The library board is pondering the situation of overdue books valued at more than $5,000, as recounted by Pete Giacoma, Farmington Branch librarian and supervisor of the county bookmobile program that serves Farmington south. BECAUSE PATRONS dont have to pay fines for overdue books, apparently they dont feel an obligation to return them, he told the library board, last week. Comparing overdue books in the bookmobile to the headquarters library, only 173 were delinquent between July and November of last year, or less h as many as from than the bookmobile. : one-fift- : A FIVE cent fine per day is charged for books borrowed from the three stationary libraries in Clearfield, Farming- - ton and Bountiful. Initially, a weeks grace period is allowed and then if the book isnt returned, the 40 cents is added to succeeding five cent daily increments. Although some books are returned at the permanent libraries, Mr. Giacoma said, but at the time the county took over the bookmobile service for the south end from the Mountain Bell operators will begin advising customers that beginning March 1, long distance calls made from public phones billed to a third number will not be completed unless someone at the other number accepts the call. The change in policy is being made to protect customers from being billed for calls they dont make and to reduce long distance telephone fraud. BETWEEN now and March if no one answers or the line is busy at the third number, the call will still go through. But on , acceptance from someone at the third number calls for March : LIBRARY Director Jeanne Layton questioned ability to maintain a delinquent book list at the bookmobile by checking each patron for overdues forced by lines that would back up and other problems faced in the small facilities. 1, made from public phones will be required before such a call can be completed. Operators will tell customers, Ill check that number and connect you. If the third number is busy or doesnt answer, the operator will say, Your billing number is busy or doesnt answer. Billing on this call is acceptable. However, starting March 1 , 1 will need verbal acceptance from your billing number or alternate billing such as a Calling Card. The verification attempt takes approximately 30 seconds. THIS IS only a logical extension of our collect call practice, said Carl Hunt, District Manager Operator Services. The revision is designed to protect customers from being charged for calls they dont make. Misbilled calls from public telephones are growing at an alarming rate. Customer dissatisfaction with the present practice is growing as a result.

Also planned for the first phase would be the mez zanine to house office occupations for $325,000; welding, student services and admission, at $2.4 million; electronics, electricity, plus drafting class facilities, $1.6 million. If that phase is approved, it will include nearly 80,000 square feet. Other funding included would include completing purchase of the two existing buildings from the Davis School District at $806,000, utility extension for $400,000, remodeling the existing buildings at $145,000 and campus site development of more than million dollars. on long disdial zero-plu- s tance calls.

If we cant meet that deadline, we would lose several thousand dollars in tax benefits, representatives told the Davis Waste Management Board. County BUT WHAT about interest benefits that might be lost by selling (bonds) now rather than waiting until interest rates become lower - if, in fact, they do continue to decline? Industrial revenue bonds have been approved by Davis County for construction of the plant; but the plant would be built, financed and operated by the private firm it was explained. ), , DAVIS COUNTY officials emphasized that neither the county nor the cities within the city are building or operating the proposed facility nor is the county being held liable, they said.

MEANWHILE, A group of Layton residents have opposed the proposed site in Layton, saying they will file an injunction if it appears that site is the one finally approved. The plant must be located adjacent to Hill Air Force Base becuase of an agreement between the federal installation and the developers to have the base purchase steam and electricity w hich would be generated by the plant during regular operation. WITHOUT THE sale of steam and electricity, the plant could not be economically operated, developers contend. "And Hill AFB is the only likely facility in the county that could use the steam. Mr. Stark said developers have not yet requested any type of building permit, not even a conditional use permit. MEANWHILE, he said, a committee to study the issue, as it pertains to Clearfield, will be organized. We know there will be problems and there are some residents in the city who oppose the proposed site (just west of Clearfield Citys water tanks), he said.
