The public safety department is developing a way to send abduction details to truckers at all ports of entry. Organizers of the alert plan are collecting information to see if a reverse 911 system could be used to quickly contact people by phone about child abductions. Rachael Alert is known nationally as the Amber Plan. When Rachel Alert was initiated last April, Utah became the ninth state in the nation with an emergency system. Utahs plan received nationwide attention June 5 when the Salt Lake Gty Police Department initiated the first Rachael Alert after Elizabeth Smart was kidnapped. Since then, six more states have adopted emergency alert plans and 1 0 children have been safely recovered. County commissioners conduct (Continued from page 1A) I wonder now, after 35 years, if we should make changes. I just dont know. Smith originally proposed that the county take two translators from metro stations and give one to him and one to Anderson or take two for other kinds of stations so there is more variety of music or talk radio in the area. In the case ofour stations, we have shadows where people can't pick up our signals and they don't," explained Smith. Smith introduced the results of a poll conducted on the Sun Advocates web site the week of July 23. Visitors to the site were able to vote on four different scenarios concerning the situation. With 198 votes cast, 42 percent of the respondents favored leaving the translators alone, 35 percent wanted to reconsider all and make changes with public input, 13 percent sug- gested unplugging KISN and giving the frequency to another n for more variety and 10 percent voted to unplug KISN and give the license to a local station. Some of the commissioners had seen the poll. But the officials pointed out that it wasnt a scientific sampling, but amply a web polL One lawmaker was upset by the advertising Smiths station had been putting out during sta-tio- the week before the meeting about the situation. Sometimes people listen to stations for more than just the music or format, stated Commissioner Tbm Matthews. They rack translator hearing: sometimes listen for the DJs or other things. Personally, I think your ads ths past week were misleading. Well they may have been misleading to you, responded Smith. But they were not meant to be. But if you arent willing to let the local stations have the transmitters then lets get some variety. We could use a more lib- eral talk station or music for some of the young people around here. They are starving for their kind of music. The Carbon commissioners wanted to know if a change in the county translators to stations in the area would add to local listenership. There are blank spots in the county for both types of transmissions, explained Brady. In some areas the counties Star Point translators cant be picked up, in other areas it is the local transmitters. Giving the local stations access to the translators would not really increase coverage in Carbon as much as it would give them more reach into Emery and Grand Counties. A disagreement ensued between Brady and Smith about what the change would accomplish. Smith maintained that it would allow the local stations to broadcast to the Helper area. However, Brady pointed out that the Star Point translators do not reach Helper. The commissioners then opened up the matter for public comment Pam Juliano indicated that she thought things should not be changed. I dont want to see FM 100 (now KSFI) taken offthe air, because I really enjoy their Christmas music during the holidays, she stated. I also have to question the ads that KUSA ran about this meeting. I dont like being scared into change. Resident Richard Dart, a member of the family recognized as one of the pioneers of FM transmission in the area, addressed die commissioners during the meeting as welL The original intent of the FCC in allowing these translators was wide area coverage where there was none, Dart simmer savings r FACTO RYIO UTliETi 01 Dodge Neon 01 FordFocus 4 Door; 2 to Choose 99 Ford Ranger 4x4, Supercab, XU 7,448 9,988 11,448 00 Lincoln LS tors did not. Another local citizen, Jim Brooks, also made some comments during the hearing. I came here from California in 1994, pointed out Brooks. I think we need to keep business here in Carbon County. If a change like this would keep local businesses more competitive, then I think we should do it : With ntf further comments from the public, Krompe brought the meeting back into the commissions hands. I have had many calls about KISN, explained commissioner Mike Milovich. I personally dont think I should make a decision about what people listen to. Since it appears this change will not make a big difference about what can be picked up by receivers in the county, Im not sure a change is in order. If we are to makeachange we need some type ofpoUofdtizens to make the decision; something scientific. Smith offered to help sponsor a poll if the process was the direction the commission decided the county would go. But the issue of format change moved into another area at that point during the last commission meeting. These stations are bought and sold a lot, cautioned Brady. We could change the stations that are on to get different formats and three months later the station we change to could be sold and the format could revert back to what we are trying to change. The county commissioners decided that a poll would be a good idea, but money to conduct a survey would have to be budgeted. The lawmakers subsequently decided to study the idea. Brady also pointed out to die commission that there would be a cost for rechanneling the transmitters if and when it was done. 19,999 22,897 02 Chiysta 300Moyi 85KMks, stated. That was the original intent. It was grown from the idea that areas that had no service should have some. They made these frequencies available for the rebroadcast of signals where no local stations existed. But they also wanted to protect local stations in areas where service was also available. So local stations had requirements that transla- Coordination, Self-Confiden- ce, Timing, anil! Self-Discipli- are the results of quality instruction.
