Editor: At a time becoming when it is increasingly popular to criticize public officials, I would like to ex- press appreciation, (based on my observation as City Recorder for the past 25 years) for leaders in my community who have played an important part in the development of the city and to whom, I feel, we owe a debt of gratitude. Since the organization of the town 43 years ago, in 1934, I feel that we have enjoyed the consistent, dedicated leadership of men who have served with little or no compensation for their efforts and, also important, who have had the cooperation of citizens of the community, citizens who could have selfishly said, We dont want town to grow when asked to support bond issues for future needs. It has been my privilege to work with the last six mayors - H. Dale Phillips, J. Parley H. Wilbur Spackman, Berrett, Calvin S. Chandler, William A. Bailey and Eldon D. McColley - and many fine councilmen. Recognizing the value and the THRU TO MARCH those unique characteristics that make the area one of a kind. It is our to work with civic policy organizations and governmental bodies to ascertain the special needs of a community and respond to them. Lakeview Heights will follow that policy and will be a credit to North Ogden and Weber County. 31st, 1977 HUGE DISCOUNT PRICES ARE AVAILABLE ON ALL NEW AND USED UNITS IN STOCK. and LISTED BELOW ARE JUST A FEW EXAMPLES Home NEW by Dr. Daryl J. McCarty Executive Secretary Utah Education Association 1977 SUNBIRD You might feel a bit upset when you hear a doctor describing something on your hand as being a circumscribed protuberance of the corium. Relax. Its probably just a wart. You might also feel a slight rise in your blood pressure when your mechanic expresses a fear that the worm gea, thermostat or camshaft in your car is on the fritz. Your lawyer, TV repair specialist, florist or barber may also use words that mystify you. Virtually every profession and vocation has its own specialized language. Yes, even educators. These languages are readily understood when used in conversations between persons in the same line of work. However, the words or phrases can be a pain. For example, follow this sentence closely: Our schools individualized learning program with emphasis on a continuum of multiethnic, academically enriched learning using the identified intellectually gifted child as the agent or director his own learning. You have just read the worst education sentence of 1976, as determined by the Education Press Association of America. That sentence was in a letter from a school principal to a parent. If you found yourself counting to ten after you read the worst sentence in education last year, stop for a moment and think about how your children react to the dinner table conversation of parents. Theyre sophisticated. Parents use exotic words, and they make kids curious. Maybe children get just as resentful as you would if youd gotten that letter from the principal. But dont change your speech pattern to the dialogue youd expect to find in a second grade reader. Just answer cheerfully and accurately when your child asks you to explain when you meant when you said continuum. cross-grade- need of guidance, as did the founders of our nation, they have opened each meeting with a petition for divine influence. They have realized that it is impossible to please 100 percent of the people they serve, all the time, but I have been close enough to their work to know that they have diligently tried to do what is best for the majority of the people they serve, and for the future of the community. They have at times made decisions under stormy decisions which pressure were made after long, concerned study of the problem, which have been recognized as wisdom many years later. They understood the need those who have preceded North Ogden was one of the first cities in the state to adopt a Master Plan as a guide to future growth. that an inRecognizing a dividual has basic American right to subdivide and develop his property under proper controls, they have tried to deal fairly with these individuals, and at the same time protect the rights of other citizens of the community, which isnt an 3995 easy task. It has been rewarding to greet the many new people moving into the community, choice new residents who were attracted to the area because of the groundwork of for proper planning, and them. In an effort to preserve precious heritage, the city fathers recently organized a history committee, who is on diligently working assembling facts for a published history.

"This represents a drop of over 19 percent in the last year, Hansen noted, and a drop of over 35 percent in the past two years. This comes at a time when most national organizations report that shoplifting is still on the increase. The American Federation of Retailers is reported to have revised its estimate of shoplifting losses upwards to $8 billion annually, from $5 billion only three years ago. Other national organizations estimate shoplifting losses even higher, and on the increase. Even more significantly, the Attorney General said, shoplifting does not occupy its traditional place as the most frequently committed offense among juveniles, based on Juvenile Court referrals. Instead, it is a lowly third, behind theft and possession of alcohol. This is the first time since I can remember, that shoplifting has not been first or second among referrals to Juvenile Court, Hansen commented. Hansen credited much of the drop in juvenile shoplifting to mass media support of the statewide campaign which began in May of 1975, with the theme Shoplifting Doesnt Pay ...

According to Wahlquist it is estimated the project will initially involve a local work force with a payroll of $300,000. During the 12 year absorption period it is estimated Lakeview Heights will have an annual local payroll in excess of $1,600,000 and will involve some 200 local people in the labor force.

The Developer will furnish and install all related structures and piping for storm sewers to the extent required by each phase of development.

The Developer will be reimbursed for 75 percent of these costs in four equal annual installments. However, 25 percent, $30,000 will be a contribution by the Developer. In addition, the Developer will replace the canal bridge on 450 East during development of the initial phase of Lakeview Heights and will assume the entire cost of installing the new bridge.
