This sewer project is the result of an engineering firm looking for work and an opportunity to make a lot of money If this project goes they will be getting approximately $32000000 out of the $243500000 that it sill cost (a nice sum) 2 - We have been told from day one that if we did not put the sewer in now we would be forced to do it later at a cost double or triple the cost of the project (Quote from the last letter written over the signature of the Mayor dated September 10 1991) This is nothing more than scare tactics and has been promoted by the agencies engineers right from the beginning It is true that this program from which our grant money is coming from wills top after September 301991 but there is no reason to believe that if we are forced to put a sewer that we will not get a better deal than this one (We know of one where they were told to put one in and it is only costing $13000 per year for sewer and water about $1 00 per month for both) There is no law or directive at the present time telling anyone that they must discontinue use of septic The regulatanks or cesspools tions require that if your cesspool fails then you must put in a Septic tank and drain field or drain pit that if anyone is We understand putting raw sewage directly into a water well that would have to be slopped not more than two or three in town 3 - We are told that if we do not put in a sewer we will stop progress in Centerfield and that we will not You Let’s examine this grow can get sewer in Gunnison for $800 would want month Why you per to pay $2450 and come to There are those who have if it is built told us that they will to the move away According ordinance once the sewer is in that monthly bill of $2450 must be paid whether you live in the house or not so if you have a little house for rent (or a big one) and it stands idle and the sewer isn’t paid when contact or the at office your walcrwill be shut off and you won’t be able to get it turned on again until all water and sewer fees arc paid The very day the project is approved the property values in Centerfield will drop If you should own property that is not on the sewer line you would have to extend the sewer at your own exIt makes any property not pense on the sewer line almost worthless 4 - Cue person told us the only reason they moved to Centerfield was because it was cheaper to live here Can you think of any other reason as you look at our town If this project goes through it will be more expensive Just consider the if the sewer goes your present cheapest payment in Centerfield will be $4275 per month (Water S 00 G Arbagc $725 and sewer $2450) 5 - What right does less than 30 of the people have to tell the rest of us we must pay for something we cannot afford and that we do not need Less than 50 even voted n the straw vote less then 30 of the water connections were represented as voting yes 6 - We are told that we will have to pay back all the engineering We simply do expenses to date not know at th is time Our representative tells us we may not have to pay it back It will be up to the community impact board after a The community hearing impact board has been operating under false information to a according letter written to the town council on April 27 1990 almost two months before the June meeting in 1990 The requirements of the agency as in that letter have not specified been met and until they ave been met we do not think that the project should go forward 7 - WE have not been properly informed no meeting was held to discuss the operating ordinance 8 - We feel that this project should not be pursued any farther until everyone is properly informed and then either a legal bond election is held or each water connection is given a chance to vote with the project standing on its own merits without any scare tactics Also thatare strictly suppositions we must know where the Community Impact board stand on the money used os far Sincerely Just a few of the many concerned citizens of the town of Vermile Draper Bessie Centerfield Jack Buchanan Ruby Draper Miles Anderson Buchanan Boy Scout Drive gets LUCKY FISHERMEN: These lucky young men were fishing at Otter Creek Reservoir then they caught these nice fish Pictured are Nicholas and Michael Rosenvall and Christoand Ruth pher Larsen They are the sons of Les Rosenvall Rosenvall and Kent and Pam Larsen of Gunnison "Battles not over yet" says Farm Bureau Proposed Hike in grazing fees killed by Senate Action by the US Senate taa proposed hike in public lands grazing fees by a vote of effectively killing a proposed increase in grazing fees on public lands Utah Farm Bureau Federation Booth Vice President Executive Wallentine says while the Senate action halts further consideration of the grazing fee hike int he Senate the issue could be resurrected spurring whole new round of lobbying by western livestock interests “We’ve won the first round in what will be a major fight in over this issue” he Congress warned bling The grazing fee appropriations measure was tabled after lengthy debate last week and intense lobinterbying by western agricultural The bill must now go to a ests conference committee before final action can be taken by Congress Senators Orrin Hatch and Jake Gam have contributed significantly to the tabling of this potentially destructive measure for rural Utah Wallentine ‘‘We will be noted counting on them heavily again in the weeks to come as well as other key members of Utah’s congressional delegation to defeat this particular grazing fee hike once and for all Free Help is waiting for small business owners If you’re a small business owner and have always wanted your business evaluated to make it more efficient the Small Business Institute (SBI) may be just the thing for The SBI provides business you owners the opportunity to receive counseling and business assessment busifrom qualified under the careful ness students guidance of a faculty member is jointly The SBI program sponsored by the Small Business and four year colAdministration located universities leges and Last year SBI the state throughout schools in the Utah helped moire than 80 businesses with in depth market research and suggestions SBI for management problems counseling is free and has provided valuable help to many small businesses contact For more information SBA 125 South Loy Rasmuson Utah SLC Room 2237 State 84138 or call underway locally There is a motto that says “A Scout is always prepared” and in the next couple of weeks they will be prepared to contact area residents for their annual contribution drive As you prepare yourself to donate to the scouting program this year you are reminded of the strong benefits that scouting brings to area youth in moral ethical and spiritual development Scouting is not a religion bulduty toGod is a basic tenet of the Scout Oath and Law and therefore endorsed by many religious organizations the world Search continued Centerfield residents voice their concerns throughout Scouting provides year round with some of the well activities known activities including bies pinewood derroad rallies and rendezvous There are some 18000 leaders in the Utah National Parks Council with over 46000 registered scouts This membership is divided as follows: 16145 Cub Scouts 15590 Boys Scouts 7895 Varsity Scouts and 6250 Explorers The five scouts service centers and a Scout mobile carry supplies and advancement sheets as well as maintain the records of the registered boys There are 19 Career Scouters that give direction to an average of 947 volunteers each There are 30 districts in the council that also provides leadership training to the volunteers This year there are four levels of $25 for those Friends of giving $50 for a family memScouting bership $100 for a Century Club and $250 for a leadership Gift Judge’s Initial Sample Ballot N2 126 Official Ballot for Gunnison City Utah October 8 1991 Recorder to sleep under water Sitatunga an African antelope has the rare ability -
