Fruit Heights Manager Reviews Growth, Change in Past Years By Lucinda M. Schuft w. -V 5x.v.v A .v .'FORMER Fruit Heights City Manager Allen Manning talks about the past 35 years of watching the city and its people e en5ri4 eemwflv aft pf flip RPOVtlp Sk hf) v -- u:.l wodld replace him. It will be hard not to be involved, he said, after so long. Staff Writer In the past 35 FRUIT HEIGHTS years, Allen Manning has known a lot about the city of Fruit Heights 8 perhaps more than anyone else. He retired from his position as city manager after holding the job since being appointed seven years after the town was founded in 1940. The biggest change Manning has noticed in all those years is growth. He said when he started with the city there were 50 families. In the 1980 census the population was over 2,700. Up until 1973 he worked his city job in the evenings after he finished his fulltime at Hill Air Force Base, from which he retired in 1973. Manning was originally appointed as the town clerk which then evolved intc the position of city manager. He operated the town out of an office in his home up intil three years ago when the city rented an office in the Rock Loft At this time the city hired Belva Provost as a e helper. She started training to take over as recorrW whpn Monninct rpljrp full-tim- and soon afterward the city hired T.J Burns as a city manager. Both of their trained under Manning for more than a year before being appointed to replace him. Manning said near the end of his terir the city was becoming more than he could handle. He said he is looking forward to e fruit spending time with his orchard and in his garden now that he no longer is working for the city. He, however, feels he will still be called on to help with problems which may arise. Manning oversaw much of the citys water and sewer system installation during his years there. The original water system used springs in Bear Canyon. He said in 1954 the city purchased Little Canyon for an additional water source. He said a major change he has noticed as the city grew was in the attitude of the residents. When the original water systems and other projects were undertaken the community pitched in and helped. In those days most city work was vn!iin0fr !ahfr hv Ihp six-acr- Manning said. Over the last 10 to 15 years the trend has changed. People today want the city to do things for them instead of helping out, he said. Most of this change he credits to the new people who moved into the area from other parts of the nation where cities did most of the work, and they just expect it to be that wav. He hopes that with the current problems cities are facing financially that the trend will turn back to voluntarism but he doesn't really think that will happen. I'd like to see that, but I don't really expect it, he said. In the early years, he said, the city council played a larger role than overseeing the policies and procedures within the city. When there was a water break it would mainly be the town council that would turn out to fix I it. he said. Another past event in the city of Fruit Heights Manning recalls is the town party which was held every year. The City furnished the watermellons and everyone furnished their own lunches. hp |
