"I think we need to be thinking very seriously about those problems," he said, "and pay the price now in order to get there." Yet one of Ihe most obvious steps a lax intoward paying that price was ruled out by Gov Norm crease Bangerter during his 1984 campaign "I think the chances of a tax increase without the support of the governor are virtually nil, said Mathe Long-ter- & Special to The Tribune The Richfield PubRICHFIELD lic Library was recently placed on the National Register of Historic Places after application by the state. - v ' Moreover, he does not believe a single legislative session is an adequate or appropriate forum for building a statewide consensus on the need for more taxes "If we are going to go for a tax increase, we ought to bring it up early on. take up the cudgel for it and defend it. It's too important to confine it to the legislative session going on I think ypu ought to make a commitment to it, he said But instead of progress toward that kind of commitment, Matheson says he sees lawmakers preparing to beat a retreat. "I see some tax changes coming, but they're changes to cut revenue back. 1 see Ihe unitary tax being opposed and a continued erosion in our lax system," he said The best thing 2JpGD05fc expediency The worst thing lawmakers could do, he said, would be to shy away from providing public schools with a "substantial increase" in support. Although he leans toward conserving last year's $76 million reserve for flood repairs, Matheson said tapping some of the money and arranging to replace it from another source if needed would probably work.

She said the libraries served an unparalleled role in the establishment1 of community supported, free public libraries in Utah. The Richfield Library was constructed during 1913 and 1914 after the City Council approved a building site in 1912 The council also approved an appropriation of $1,000 a year for maintenance. The Carnegie Foundation provided $10,000 for construction. According to historians, the level of library services began to deteriorate in 1930s and 1940s.
