Show Millard County Progress, Fillmore, Utah 84631, Friday, May 21, 1982 Page 2 New multi-war- d building planned by LDS Church Rather than upgrade the Kanosh, Meadow, and Flowell Wards present church buildings, a new multi-war- d facility will be constructed between Kanosh and Meadow according to the Fillmore Stake Presidency. A new policy relating to the construction, acquisition, operations, and maintenance of LDS meeting houses led to the decision. In a recent meeting with the bishopl, rics from Meadow, Kanosh, and the Stake Presidency and High Council, and three architects of the LDS Church, George Allen, area architectural coordinator, explained the new policy which came from the presiding Bishoprics office. He said two major reasons for the change is to help alleviate the financial burden on the members of the church and to facilitate the growth in other areas of the church. Allen said though the church will now pay for the bulk of the cost of new meeting houses, two additional requirements are given to church units to qualify for church funds: 1) A prescribed level of tithing faithfulness among local membership, 2) Current and complete clerical reporting. According to Allen some church buildings run as high as $3,000 per month to operate and that is part of the reason the church will require some wards to share their buildings. One stipulation for the new meeting house design, he said, is that three wards are housed in the building. The. building, a first concerning design and efficiency in LDS meeting houses, will be financed 96 percent by the church and four percent by local membership, according to the new church policy. The new building will cost $979,000 of which the local units four percent share will be $39,000. Allen said it is estimated that the cost to remodel the Kanosh Ward alone would have run from $300 to $400 thousand. Thp new meeting house is only the first project of the stakes five-yeFlo-wel- THE MILLARD COUNTY PROGRESS Former Chronicle Editor Dies plan. The new church policy limits the number of new projects in each stake to one a year, not to exceed 14,885 square feet unless it was a stake center. Then the maximum would be 25,000 square feet. Under theis new policy the Fillmore Stake plans to construct a new facility to be located in southwest Fillmore on land now owned by the LDS Church. This facility will house the First, Third, and Fourth Wards and a Fillmore Fifth Ward should it become necessary at a later date to form another ward. The Flowell Ward will be transferred to the Stake Center. Only the Kanosh and Meadow Wards will meet in the new meeting house building scheduled to begin in October. It should be completed in June or July of 1983. This three-war- d building was approved with the idea that a third ward would move in later. The new meeting house has been designed to give the feeling that the whole building is a chapel, Allen said. Placed around the outside walls of the rectangular building will be 31 teaching rooms, leaving the chapel area in the center of the facility. The chapel will have a seating capacity of 205, but could be expanded to seat 750 if the chapel back wall is opened to include the cultural hall area, Allen said. The cultural hall area will feature a portable stage, banquet tables, interlocking chairs. Two partitions can be used to divide the room into thirds. The hall will have room for 52 tables which each seat eight to ten people. The new modern facility will include three foyers, one on each side of the building and one in the rear, three bishops offices, a clerks room. Piped in music will be enjoyed by those in the waiting area for those rooms. The bishops offices will also be computerized. Included in the design is a multipurpose room for the Junior Sunday Aaronic School, Priesthood, Relief USPS 446740 Published Every Friday at Fillmore, Utah 84631 By Progress Printing Company PUBLISHER & EDITOR Susan B.

Similar buildings will be built in the future, Allen said, as Millard County grows and stakes and wards are divided. A minimum of 600 members are required before a ward is split; 4,000 for a stake, and to build a stake meeting house 2,500 are required. The current Fillmore Stake membership is 3,445.
