Rival By Eric McMullin Tribune Staff Writer SANDY The administration , here sees the hiring of plans examin, er Jody Hilton as further proof of this citys growth in size and status. ' For one thing, Mr, Hilton is the former plans examiner for Salt Lake City, Utahs largest metropo- lis. Also, he was willing to take a slight pay cut to move to Sandy, partly because of personal reasons but also because the city offers a in Mr. Hiltons expertise, . challenge large building'construction. I feel Sandy is young and grow-- ' ing and will equal Salt Lake City in the years to come, said Mr. Hilton. JThe population growth has to move South and this way, I can get in on Che basement and go to the top. As the citys lone plans examiner, Mr. Hilton is responsible for ensuring construction of every building and domicile in the city meets fire , and building codes. As he explains, ' Architects like pretty buildings. We like safe buildings. We Have Professional huge shopping mall centering r , ' i Community Development Director Michael Coulam Is pleased with Mr. Hiltons hiring. We feel that in Jody we have a professional in that 'position with expertise in large buildings. This is the type of review that is needed for the growth we an- ticipate. As an example, Mr. Coulam said the city had to go outside the city for the expertise needed to examine construction of Alta View Hospital two years ago.

Mr. Hilton was hired three months ago and replaces Jeff Gangnes, who resigned to take a position in Washington, D.C. His starting pay is $17,490 annually. South High Graduate Mr. Hilton lives in West Jordan, with his wife and two children. He is a graduate of South High School in Salt Lake City and began working for the city in 1970 right out of high school. He began in the water department after taking summer jobs in the construction industry. In 1975, he became a building inspector for the city and was promoted to plans examiner in 1980. As the citys plans examiner, he supervised the largest and most complicated buildings in the state. He said he is pleased with the atmosphere in Sandys city offices and sees the position as a career move for him. It helps to have good officials working with me. This position isn't as challenging in some aspects as Salt Lake City and the change in people, atmosphere and pace suits me. He said he is especially pleased with weekly meetings Sandy holds with developers and all departments the developer must satisfy before building. This is a unique set-u- p . . . and it makes the process much smoother. Its not often that this can happen because most cities are too big for their departments to get together like that. 1 4 . t ltJk X; A :&:rn t4W-- r & . materials, services and programs for adults as well as children.

A lot of people dont even think of visitir the zoo when snow is on the ground, he said, but winter is actually one of the prettiest times of year to visit. Surprisingly, most of the residents of the Hogle Hotel are comfortable outdoors during winter months. Folar bears and penguins arent the only animals who love the snow. Even the zebras, who hail from a warm African climate, enjoy the frosty weather. Camels Content Mr. Farnsworth said camels are content with the cold, and appropriately, so are snow leopards. For critters who cant tolerate nippy, winter conditions, a special winter quarters is set up in the basement of a zoo office building. The quarters serve as a winter home for ant eaters, parrots, flamingos, emus, ostriches and spider and Capuchin monkeys. Elephants can tolerate small amounts of cold weather, said Mr. Farnsworth, but the animals are kept indoors during winter so they wont slip on ice and pull leg muscles. Giraffes, rhinos and hippos are partial to warm weather, he noted, so they also are kept indoors. ' - USA 'A Gods print cism: on Trjtoun SoH Photo Probation Expires Automatically, Attorney General Opinion Says ence to judicial termination, apparently with the intent that probations expire automatically on the dates set by dourts in each case. The probationer may extend his probationary period, intentionally or otherwise, by leaving the state or concealing his whereabouts from his probation officer, the opinion said. This prohibits probationers from fleeing the state to avoid probation and coming back when their probationary terms have run. Probation goes on hold stops running while a probationer avoids jurisdiction of the court and control of his probation officer. While automatic termination may prove a hindrance to authorities, it serves a worthwhile purpose of giving the probationer the advantage of knowing when his probation is up. He knows that his probation cannot be terminated retroactively and proceedings brought against him after the date of the expiration. Ape Homecoming Big apes, like the gorilla and orangutan, have always been kept inside the zoos Great Ape House, but in about six months, will be moved to a new indooroutdoor facility. Dan the gorilla (named after retired Tribune columnist Dan Valer-tine- ) needs a new cage, said Mr. Farnsworth, because he is gradually tearing his old one apart. Hes just rambunctious, said the zoo director, Hes outgrown this building and needs another one. Hes just a normal, healthy gorilla, who feels the need to show off his strength. While all the animals at the zoo seem content, the tropical birds have the best deal of all. They live in an enclosed tropical year-roun- d climate, complete with palm trees and a sun roof. Theyre used to luxury, said Mr. Farnsworth, and we do our best here to provide it. -- by Fronk Porschoti Klondike, Hogle Zoos polar bear,Aeems surprised to see a human, as people tend to '.hibernate in winter and not visit. Probation ordered for defendants convicted of crimes expires automatically, and authorities seeking to extend or revoke a probation must do so before the date is up or the convicted person is a free man or woman, the Utah Attorney Generals Office has advised. Assistant Attorn jy General Brent A. Burnett told state Division of Corrections Assistant Director Stephen V. Love that while the Utah high court hasnt ruled on the question, the statutes in other states say that probationary periods expire automatically. Defendants who commit crimes or otherwise violate their probations, in the last days of their probationary periods, are free from sanction if authorities cant act in ti..ie, Mr. Burnett suggested.
