Its been about six years since Bambi and I aline, a mate and female. took up residence in a pasture next to the Brower house. Many baby fawns have been bom since then. The timid animals are popular with everyone in town. They are wonderful. Our kids love them," Tammy said. They cat out of our hands and beg to have their head scratched. If they know you have food, they'll come right over. The deer recognize different family members and they arent concerned when we handle the new babies. Obtaining fallow deer is no simple process. Willow Park Zoo in Logan, overpopulaied with fallow deer, contacted one of the Browers neighbors. The neigh- bor passed the possibility of adopting the deer along to Brower, who jumped at the chance to make this an anniversary gift. The surprise arrived a little late because Brower first had to apply and wait for a permit from the Utah Fish and Game. The zoo kindly make the delivery along with instructions on deer care. They aren't too difficult to raise, Tammy said. The deer graze in the pasture during summer and eat commercial feed in P-n- tlr.

"I've always had this problem. Even as a child I had a pet alligator." Brad admits he's always had a soft spot for injured or ill animals. He likes to take them home and nurture them. The Browers have kept every new fawn, so the original couple have multiplied into a small herd. La IHiffnffft mp rrst for animals.

One woman wanted a bag of deer droppings to sprinkle on her porch Christmas morning. She needed proof said her Santa was there. Although small, the deer have bristly coats of coarse, thick hair. Theyre light brown with white spots and stand near S feet tall. The bucks grow new antlers every year and shed them in the spring. The next set is always bigger," Tammy said.

Five buses would travel 200 West out of town. Others would take Lagoon Drive and Burke Lane north. Seven buses would service Farmington students, he said. Barney cited safety concerns of the narrow and "blind State Street overpass some buses would have to use, noting traffic would move through the Clark Lane Historic District, past a park at 400 W'est State, compounding an already dangerous situation. West State Street resident Mark Forbush worried about the number of daily trips buses and drivers of cars parked at the compound would add to the area. I moved my mailbox to 300 West because I couldn't get across State Street due to traffic, he said. Installation of a credit card fuel station would mean potential traffic from the 'districts yellow maintenance vehicles and even from other government entities, and 'Lega especially during cy Highway construction, all adding more traffic, he said. This bus depot is a stretch. Its not permitted in this zone," said another area resident, Lewis Clark. However, Commissioner Kimball Wallace noted that the business park zone allows an office complex of up to 54,000 square feet on such a site, generating thousands of potential trips per day. I favor this location. The traffic problem has to be solved regardless of what goes in. It has to be consistent with the improvements to the State Street overpass. However, he questioned de tr Planner From 1 make him aware of the ordinance during an executive session as a part of a recent council meeting. The ordinance prohibits conflict of interest by city officials. We considered Paynes letter (of June 27 to the mayor) and felt that under the circumstances, an infraction of the ordinance had occurred because he discussed it (matters related to the proposed bus garage and state powers granted to school districts) publicly with others. We decided to remind him of the city ordinance, to make him aware of it. He was perfectly willing to follow the guidelines. He abstained (from discussion) the week before (May 22), the mayor said. In the letter accompanying the citizens petition it said that Payne is acting for the school district, not the city, in his position and that is a conflict of interest. The residents went on to claim that in one planning commission meeting, where public was present, he did not comment. In the next meeting, he did not declare any conflict and spoke out. David Barney, one of the residents who signed the petition, said, Its pretty obvious that there was a conflict of interest on Paynes part. We want to make sure to put them on notice that some residents are concerned. This all stemmed from discussion about a proposed bus storage facility on 32 acres purchased by the school district northwest of the citys public works building and northeast of the county justice complex. In Paynes letter to the mayor, he said ...there was never a request for special privileges on behalf of the school district nor was there a vote on the issue. I did not then object nor do I now object to a public hearing or object to notification to anyone (alerting property owners of the public hearing). My intentions were honorable and meant to inform the commission of the state statutes (allowing school districts to build facilities without having to legally go through all the procedures reentiquired of ties). The citys experience in dealing with other jurisdictions should serve as a reminder of what we all must deal with. It for anyone would be to be appointed and to withhold any knowledge of information that would benefit the process in an informative manner, Payne wrote. laying any new construction in west Farmington until transportation improvements are made. There is a big push to get the widening done by 2002, Petersen said of the Utah Department of Transportation efforts. Im amazed at the speed used so far in construction, he said, adding, I dont know when the State Street overpass will done...maybe five years. We in Farmington have a be re- sponsibility to accommodate what is zoned, Wallace said. The city has a responsibility to provide safe roads, we cant just look to Uncle Sam. I have no qualms tabling this. However, Commissioner Con stance Hughes, an attorney, said as long as they conform to our standards under state law we really cant deny it. We dont have a specific noise or traffic ordinance that could be imposed, especially when school districts operate under state, not city, statutes.
