer from capital outlay to maintenance and operation, it could face a situation in which it would have to increase its capital levies to continue qualification for state aid Mr. Ulmer said, "We are not suggesting that that capital programs he interfered with What we are suggesting is that one mill can be transferred." He also suggested that negotiators look at the unappropriated surplus balances in their local district budgets as well as district revenues and expen- - of the State Management has upheld the Utah Department of Social Services hiring of an outside employee, over three applicants already within the agency, to serve as a coordinator at Youth Development Center, Ogden Robert N.

In the city, for example, most of the rapes occur in the downtown area or in the Avenues.

Detective Pickens said the availability of single, unprotected women in the Avenues makes it a high nsk area That, coupled with older houses which are harder to protect, makes up for the high rape statistics. Poor street lighting also is a factor in high risk areas throughout the valley, the detectives noted.
