Aiir Vlic FROM DA75C Progress Replaces Tradition In Secondary School Signups Agreement On How To Solve Gridlock Hard To Find Among Public Officials by Ralph H. Goff Green Sheet Stsff Writer not only should the system be but the that upgraded, government - local, state and federal driver provide to help ease the traffic glut. "A lack of common courtesy," he said, is the source of many a traffic snarl. "Urban traffic gridlock is nothing new to this Subcommittee," State Rep. Boyd Warnick noted. "You are seeing it in numerous parts of America. As perceptive as were the planners of our highway system, they could not forsee that traffic flow on urban and rural interstate highways would exceed design capacity by such a margin even before completion of the system." "We would be better served in this valley by concentrating on a light rail system as our first priority," Salt Lake Mayor Palmer DePaulis contended. "We need to move in that direction as rapidly as we can move. By 1995 we need to have that system in place and explained that his city was in a unique position concerning both growth and traffic. "Of the 6,000 building permits issued in Utah last 1,000 of jear, them were in We have had an increase of 5,000 in population in the last year," he noted. While the growth rate may have slowed a bit, growth is expected to continue, he said. He also explained that Sandy has a young population, wit! school-agchildren forming a significant percentage of the residents there. "In four or five years, we can expect to have the highest concentration of drivers in the world," he told the Subcommittee. "Weve got to build for the future." Riverton Mayor Dale Gardiner explained that due to the growth patterns in the valley, "essentially all of us work in north Salt Lake County and we all live in south -- Second in a series TAYLORSVILLE. "There are three we would things recommend to the Subcommittee," Lowell Durham told members of the U.S. House of Representatives here last week concerning Utahs traffic problems. "First, we need additional funds to maintain the existing system; we need to build a light rail system and improve east-wecommuter access; and we need to expand Interstate 15 and improve st the interchanges." Durham, president and chief executive office of ZCMI department stores, represented the chambers of commerce in the before House the valley Government Activities and Subcommittee Transportation field hearing at Salt Lake Community College Feb. 22. As head of the BusinessGovernment Alliance (which has members from both area local chambers and government), Durham said the problems associated with traffic here have been of primary - e residents of his city, he told the Subcommittee. Education, however, would be needed to take Riverton residents out of their cars and put them on commuter buses connecting to the light rail system. we could "Intellectually, understand the need to travel light rail, but emotionally we will still continue to use our cars and trucks," he said. "We havent even got used to the idea of giving up our horses yet." Gardiner called for "a solution" two-prong- -- -- the to look got which at both systems at the same time," he testified. Given the relatively unpopulated nature of the far southwest area, Riverton, he said, "is the last frontier for economic development in the county." While some jobs may migrate to more open areas, alleviating some of the traffic snarls, traffic would remain a major concern to data processing frustrated parents and students at registration time. It seems that students who wanted to pursue a particular course, say art for example, were often unable to do Salt Lake County." operable."

Southwick recommended that Sandy Mayor Steve Newton districts division. Less guesswork will be involved in what is required and what is elective. Course titles and numbers will be common for all secondary schools in the district. This will give students the ability to register or transfer without the mystery of what their last years course was compared to the new, he explained. In tine past, the district has been plagued with a number of corridor along improved the with other highway plans in the southern and western portions of the county, which Kano endorsed wholeheartedly. "Weve the new school, many phone calls and much time has been lost trying to match the new course with the previous one. A good example is promotion from junior high school to high school where two schools are automatically involved. Each has had its own titles and course numbers. This is not to mention transfers and other placements within the district. Almost all of that guesswork and lost time will be eliminated this spring with the new system, Christensen noted. All secondary schools within the district will now have the same course titles and the same course numbers. If a student is unsure of his progress toward graduation from high school, especially if he transfers to another school within the district, a short visit with his counselor will put him at ease.
