Kaysville mayor says its so By RUTH MALAN Standard-Examine- r correspondent KAYSVILLE - Is property at the Business Park priced too high, and working against the city rather than for it? 1 Mayor Arthur Johnson thinks so. He wants the city to make a few changes in the way the park is marketed. Those changes might come after a work session on the park later this month.

Only one lot in the park has been used . Kays-;vil- le this year and that was done in an exchange with Jensen RV, At least six businesses were turned down, including a soccer complex.

The road has an estimated Cost of $300,000, and water lines are already in place. Johnson also suggested developing an attractive entrance to the park. I like your comments, said Councilman Joe Hill, we are overdue in getting businesses in there. There are some lots sold, but building has not begun. Johnson would like to see the city push those owners into getting started. The development hasn't been promoted, said City Manager John Thacker. We are not out selling it, but we have had a lot of interest.
