Show School Boards To Study After School Care Plan TAYLORSVILLE. Agreeing that the need was there, the County Recreation Board voted to bring a proposal that the recreation department expand its day care and after school programs before all four county school boards. Under the terms of the proposal, the department would make use of space at 18 elementarly schools, four in Jordan District, one in Murray, nine in Granite and five in Salt Lake District. The recreation department would rent space at each parbe ticipating school and would responsible for cleaning services at each site. Plans are to employ teachers from the local school districts to handle the program at each site. County recreation has been operating similar programs at its e centers for 12 years and, at present, 500 youngsters are involved. The department has also piloted a program at Majestic and Cottonwood Heights elementaries over the past year. As projected, the expanded pro- - gram would involve as many as 1,756 students and would cost $882,335. Those costs would be covered, however, by fees from those using the service. Department superintendent Gary Swensen said that the expansion is needed because of the increasing number of mothers forced into the workplace. Granite Districts representative Miriam Farnswoth told fellow board members that 40 to 50 percent of mothers within district are now working outside the home and up to 60 percent of those mothers children. have preschool-ag- e Farnswoth also addressed the problem of the so- - called latch key child, students as young as six years returning home from school to an empty house. Such youngsters must lock the door behind them and wait alone until parents or older brothers or sisters come home. She wondered, however, if the school districts would rather run those programs based within their schools. Other members felt that with county recreations experience and proven track record in the day care business it would be better if the educational system stepped aside and allowed the county to take charge. The programs would run from 3 to 6 p.m. during the school year and from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. during the summer months. County recreation would pay a rental fee not to exceed after$300 per site of for a school program. The proposed fee for the day camp program would be $500 to $600 per site for 30 to 50 children. multi-purpos- Parking Problems To Worsen WEST VALLEY. Parking problems experienced by students as a result of construction on Granger highs parking lot are expected to worsen in the coming weeks when road crews begin tearing into a section on 3600 West that runs in front of the school. Construction began this week on the heavily traveled street a few blocks south of the school and it could be just a matter of days before the roadwork forces students to find yet another place to park their automobiles. West Valley Public Works Director Glenn Weaver said Monday he did not know when the road in front of the school will be torn up, but noted the contract calls for all work r. to be completed by Also up in the air is the completion date for the Granger high parking lot, according to assistant principal Parley Jacobs. Recent rainstorms have kept the clay base too wet to apply the asphalt. Pouring the asphalt on a moist base would necessitate repeating the work a short time later, he added. Until the lot is completed, parents and students are being asked to park 300 spaces in approximately available north of the football field. Those who choose to park on 3600 West until road work begins run the risk of receiving tickets, though West Valley Police Chief Dave Campbell said Monday officers have generally been ignored no parking signs if cars are parked legally. Weve been giving tickets to cars blocking driveways or parked too close to corners, he said adding that most of the parking problems occured last week. When the 3600 West construction forces students off that street, Campbell recommends students park further away from the school on residential streets. Students should watch their speeds because there are more kids on those streets than on 3600 West, he warned. Applications Return To Commission WEST VALLEY. Two conditional use applications, denied here once already this summer by the City Planning Commission, will be back before the board this morning ( Thursday) at its 9 a.m. meeting. The commission is scheduled to meet in the new council chambers, downstairs in City Hall, 2470 So. Redwood Road. Southland Corporation is seeking permission for a 1 convenience store with gasoline pumps at 4615 So. Redwood Road while Karen Morris is requesting approval to operate a beauty salon in her home at 4877 Choctaw Avenue. Both applications were appealed last Thursday night to the City Council which remanded the matters back to the commission. The planners denied Southlands application to build the store on U4 acres on the northwest corner of the intersection June 14 on grounds a proposed realignment of 4700 South would create an island of land between the store and the new road. Concerns were raised by the commission that the island would become a weedpatch and recommended the developers wait to build the store until after the road is realigned. The Morris application was denied July 26 after two neighbors complained the business would commercialize the neighborhood and cause objectionable odors. Commission member Jerry Larsen said he voted for the motion reluctantly and that the neighbors objections swayed his decision. In other matters, the commission is expected to discuss a proposed ordinance which would require River developers along the Jordan easement for to maintain a future parkway development. The commission is also expected to consider a request for a health motel on 10 care facility and acres at 3675 So. Redwood Road. The board continued the application at its meeting three weeks ago despite that a objections from the developer would make the project delay financially unfeasible. Pioneer Valley Hospital To Observe Emergency Week GRANGER. Pioneer Valley hospital will observe National Emergency Center Week and the medical facilitys first anniversary during the coming week. Each day of the observance is geared toward a particular theme. Films and tours of the facility are scheduled Sunday (Family Day), Monday (Womens Day), Tuesday (Childrens Day) and Wednesday (Safety Day). There is also a color- ing contest for children in conjunc- tion with the event, with a coloring book awarded each child entering the contest. Subjects for some of the films to be shown during the week include childhood poisoning, exercise and relaxation, first aid, fire safety, and alcohol and drug abuse. All films will be shown in Pioneer Valleys educational annex north of the hospital. For further information, those interested may call Agency Receives Support MAGNA. Establishment redevelopment agency I - be working out a plan which would be financially feasible. Such fac- a with a of tors as size, present use, prior use and so forth would have to be taken into consideration, he said, but any redevelopment project hinges on financial feasibility. Larson explained that once the agency has been created, general Redevelopment targets called (RSAs) would be Survey Areas defined and specific project areas pinpointed within those targeted focus of revitalizing downtown Magna - received specific -- unanimous support at a public hearing held by the County Commission Thursday. The proposed redevelopment agency would emphasize economic development and economic revitalization by making low-coloans available to landowners and, in some cases, purchasing blighted areas outright in an effort to attract developers to the area. Describing Magna as Utahs best kept secret, Mike Stewart, commission chairman, said renewing Magnas downtown area, with its old mill town atmosphere similar to Park City, could attract both business and tourism to the area. Magnas redevelopment was prod posed as part of a recreational attraction for the northwest quadrant of the county, along with future development of Great Salt Lake beaches and marinas, Saltair, Kennecotts mine overlook and Indian archaeological sites in the Oquirrh Mountains. Renewal of downtown Magna could attract and tourists in keep California-boun- d Utah a few days longer, Stewart explained. Based on the Utah Neighborhood Development Act, the redevelopment agency would have to be created by county ordinance, but Stewart assured the audience such action would be taking place within the next few days. Tom Larson of the County Attorneys office explained that while revitalizing downtown Magna could be a model redevelopment project, the biggest stumbling block would st areas. Agency staff would then prepare plans, compile assessed valuations and names of all property owners involved, and find ways for property owners to participate in the overall redevelopment plan. The agency would have the power of condemnation regarding the purchase of properties involved, but such purchases would have to be made at fair market value. Larson also explained that increased property taxes resulting d from new develop- - preliminary redevelopment multi-facete- ment would become part of the financial base of the agency. The difference between property taxes before redevelopment and the increased taxes after development had taken place would be earmarked specifically for the agencys use, rather than going into general county coffers. This tax increment would then be a source of income for the agency to help pay expenses incurred in the redevelopment of that particular property. Although the proposed redevelopment agency would be created it would only be county-wide- , in the unincorporated operated areas of the county. Besides downtown Magna, other areas to be considered for future redevelopment projects include both Union and Holladay. wants around your do wants for somecan turn them into putting them in the area market place - the Green Sheet classified ad columns.
