The crowd of residents, which filled the small city hall meeting room and spilled out the door, was geared up to oppose a rezone of approximately 35 acres from agricultural to residential and left reluctantly. The ordinance, which exceeds state ordinance requirements in the matter of notification of nearby residents when a rezone is proposed, requires that the party petitioning for the rezone compile a list of all property owners within 300 feet of the proposed rezone.

The only problem, he said, was the subjective way the city was judging noise pollution and pleasing aesthetics. Councilman Brent Allen thought the commercial use to be developed would be more of a buffer between residential and The city ty. The proposed trail will lead to the lake, but sewer district officials are concerned about people straying ofT the trail and onto the application area. The district has asked the city to enter into an interlocal agreement to establish the trail. The city would develop and maintain the trail and place warning signs about getting ofT the trail, according to city manager John Thacker. The agreement would be written so that it could easily be modified by the district in case the district needed to move the trail or other arrangements. bio-soli- bio-soli- Councilman Darrell Horne questioned the need for the trail, but councilman Reed Nelson says the trail is needed for recreational walking or jogging and and have off for hunters to use to get to the area for hunting. It is a little disconcerting to have them running dogs out through recently applied sludge, Myers said. The trail is presently a dirt farm road which the sewer district also uses to access its property. It was suggested the trail be asphalted because some hunters take three- - or four-wheele- rs out there to hunt. It is the primary access road for farming, Myers said. I havent seen any abuse of the area, Nelson said. But Myers is concerned that if the trail is not made of asphalt, it will develop ruts and motorcyclists could get hurt. A lot of people in the west go running. Someday in the future it may require a paved stnp down there, like the one from Ponds Park to Shepard Lane, Nelson said. ed.

City Manager Alex Jensen said he appreciated that developers were trying to meet terms of the agreement and would give the project another look. He still argued that the city had a right to be subjective. The city has the right to say, Thats nice, but we dont want it, for any reason," Jensen said.

But now it could become a reality if the sewer district and the city can enter an interlocal agreement on the use of the trail. Once again the council discussed the proposed trail, which begins near Shepard Lane and the southeast corner of Allies Acres Subdivision and runs west along the north side of the Central Davis Sewer District proper- The Wash for a street through its property when it is needed, Thacker said. The sewer district uses the s. land in question for drying are dried The on the farm, and according to district manager Leland Myers, of it is turned innearly one-ha- lf to compost. It costs the distnet $20 a dry ton to process and would cost $160 to $240 a ton if it was hauled away. This is the cheapest alternative we have, Myers said. But because the trail is next to these drying fields, there is a potential for public contact. The meander line is about 600 feet beyond a dike that was installed to protect power lines when the lake water is high. y right-of-wa- bio-solid- Standard Examiner correspondent KAYSVILLE The district has agreed to give the Mayor Jay Ritchie explained to the overflow audience, It's the responsibility of the person requesting the reone to go to the tax records and bring those names to the city. The city mails the notification, and the public is to receive it 10 days prior to the meeting. Ritchie explained that the party proposing the rezone, Blake Ilazen and Associates, had failed to list properties of at least two landowners within the specified area, and therefore the public hearing could not take place. That announcement was met with some resistance as residents in attendance expressed objections to having to meet at a later date. He didnt meet the requirements, so just tell him he cant have the rezone, grumbled one citizen. Ritchie assured the audience that proper notification would take place, adding, He (Hazcn) plans to go to 500 feet just to make sure everyone is contact- v ' $? t am aM vr fJ'iWI ,jn Me,. 25.13 Grunt Aw., Ogdi n, t2 1 33KO Comr HnrUtri Htr )im Arr It flcnme IT |
