KIDS LOVE IT At their regular meeting on Tuesday, May 6, the Fruit Heights City Council heard an explanation of the State 'Retirement System from Bonnie Cobbley, an official of the Retirement System. IF THE city decides to join the system all permanent employees would be covered with a contribution of 5.95 percent of the employees' pay matched by a contribution of 5.95 percent by the employer. The council took the information under advisement for consideration during the budget discussions for the 1981 budget. DALE SMEDLEY, developer of Carrie Heights subdivision, met with the council to discuss uncompleted improve- ments in the subdivision. Mr. Smedley agreed to complete items listed as deficiencies by the city with the excep-- . tion of road base and asphalt surfacing at the side of the lots on the frontage road, stating he had done all that he had been required to do by the original subdivision approval in that area. IT WAS the decision of the council that he be required to finish the existing street area as required by city specifications and upon his refusal the matter will be turned over to legal counsel. To live up to commitments made previously to Glenn Manning, who has an orchard adjacent to the unsurfaced street between Raymond Road and Green Road, the council took action to close the street to prevent dust damage to the orchard.

This area is presently under the jurisdiction of Weber Basin Home Builders Association with headquarters in Ogden. WALLY JACOBSON, representative from Utah to the National Home Builders Association, said the NHBA would have to approve such an expansion because no two local rights and that their expansion has never been sanctioned by the national association. THERE WAS some difference of opinion about whether or not the DCHBA should challenge the Weber Basin group alleging that it would be better to work with them than against them. However, others felt that if the Davis County organization is restricted to an area south of the Crossroads it would not be able to expand (in membership or territory) in future years sufficient to be effective. SOME MEMBERS said the Weber Basin group has all of Weber County and would continue to operate in north Davis County west of interstate associations can serve the highway. same area.

The board also gave its seal of approval to such action by asking the administration to address letters to the legislators emphasizing need to retain federal support. |
