"When we moved here there wasn't a basement, just a crawl space. That first winter wc were here, we dug out a basement by hand and hauled out the dirt in a wheelbarrow. Our boys weren't very big but our oldest daughter and boys helped and wc got that basement built by laying cement blocks." she said. In 1951. the city put in an sewer pipe, assuming that at the most a hundred families might be connected in the future. Lena said the sewer line has been redone several times since to allow for the growth in the area. She also remembers when gas lines were added and said that was a big help. I'p until that time, the family had an oil heater in the living room to heat the house. They had a coal range with a jacket to heat the water. Although there is a modern electric range in the kitchen, the old stove is still used to heat the home, especially in the winter. "We burn a lot of wood in that stove, but, oh, that fire is nice." She remembers that her children used to love to sit by the stove and warm their feet on the stove door in the winter. Lena said she still prefers some things cooked in the wood stove "even though it is kind of old and dilapidated." "I would rather bake cookies any day in that old stove because they bake. They don't just sit and dry out like they do in the electric range."

"I couldnt stand them," she said. The insides were too hard to paint so she covered them with Walltcx, which was quite a chore. The cabinets go clear up to the ceiling and have considerable room for storage. When the Higgs bought the house, the only other building on the property was a barn. The first outbuilding they built was a garage. Other sheds and another garage were added in later years. They added a back porch after the basement was built because the only entrance to the basement was an outside trap door. The porch was closed in and used as a bedroom for their two sons for several years. Two of their daughters slept on the east side of the living room. One more daughter was born while the family lived there. When the children were old enough, the family became inwhich began a volved with tradition for Lena.

Barlow believes the travel surveys themselves will go a long way toward encouraging people to use more responsible modes of transportation. Talking about it is a good step, she said.

Provost said he was surprised at how many miles he had driven after he tracked his mileage for a few days. He believes the surveys will help people become more aware of their own driving habits.

Her assigned partner can help, but when that partner is absent, she has to wait for assistance from the teacher.

A lot of people are concerned, Thompson said. This hits kind of hard on people. Thompson pointed to other cities that charge considerably less for similar services. Bouchard said South Weber cannot be compared directly with other cities as they have been allowed differing loan obligations from the state. Furthermore, he said numerous other cities can charge considerably less for sewer service as they have aging systems that have long Willis & Carver been paid for. It will take us 20 years to pay off the bond, Bouchard said. But he said the city has already grown since the sewer was begun. He said additional hookup fees will bring in a surplus of revenues. However he said this surplus will not translate into lower user fees until well after the sewer is complete and the city is sure it can meet all its obligations. Councilman Reid Stark said he agrees that the fees seem excessive. He said they are a reflection of todays prices. Stark reminded the residents that previous city councils voted down installing a sewer on two separate occasions. He said hookup fees would have only been a few hun- dred dollars if the system would have been built a decade ago.
