Show Shall Lark Have County- Lights? For the past nine months there has been quite a controversy concerning the county lighting of the. little camp of Lark. It is the only town in the whole of , Salt Lake county ; that has not been equipped with electric street lights. The only reason that lights have not ; been installed, in-stalled, it has been said, was because the Bingham Mines Co. owned the land and an objection would be raised by said company. com-pany. ' We are indebted, however, how-ever, to Manager Imer Pett of the Bingham Mines Co. for a copy of a letter which he mailed to the Salt Lake County Commissioners Com-missioners on December 14th of last year, in which the Commissioners Commis-sioners were granted full per- mission to install lights on the above company's land. , y . Office bf 'Bingham Mines Co. Salt Lake City, Utah. t December 14, 1922. To the Honorable Board of County Commissioners : of Salt Lake County, I Salt Lake City, Utah: i Gentlemen: Our attention has recently been called to the need , of adequate lighting for! ithe main highway to and within the town of Lark. There is considerable traffic over this road, which is quite narrow, and proper lighting is a .' "safety first" measure which we would heartily recommend and endorse. . You may therefore consider this letter as written permission to install any necessary lights on Bingham Mines Company property. I ' y ":. Respectfully, IMER PETT, -x - Gneral Manager |
