Betty Tyner was also appointed as the 504 coordinator. She surveyed county buildings for modification for use by handicapped persons. The 18 county buildings receiving federal funds are gradually becoming more accessible to everyone," he said. Plans are being made to install floorp ramps, handrails, ing surfaces, visual fire alarms and cuts in curbs for wheelchairs into the facilities. This should cost about $30,000 for additional improvements in any remaining building. Miles estimated. This process has been going on for some time, since the law was Howsigned into, effect ever, last year a deadline of 1987 was set for these buildings to non-sli- . comply with the law. Congress recently voted to withdraw any revenue sharing funds from counties not complying with the law. But this isnt why we are making these improvements. We have been moving along slowly but surely on them for some time, said County Commissioner Harry Gerlach. The laws provisions hadnt recently been written into county regulations, he said. When the county courthouse in Farmington was remodeled in 1980, improvements for the handicapped were added, Miles said, to bring us up to snuff on the requirements. The first buildings to recieve any improvements will probably be the county library branches in Clearfield, Bountiful and Far- mington.

United Way Promoted the United Way is trying to broaden its base in Davis County," according to a local spokes-- , effort. man for the g This years goal for United Way contributions is $78 million, said Vernile Hess, chairman of the local board for United Way. Last; year, six cities, in the. . county' participated in the caro-paign, he said. Hess is trying to get local mayors to involve their cities in the effort. He is asking that city officials enforse the' campaign. In' 1983, $346,000. was raised in Davis County alone. Last year, city employees plegded $3,400 to fund organiza-- . tions in Davis County. These organizations assist Davis County residents, he said. That amounts fund-raisin- : to $8.50 per employee per yearly contribution. Right now, were trying to get all cities in. the county to participate for the best year ever, he added. . , : . City administrators should pick a United Way coordinator to run the city campaign, Hess recom" mended. County employees last year contributed $7500 to the effort. The money raised went to assist Davis County residents, he emphasized. Hess suggested a friendly competition be staged between county and state employees to see which group could contribute the most money to the campaign.
