The rest of the streets that need paving have been set in priorities and new overlay will be placed on as many of them as funds are available, beginning with the ones in the worst condition. In the City Council meeting Nov. 15, the city passed a resolution to borrow $65,000 on tax anticipation notes. Syme said the money was needed to meet obligations on the new Regional Park. Under the grant from the Bureau of Outdoor Recreation, he explained, the city has to make partial payments to the contractors, then send the cancelled checks in to the BOR before the agency will pay the city its share. Syme said this process takes upwards of two months and the $81,000 paid out wiped us out by the city in of cash." With more payments to contractors to be made in about two ' weeks, the city had to borrow some front end money, he said. Through bidding, the city was able to obtain the funds at a low interest rate, Syme said, until the BOR funds from the park are received. The council asked Syme to write a letter to the Duchesne County School District concerning assistance in paying for crosswalk guards near the schools. In addition, the city has hired a new Treasurer-ComptrolleRoger Hunter, a accountant now living in Sandy. Hunter will take over the combined positions of city treasurer and accounting clerk. Earlene Smart, former city treasurer, has moved into the Recorder position vacated when Barbara Ritter moved away from Roosevelt and the woman currently in the accounting clerk position will be let go, Syme said. Hie council has also appointed Alva Snow to be UBIC president for 1978. Vaughn Ryan, originally appointed to the post, had notified the council that he would be unable to take the position.
