In 1980, there were approximately 58,500 voters in the county, an average figure. But this year, the latest figures from Oct. 3 show that 75,500 Davis County residents have registered to vote in Novembers general election. The clerks office was anticipating there would be about 80,000 registered voters in the county before this years elections. That amounts to approximately half the population of Davis County. there have In another record-breake- r, bers, the clerk said. We have had hundreds of people a day come in to register. Its been hectic, but we are managing. Allphin said. Though voting registration is closed at the county courthouse, qualified residents can still register in their neighborhoods on Sept. 30 and 31, and Nov.; I. An ad in this weeks Lakeside Review lists neighborhood registration locations.

We are not able to comment on it until we have reviewed it, said base spokesman Lyman Barry. Among those involved in the decision will be civil engineers, flying operations officials and the base commander, among others, Barry said. But base officials dealt with have been very supportive of the resource recovery plant project, said County Commission Chairman Glen Saunders. We hope any difficulties that might be run across can be worked out, he said.

Centerville has encountered the problem on other developments, Jensen said. In Bountiful, he said, ordinances serve as guidelines and are often waived where circumstances do not warrant sticking to the ordinance. But he added that if Centerville chose to treat the Bountiful RDA as another developer rather than a municipality. Bountiful would probably accept the decision. He said that Bountiful has worked with other cities on a number of projects that benefit not just Bountiful, but all surrounding cities. He named the BARD landfill as an example. Bountiful bought the land for the site, but all cities use the landfill for a fee.
