Crandalls has been trying to get a permit for over a year for a new dealership to be built on Rasmussen Road. They own 50 acres of ground, but are only trying to develop 3.8 acres. Much of their ground is down into a creek bed and up a steep slope. They have no plans at this time to develop this ground. Their plans show a 13,000 sq. ft. showroom and service area and a ft parking area. Meetings have been held for pre- 51,500 sq. application, neighborhood compatibility and with the com- -' missioners. The planning staff said they were compatible in April 1992 and at the Dec. 8 meeting, the staff recommended that the applicant does ' comply with the codes and zoning regulations and have worked closely with them to determine just what will be expected of them at their new development The meeting was opened to the public with Ruth Wagner, the only one who objected to the project, giving a very lengthy presentation. Jim Bums, a Coalville resident and former mayor, said Crandall's business has always been a stable business and a source of high revenue for Coalville and will be for the county. Leon Simister said the county has made many demands on Crandalls application, and has been given, what he considered to be unreasonable "hoops to jump ; . . through. As far as car impact, he said it will not be nearly as much as the skiers bring to the roads in the county and everyone considers their being here as a definite attraction. Simister went on to say that the area Crandalls owns is not part of Park City landscaping and the service department will be a good asset to the area. Dan Scoffield said that Crandalls have lived up to all the county requests and will certainly improve that side of Rasmussen Road. Scoffield said the county was causing an undue hardship and injustice for Crandalls, a local established business, as well as to the community. Bob Bums, an owner of property adjoining Crandalls, said tire car dealership fits in well with die area and the property that has already been developed and he supported the project Duncan Silver, a resident of Summit Park, said Crandalls would be an asset to the area and he was looking forward to the development and the convenience. He did not agree with the county that Crandalls or anyone else, should have to give part of their property for open space. He felt this was one of our rights in a democracy being taken away. Steven Wools tenhulme, a businessman in Summit County, said Crandalls have a responsible business already in Summit County and are surely as asset and brings money to the county. He said even though some people have been living here for a few years, they are move-in- s and want to close the doors to local progress by local people.

It must be seen to attract customers. The commissioners held a long discussion on what the remainder of the owners ground would be used for. The audience talked among themselves wishing they would concentrate on the applicants 3.8 acres as any other development would have to be applied for when ees. Crandall said, "They are making so many unreasonable demands and conditions, they will put me out of business." As the meeting continued, Steve Woolstenhulme was given a permit for a sales trailer, which is already on the site at Bridge Hollow in Wanship.

Bob Bums, property owner in Browns, was in favor of the golf course if it was open to the general public which they said it would be. Vemile Prince, mayor of Kamas, said this type of development is needed. Gordon Warner, who owns 440 acres around the proposed course, said he enjoys the wildlife and grazing animals and didn't think the course would deter in any way, but would be for the best Nancy Roberts and Norocn Kih-lwoe against disturbing the wildlife and the close proximity to the road as well as more traffic the e course would bring to a er two-lan- road. Commissioner Weiss said the project was premature in coming before the planning commission and felt the staff should have more details and statistics presented before bringing it before the planning board. The permit was denied at this time. Commissioners Robert Crandall and Reed Schuman have retired from the board and their places will be filled by appointment by the county commissioners in the near future. pages pages U 9 81 Christmas Lighting Contest Winners 9 9 8) 8) S The winner? of the first week of the Christmas Lighting Contest 8) ? 9 for Kamas City are Ted Prescott, first place, and Dick Wilde, second 8) 9 place.

Commissioner Kenny made the motion that they accept the planning staffs recommendation since they met the codes and zoning with the following conditions: in the burning of waste oil, they must meet the strictest standards so as not to impact the air quality; specific quality and quantity of landscaping; acknowledge no plans for future expansion; that the sloped ground be used for agriculture only; the lightning; be turned off except the ores needed for security evaluated by the Sheriffs Department. Commissioner Schuman seconded the motion. After some discussion, some changes were made, mainly on the burning of waste oil which Crandalls uses for healing purposes. The motion passed with five yes and one abstaining. Commissioner Weiss abstained because he thought they should hold more meetings in the Park City area. Later, Junior Crandall, who is the applicant, said he has been go- -' ing through this for over a year, trying to get a permit to build on his property. He has already spent hundreds of dollars on the site getting it ready for construction. Crandall said he does not understand the county's willingness to help new developments which they are trying to bring into the county in comparison with a local already established business that is trying to expand and will hire more employ- A Section 8 B Section 4 Forty-Seve- n Moser Elected To Utah Association of Counties a him- Well Child Clinic The Well Child Clinic for the South Summit District will be held on Dec. 14.
