LOUISE BROWN Standard-Examine- r correspondent CLINTON - Armed with a new ordinance that more thoroughly identifies parking violations, Clinton Police Chief J Bill Chilson hopes to be able to take care of chronic parking If if s Sunday -or virtually any other day, for that matter it must mean traffic congestion on Interstate 1 5. That issue continues to be a major concern for many Davis County residents, some of whom are pictured waiting in traffic on the highway in Clearfield (above) and in Bountiful (at left). violators. TRAFFIC TRAVAILS: We have people out there that play the ordinance game and park where they know theyre not supposed to, Chilson told the city council Tuesday. Chilson assured the council that while the new ordinance gives reasonable leeway, it contains enough updated to enable law specifics enforcement officers to take care of local parking problems. Sgt. Adam Fiske, whom Chilson credited for researching and updating the ordinance, added, This would give us a tool we can use to demonstrate this ordinance is in effect, and we will not tolerate repeat violators. The old ordinance didnt allow us to do what we needed to do, Chilson explained, citing 4 - File , - photos Two contracts awarded for Syracuse street project Construction on special The good news is weve been able improvement district should begin in the spring examples of complaints of violators parking in front of By JANA DEARDEN mailboxes, and the difficulty in not being able to take care of those situations. This new ordinance allows issuance of a citation for that, he stated. Another major change from the current ordinance regards parking during winter snow removal months. The previous ordinance allowed a maximum of one hour of parking on the street from midnight to 7 a.m. between Oct 15 and April 1. While the new ordinance proposed prohibiting parking on city streets through those same hours, from Nov. 15 through March 15, the council balked at the wording "and any other time when 3 inches of snow has accumulated on the street We dont usually plow at 3 inches around here, Mayor DeMar Mitchell said. If you want it to be 6 inches, 6 is fine, Chilson responded.

The city saved $50,000 by awarding the entire project to one contractor. The first construction schedule was awarded a month ago for $589,710. That section will include 3000 West and 700 South. The engineers estimate for the entire special improvement district project was $4 million. Currently cost estimates put the project at $3 million. CONSTRUCTION REPORT Mitchells suggestion, the council voted to change the wording to read that instead of the 3 inches of snow, parking on city streets was prohibited whenever snow removal is required. The wording also included intent to give verbal warning to violators. The council passed the ordinance, then turned next to the business of establishing penalty fees for parking citations. Basically, the fine schedule states that the fee for a parking violation is $7 if paid within 14 days. The fee increases to $17 if paid after the 14 days have elapsed, and increases again to $50 if, after 30 days, it is sent to a collections agency. The council agreed on the fee and passed it schedule, unanimously. .

(888) INFO Gosed untd summer Great American Smokeout is bade On Thursday, the American Cancer Society's 22nd annual Great American Smokeout will help millions of smokers kick the habit, and help youth understand the importance of never starting to smoke. The Great American Smokeout promotion is the American Cancer societys annual nationally recognized day when we ask smokers to put down their cigarettes, cigars, spit tobacco, or any tobacco product because they all have the potential to cause cancer. Because we know that approximately 32 million smokers (out of 47 million current smokers) want to quit smoking completely, we will continue to offer support and education to the public. The promise of an addiction free life has encouraged many smokers to join in and prove to themselves that they can live a day without cigarettes and that they can therefore live the rest of their lives without them. The Great American smokeout is not just about adult smokers and cessation. As the times change and our understanding of the addictive cycle of nicotine increases, were working to prevent children from ever becoming smokers. More that 80 of current adult smokers started before they were 18 years old. Thats why the Great American Smokeout is also focusing on promotions that will communicate to our children the social disadvantages of smoking, and provide them with the tools to recognize and avoid negative social influences. Everyone can participate in the Great American Smokeout. It's really quite simple. Smokeout events can be held in malls, schools, businesses, restaurants, military bases, or hospitals. If youre a smoker, decide that on Thursday you will put your cigarettes down for good. Quitting wont be easy, but by preparation, determination, and some assistance, it can be done. If youre not a smoker but want to get involved in promoting the Great American Smokeout, theres a place for you, too, during Smokeout. To find out about Great American Smokeout events in your area, call the your local American Cancer Society office or call (801) 483-15- 00. v V: ;:n y.'il V Births Lakevtew Hospital Moikkvo - Mark and Jody, Bountiful, girl, Oct. 27.
