Asso-eiatio- Clearfield has always been my home and I feel that the citizens and those who work for the city are the greatest. I feel the eight years I have served on the council have prepared me to more fully serve the people as mayor and I intend to solicite and listen to their views in making Clearfield a better place to live. My desire is to provide an increased quality of life for all ages of citizens through a mixture of recreation, cultural and civic improvements.

I feel that there is a need for this type of housing and we currently have our share in Clearfield. The extensiveness and location of this housing becomes the real issure. Proper planning and zoning within the framwork of a master plan can resolve many of the subsequent situations that generate. g TWO BASIC elements must be accomplished. That of establishing a master plan with citizen input so that everyone knows the projections, then enforcing this plan to insure that the environment and life style of the existing residents are not infringed upon. Our city recreation facilities and programs have really grown and are enjoyed by many. I feel that we must continue our existing programs and generate new programs to provide activity for all ages. The framework of recreation can encompass many categories of activity providing something for everyone to enjoy. I fully support the philosphy of a recreation program for all ages. THE effectiveness of current city administration policies and procedures within Clearfield city are adequate. However, I feel that policy and procedure review and enforcement are what really determines their effectiveness. A review must be accomplished on a periodic basis to insure that conditions have not changed. In addition, a periodic follow-up and reporting should be accomplished to insure that the policies and procedures are being used and complied with throughout the city. Clinton Mayor council.

WEST POINT-How- ard Stoddard, life long resident of West Point, is seeking return to the city council after an absence. eight-year MR. STODDARD has been active in West Point city government. presently working in the planning commission, where a master plan is being developed. While the city hasn't experienced the rapid growth pains that neighboring cities have, I feel it is important to have the plan and ordinance in force to assure a well guided administration of the future. MR. STODDARD feels that administration and budget: safety, and water are the more important decisions facing the city. Directing a sound budget and administration of the various problems the city experiences. needs competent city officials. THE DEVELOPMENT of a master plan that provides equality for every property owner in maintaining agricultural atmosphere: light industry: and sound housing plans is of most importance. West Point residents are entitled to an improved safety program consisting of fire, police, lighting, sidewalks, controlled speed zones, etc. ESTABLISHING a good wa- ter program is a must, where additional storage is needed for a good fire rating base. Installing a storm drainage system with involvement of neighboring cities and Davis County will be realized. A secondary water system will be needed if there is a continuing break up of agriculture land, for additional housing. MR. STODDARD has ex- periences in leadership through membership in West Point Junior Chamber of Commerce: Clearfield Kiwanis and Clearfield Chamber of Commerce. holding president and-o- r director positions in each: West Point committee chairman in the north Davis County Master Plan, and chairman of the Council Advisory Committee at Clearfield High School.

Wright Patterson AFB at Dayton. Ohio, and during Federal mediations in Washington D.C. He is currently MR. STODDARD is married to the former Jennie Widdison and has three children who reside in West Point. MR. SPENDLOVE believes Sunset, because of its unique confined boundrics and bedroom community situation needs dedicated and experienced leadership. Some areas that need immediate attention are: I. Upgrading residential qualities through proper zoning and code applications with uniform enforcement; 2. Highly trained and well equipped police and fire departments with appropriate professional pay scales; 3.
