Whatever the outcome is, grow with that decision. If annexation comes about, I would hope the cities would join and make this one big city, so we dont always have one area resentful of the decision made on Nov. 4, 1980." Shields said Layton is receptive to Personally, I annexation, adding, feel this is more the right time than it has ever been in the past. The mayor said, If you 6till remain East Layton, we wont hold that against . . . Just keep bringing you, joking, to dollars Layton Hills Mall. your During the Tuesday East Layton council meeting, Councilman Vard Dailey proposed that councilmen Neal Scheel and Myron Nalder be East Laytons two representatives on the Layton City Council if voters decide to dissolve East Layton. His motion passed by a 2 vote. Nalder and Councilman Glen L. Budge voted against it because, they said, there will be plenty of time after the election to decide such things. Scheel abstained for the same reason, and Mayor Delyn Yeates stepped in to break the tie with a yes vote. Shields informed the council that, according to information given to Layton city attorney Bruce Barton by 2nd District Judge Duffy Palmer, the man who would preside over dissolution of East Layton, it would be illegal for Layton to add two voting members from East Layton to its City Council. The council would welcome two representatives from East Layton as g members, he said. At the first public hearing on merger last Thursday, Randall Heaps, city administrator for Layton, discounted what he termed rumors that special improvement districts would be set up in the area that is now East Layton to force residents to pay for street repairs and other improvments. 3-- non-votin- Improvements districts can only be set up if they are approved by the residents in the area, Heaps said. Areas needing improvements in East Layton area would be treated exactly the same as any other area of Layton if the merger took place." Heaps also said Layton could easily assume all indebtedness of East Layton, using the same tax base that is now being used to pay off the debts. There has been some feeling that East Layton is near bankruptcy, Heaps said. That is just not true. Ive looked over your audit report and according to that report, your city is solvent. East Layton owes about $G71,000, he said. Those bonds were sold to a buyer on the basis of the citys ability to tax to pay them off the same tax base can be used to pay them off if the city annexes to Layton. Kent Forbes, an East Layton resident, asked if there would be representation from East Layton on the Layton Planning Commission and whether the East Layton master plan would be honored by Layton. Layton City Councilman Randy Harris said it is Layton Citys intent to give East Layton representation on the planning council, but that he didnt know what the ramifications of incorporation of East Laytons master plan, would be. I havent seen the master plan, but Im sure it would be considered, said. he JON MEMMOTT, a leading advocate of East Layton merger with Layton, explains his point of view Tuesday at public hearing. said it is Laytons policy to put requests for service in a priority order and to work on those areas first that need help most. Were here to try to do something good for the citizenry of both cities, Baker said. East Layton residents would not be treated as second-clas- s citizens they would be treated exactly the same as Layton residents are treated. I hope East Layton residents get used to that idea, because that is the way it would be, he said. Layton City attorney Bruce Barton pointed out that any commitment made by a city council is good only as long as that city council is in office. ' Richard Stephenson, Layton Planning Commission chairman, said We are now updating our master plan this would be a good time (for the merger) because we are getting input from all areas of the city for use in the master plan. By law, one council cannot bind East Layton City Councilman Neal another, he said. So your comScheel asked if commitments that have mitments are good only until the been made to East Layton residents by council changes in next years electhe city in regard to water lines and tion. e other items would be honored.

A typographical mistake resulted in the error. A- story in last weeks edition said the fluoride program proposal was tabled following a discussion at a Davis County School Board meeting during which a question was raised about a death of a small child after he swallowd a fluoride solution. The fluoride treatment which resulted in the death was given in a dentists office, not in a school and was administered incorrectly, said Charlene Burt of the Utah State Department of Dental Health. The solution used was a 4 percent solution. Mrs. Burt said improper treatment following the incident also contributed to the death. She said the solution being proposed for the Davis County School would be safe if swallowed, but is designed to be used only as a rinse. disagreements with Layton and have hard feelings are not true. But, I want to know, does Layton want this merger, and why? he asked. I feel personally that it would be a better . organization to benefit Harris said. We can everybody, achieve our goals better, collectively than individually. , Bob Austad, a manager of Mervyns in Layton, said he hates to see East Layton residents spending their money in Layton and not getting any benefit the sales tax generated from it.

Hearing Dec. 5 in Slaying CLEARFIELD preliminary hearing date of Dec. 5 has been set for John P. Miller Jr., 15, Clinton, in Anne connection with the August' death of Hoskisson. Miller is accused of kidnapping, sexually assaulting, and murdering the Clinton girl, whose body was found in a vacant house Aug. 6 near Millers home after an search. Miller was arraigned last week in Clearfield before 4th Circuit Judge Cornell McKay Jensen and advised of his right to a preliminary hearing, which is held to determine if enough evidence exists to bind over Miller for trial. At the arraignment, Jensen denied a request by defense attorney Tom Jones that bail be granted, ' committing the defendant to the custody of MOWEDA juvenile detention center in Roy. Miller is being held there instead of the county jail at the request of his attorney and probation officials, who feel he shouldcontinue his schooling at the center American party candidate. A position on the Davis Voters will be making some serious decisions on national, state and local levels in next Tuesdays election. Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p m. Local voters will have, in addition to choices to , voting for the candidates, make on proposed tax initiatives A and B, amendments to the state constitution, and some voters in East Layton will decide whether or not to disincorporate their city. If the decision is made to disincorporate, proceedings will then start for annexation to Layton. The voters in East Layton must also decide on the reestablishment of the citys police force, which, if approved, would take place if the city does not disincorporate. Candidates who are running locally include two Layton men, Franklin W. Knowlton, Republican, and Golden C. Sill, Democrat seeking election to the state legislature from District 53. ' while awaiting trial. Miller was recently certified to stand trial as an adult by First District Juvenile Court Judge L. Kent Bachman, who said expert testimony showed Miller would need long-teipsychiatric treatment if convicted. Noting that the juvenile court could only exercise jurisdiction over Miller until age 21, Bachman said the adult court system was equipped to handle the suspect, both for his own sake and for the sake of society. Miller, the son of Mr. and Mrs. John P. Miller, 552 W. 1250 N., Clinton, could receive the death penalty if found guilty of niurdering Anne Hoskisson, although Bachman has recommended he be sentenced to the sex offender program at Utah State Hospital instead. Although the law requires a preliminary hearing to be held within ten days, Jones waived the requirement, saying he wanted more time to prepare his case.
