They include The Chains, Lone Rock Beach, Picnic Beach at Wahweap, and The Coves. Broken glass at these areas has not only caused an unsightly litter problem, but has also created unnecessary hazards.

The several questions on the survey will give the city the citizens ideas for capital spending over the next several years. How do you feel about the priorities of water, sewers, curb and gutters and their importance in your life and the lives of your fellow citizens. Rather than a mail survey, the folks at Vermillion felt that the money could benefit the coffers of one of the school or club group. This also gives the young citizens a chance to be part of the process that will influence the growth or their city and provide the city with the needed information. out garbage bags and remind visitors of the no glass container" rule. The National Park Service encourages those who plan on viewing the fireworks from this vantage point to take an extra trash bag and clean up around their viewing area.
