Show Tuesday, March 3, 1987 Sun Advocate, Price, Utah 3 A Mayor rejects fire truck grant plans By ARVA SMITH Staff writer HELPER Mayor Robert Olsen rejected, at least for the time being, an offer from Southeastern Utah Association of Governments to seek grant money for a new fire truck and fire station for Helper. Chris Jouflas, former mayor of Helper who is now doing volunteer work, said at the last meeting that there is grant money available. Bill Howell, AOG executive officer, would go ahead with a grant application if Helper is interested. Preparation of a grant is quite a job and Howell does not want to do it if you don not want it, Jouflas said. I would like to see more information about need, the mayor said. The firemen have been asked to supply more facts and figures, he said. The firemen met with the council a few weeks ago to say that they need a new backup fire truck and a new fire station. It is tough up there (Salt Lake City) in getting grants, Olsen said. We know what its like. I would hate to see a big package that would include both a grant and a loan. I would not feel comfortable about the people of Helper going into debt. A couple of years ago there was a move to get a new city hall, police station and fire station complex. It might be possible to get a fire truck and a reasonable fire station to include three bays and a small office, but the police can meet in the council room or in the auditorium. The mayor said there has been a delay in getting loan funds already approved by the Community Impact Board for building a sewer line to connect with Castle Gate Coal Co. because of new state procedures in issuing the money. The state is working on speeding up the process, he said, but the delay is causing some inconvenience to the coal company. The company is increasing its work force and is expecting to soon open bids for a new loadout facility. Castle Gate Coal has 187 employees and hopes to have as many as 210 right away, the mayor said. I am not here to sell anything, merely to make the offer. You know your business better than I do, Jouflas said.

The new devices, made by Siemens Hearing Instruments, Inc., automatically reduce background noise to the tolerance level of the individual user. This helps a person hear conversation much better than conventional hearing aids because of the reduction in background noise.

Councilman Bill Kirkwood asked if there is sufficient culinary water and sewage facilities. We have been working with the Price River Water Improvement District about the availability of water and sewage disposal, he said. Competition for the regional prison is expected to be quite keen since several other sections of the state have expressed strong interest, including Green River.
