Show August 6, 1980 Sun Chronicle, Sun 1 l ug Councilman Pierce Miss Roy contestants introduced collects and recollects By Dave Horner Roy City Councilman Jack Pierce collects antiques and relics of the past, and repairs them for his ur restores collections. Some of the items he has icstored include an antique solid oak filing cabinet, an no k roll top desk, an oak library table and a 1904 rmy saddle. The antique saddle and his own old riding saddle stand in a room full of western memorabilia. One of Pierces more unusual collections is a bookcase full of railroad insulators. Dozens of blue and green glass and ceramic insulators fill the shelves. Councilman Pierce is relatively new? in his position in Roy City government. When he was elected in January, it was the first time he had run for an elected office. Some local citizens approached him last year, wanting him to get involved in community government. They knew him from his past experiences in the U.S. Forest Service and as a in member several organizations. Over the years he was involved in the American Legion, the PTA, National Federation of Federal Employees, the Masons, Shriners, Elks, and National Guard. His belief that the tax dollar should be spent as if it was my own, was helpful in bringing support from the voters. There were three positions open for the council last election. Six candidates made it through the primaries, and he was one of the three elected. Coun- cilman Wayne Kimber and N. Lynn Taylor were the other two. Pierce says he is trying to be responsive to the needs and desires of the community. He says, I like to have input from the public, and I go with what they want to do. I think we should become better acquainted with the fire department, police, parks and other departments, and use that knowledge plus what the public wants, to do what has to be done, he said. Pierce reflected his concern over tax revenue loss and a need for com- mercial development, saying, I think we need to bring in new business to Seven young Roy women have entered the Miss Roy pageant to be held Aug 16 at 7:30 p.m. at Roy High School auditorium. increase our tax base and help relieve the taxpayers.

We have to have progress, but need to look at the costs, Pierce said. "If we have one citizen who was willing to donate $1,000, then there are probably enough other citizens who would ther time or contribute money, he said, referring to support for the new park. Pierce is also very concerned about vandalism and its cost to taxpayers. He said it is a shame to have to spend $50,000 for public rest rooms and then to have vendals tear them up so that they re only worth a tenth of that. voted outstanding junior English student and Royal of the Month and won first place in the Roy High spelling bee two years.

He says the used pipe is substantially cheaper than new pipe would be. The subdistrict which pipes pressurized irrigation water to customers is replacing the pipe because it began leaking. But, Kirkwood says the pipe can be utilized as storm sewer pipe because the storm sewer system is not a pressurized system. The storm sewer installation is taking place along 4400 South west to about 2100 West. The city is also utilizing a trench formerly used by the subdistrict, at a further savings to taxpayers. On 4800 South, extensive g A resurfacing and widening is being done, with funds contributed by Roy City, the Hooper Water District, Weber and a County developer, Wes Barton. Barton and the various agencies have projects or other interests in the street and surrounding property. The street was torn up when the Hooper Water District installed a water line and tank north of 4800 South. Kirkwood said the street has been total chaos since that work was started. But, he said, with all agencies pooling funds the street will eventually be resurfaced and widened as road.
