FRUIT HEIGHTS The Davis County Park, located just off U.S. Highway 89 within Fruit Heights, has recently been acquired by Fruit Heights. All responsibility for upkeep and scheduling of the park has shifted to the city. A new park committee has been organized with City Councilman Richard Muhlestein heading the group. The county has already booked the baseball diamonds in the park for June and July and the first two weeks of August for church playoffs, said Muhlestein. The city will take over the scheduling of the diamonds after the 1987 season. The City Council went along with the committees proposal of charging a fee for the use of the park bowery. With the required $50 deposit! a key to the restrooms will be ' provided to the user. If the facilities are left clean a $25 refund will be given. Because of past vandalism, the City Council members feel they need to control the usage of the restrooms. A meter box will be installed on the lighting system at the tennis courts to control the use of the lights. The city will improve the ball diamonds by digging out the bases and putting in a sand, clay and sawdust mixture. A future diamond is also planned. s t s Staff photo by Rodney Wright Answering questions from reporters at the site of a chemical spill in North Salt Lake Tuesday morning is John T.

Cleanup of spills continues BRYON SAXTON LYNDIA GRAHAM Lakeside Review , A NORTH SALT LAKE toxic chemical spill at the North Salt Lake Industrial Park Tuesday morning claimed one life, injured 10 others and prompted the evacuation of X hundreds of people from homes and businesses. And, in Layton on Monday, 1,500 gallons of sulfuric acid overran holding facilities and spilled into the ground at the Davis County energy recovery burn plant near Hill Air Force Base about 8 p.m. No one was injured in the Layton spill, but crews from the county environmental health department were dispatched to North Salt Lake Tuesday morning to work on that spill, leaving cleanup at the burn plant unfinished. See SPILLS, page 2A 7 We have received to date more than six million returns and anticipate to receive more than five million, which will be in the center by Saturday. Green said filing a tax return late seems to be a growing trend, even though the majority of those filing late this year will receive a refund on their taxes. Green said he cannot explain the reason for the growing number of late filers. It is too late to file early, but not too late to file carefully. Every 10 or 11 out of every 100 tax returns filed during the next week will have errors on it, errors that will delay the refund, he said.
