Show THE GREEN SHEET Thursday, Sept. S, 1988 COMMUNITY NEWS Lights To Continue To Shine Near City Hall WEST VALLEY. Tenants who reside in he fourplexes south of City Hal here can look forward to light shining from their existing 13 street lights and possibly 12 new street lights to aid them in the dark. The City Council voted to allow the city to step in and assist the fourplex owners in collecting the necessary fees to maintain the street lights and existing purchase 12 more. The bulbs in the street lights standing in the neighborhood now, are unscrewed because some of the buildings owners arent paying the $20 a month to keep them lit. An additional $65 a year per building is required for the new lights. "We need your help in wielding a big stick down on them," said building owner Robert Warren. He said most owners of the 52 buildings are in favor of the lighting improvements, but the unconcerned owners are hindering improvements. However, the citys big stick costs money when utilizing city attorneys and paying litigation The details for expenses. collection are yet to be worked out. Putting a lien on the property 4-- 3 is one suggestion. City Manager John Newman Councilman Gerald Wright, although concerned about the street lights, voted against the proposal. "It scares me to look at the possible headaches that could come to the city from this and the tremendous litigation," he said. "Im not sure the end result would be justified." While the city and the landlords are turning on lights, Robert I. Bowles will begin construction on a house for his It sounds simple enough, but Bowles couldnt get a building permit because the surety company told Bowles not to sign the bond form. If he doesnt sign the from, the subdivision is not recorded with the city and therefore a building permit cannot be granted. The forms for bonding requirements are currently being revised by the Utah Municipal Cities Assn, so that all cities will have the same forms and criteria. "Weve lived here about 35 years and were hoping to build another 50 homes," said Bowles. "Let us pay for the building permit so we can get started." Since Bowles lives in the area and his reputation as a contractor is known in the city, the City Council voted unanimously to begin construction of Bowles home in the Kings son-in-la- said, "Its a burden, subsidizing those owners who fail to pay."

What action would you take first if you found water leaking into your basement and a pool forming in your backyard? And it kept coming. Lois Ashby of 3179 South Branden Dr. (4920 West) lives with her family in a home that borders a field where a farmer irrigates using canal water. At times, when the farmer irrigates, an overflow of water seeps into the Ashbys property. The water settled in her yard twice in July and most recently, the last week of August. Who for is responsible correcting the water intrusion, and most importantly who do you call to stop the water immediately before your basement is flooded? Ashby called the citys public works department Friday, Aug. 26. Russ Willardson, the public works department director, sent over a pump. Then the Ashbys looked at the field behind their yard to determine why the excess water took refuge at their house. They confronted the farmer, who rents the land, about the drainage problem and requested that he discontinue irrigating until the water is cleared up. However, the farmer needs to irrigate to prevent his alfalfa from drying up. On Sunday the Ashbys had to call the public works department again for an additional pump because one pump wasnt enough to do the job. "This situation is a constant strain on our family," said Ashby. "We are under a lot of stress." Ashby said she and her husband were up every hour' and a half filling the pumps with gas for five days. Not only did they have to contend with the unrelenting noise the pumps make, but had to sacrifice sleep to feed the pumps, which cost then about $12 a day. "The damage and the costs were to the stress," minimal compa-xd said Ashby. She ' called Brent Mayor Andcison Sunday for his advice and he told her call the city attorney. Monday, Ashby called the city attorney to find out what recourse she had. She wanted to file for an injunction against the farmer in the Third Circuit Court to have the water turned off. She found out she needed to file a complaint first, but to do this one must have the police evaluate the situation and then determine whether a complaint is in order. Ashby then called the police and they were unable to find fault with the farmer and therefore couldnt cite him, and Ashby could not gei. an injunction against him. "The neighbors walk by and gawk at us," she said. The police were back late Monday night because one of the neighbors thought the Ashbys were running their lawn mower and the noise was disturbing them. The pumps produced the noise. "The worst part is the feeling of having no control," says Ashby. The city attorney advised her to call a private attorney because it is a civil matter. Ashby doesnt want to go through the time and money plus the added stress that litigation brings. Besides, she understands the farmers needs, but would just like to resolve the year-roun- nine-mont- h water intrusion in her yard and her life. In the meantime, the Ashbys had to call the public works department again to replace one of the pumps that wasnt working efficiently. The pumps are big. They have a fire hose attached and on a gas engine. You run they cant just go pick one up from the city if you need one.

Willardson. In Ashbys case, Willardson said he found an old drainline that went through the field to the subdivision where Ashby lives, taking the water to her yard. "We cut off a ditch with our backhoe to help the drainage and were going to block off the old drainage line, and the owner of the land has agreed to clean out the tail water ditch," explained Willardson. called also canal Ashby irrigation companies and alwere though they helpful, are not ultimately they responsible for the excess water. Apparently, there are about three canal companies responsible for delivery and transport of the canal water to weirs where a certain cubic feet of water per second is measured and that is the end of their responsibility, according to City Manager John Newman. "If we wanted to we could the said water," regulate Newman. The state law authorizes municipalities to take over water systems, but the West Valley City Council is not interested. Newman said a public hearing wa3 held about four years ago and people were very adamant about keeping the government out of their water. Another body involved in water maintenance is the ditchmaster. He is appointed by those people who own shares of water to ensure the order of turns for the water use. He is also not responsible for the excess water in someones yard. "Ive been a private eye," said Ashby. "Ive done all the legwork. Ive found a lot of information. I wish there had been someone to call that would have provided me with all the information to save me the time and frustration." Newman said, "Its a confusing and frustrating matter. If we had clear answers we would regulate the water." With no clear answers and cost being another obstacle, Newman said he doesnt see the situation changing in the future. "Its a real pain, Willardson Davidson noted. ooooooooooooooooooooooo' "Its a civil matter, said Willardson. 'We tell people its between you and the guy using the water, but nobody will take any responsibility. Its not our responsibility, were just trying to help out." A way to help curtail the escaping water is to keep the water drained off the field by keeping the tail water ditches cleaned out and clear so that the water wont sit there and saturate the land, he said. "We have no control over irrigation. The city is not involved. We try to stay away from irrigation problems," said "Its obvious to me that theyre just tired," board member Lynn ts LEGAL NOTICE ANOTHER SUMMONS ADDRESS.
