LEADER AUGUST 19. 1982 By TOM BI .SSH.B1RC; CLEARFIELD - Maybe Clearfield residents should -- pray for ram. OR AT least, hope for a fair measure of ruin. Otherwise, there could be an increase in water rates for some residents. You see. when it rains a lot. it has this year, residents use less Weber Basin Water Conservancy District water. The city, though, has to estimate how much it'll need, dry year or mu. It could sell the water h.uk to W'cbcr Basin, but then it would relinquish those shares the coming y ear.

That's coupled with personality testing and is followed by two visits w ith a therapist to set up a program. THE PROGRAM isn't al- "set in cement-- it may change, Mental Health Director Russell Williams emphasized, with release ways agreed to by both the therapist and client although most are treated for six months. Currently, a waiting list ex- ists at both Bountiful and Layton centers but there are "many more" coming from north Davis, a trend that is borne out in the courts and with senior citizens having problems. during the day. "The programs are geared to serve all," Dr. Williams says, adding, "the staff considers (their efforts as) very individualized." They strive to serve any special needs of clients such as language and hearing problems, drawing on specialists from other agencies to assist, if necessary. Noting the correlation between education and need for assistance. Dr. Williams said those with more education "usually have better adaptability skills" that mean more steady employment and health.

One would see a water rate assessed against each unit of an apartment building vs. the overall rate now charged. That's what Layton's doing, currently, he said.
