Cify Council Met Tuesday for Regular Session, Conduct Business The regular meeting of the Pleasant Grove City Council was held Tuesday evening, July 17. Present were Cornell Hay-ni- e, Mayor Pro Tern and Coun-cilme- n John Huntsman and Neil Fugal. Councilmen West and Vicchrilli were excused be-cause of work. The matter of payments for the lights at the rodeo grounds was discussed and after recom-mendation from the Strawberry Days Association it was deci-decide- d that the city and the SDA will jointly pay $450 to-wards the bill on the lights. Any amount beyond this figure will be paid by the riding clubs using these facilities. It is to be expected that the riding clubs will provide maintenance and upkeep on the facilities in re-turn for the $450 payment. The recorder was asked to have this decision forwarded to the recreation director who in turn will get the information to the various riding clubs. Councilman Huntsman re-ported on the meeting held last Saturday relative to the city program for senior citizens. He stated that the present pro-gram is being reviewed and evaluated and recommenda-tions will be forthcoming to improve the program within the city. It was reported that part of the wall at the relic hall needs to be repaired. Because of the water problem at the building, part of the wall has deterior-ated and is need of repair. The council felt that the extent of the repairs should be determin-ed and the cost of the repairs be obtained. A. B. Gibson and Jay F. Har-me- r, representing the Pleasant Grove City Business Develop-ment Corporation met with the council to discuss the selling of property in the present in- - dustrial park. It was reported that the business development corporation had been contacted by several parties interested in locating in the park. The coun-cil felt that the property in the park should be sold to those types of businesses which lend itself to the present trend of devleopment in the indust-rial area of the city. Mr. Gib-son reported that the business development group was now ready to make final payment on additional industrial proper ty. Part of the money to pur-chase this property is coming from a loan from the bank and the city was asked if they would sign a loan guaranty to secure the note that the busi-ness development corporation will sign. The council decided that they would approve sign-ing the loan guaranty. Harold Woolston and George Fowers met with the council to discuss the possibility of ha-ving curb & gutter installed at their homes on 350 East Street. They reported that the neigh-bors in the area had approved making these improvements and would participate in the work of installing curb and putter. These gentlemen asked permission to go ahead with, the project and for the city engineer to survey the road so that the improvements can be constructed correctly. The council authorized this work to be done by these residents under the supervision of the city. Sidney Lester, local resident, met with the council to request that street signs be obtained for the roads at the new mobile home park. He stated that be-fore mail delivery can be ef-fected in this area that street signs need to be installed. Mr. Lester also requested that speed limit signs be posted on the Geneva Road near the mo-bile home park to help in re-minding the motorists of the speed limit in that area.

Senior Citizens Unit Meets, Has Committee, Will Meet Again S. I. Lester conducted a re-cent meeting at the Pleasant Grove City Hall for the purpose of organizing a Senior Citizens Unit in the Pleasant Grove area Guy Brown, Springville, who is chairman of the Utah Coun-ty Council on Aging and H. Al-va- h Fitzgerald, director of the same organization, were pres-ent. To form a Senior Citizens un-it in Pleasant Grove, it would be necessary to have an elec-tion of officers, a suitable buil-ding to meet in and finances to back the organization. A local organization under dynamic leadership can devel-op our own group, Nutritious meals on wheels can be available for 75c and has been successful in other areas. Hot lunch and a fellow-sho- p dinner once a month can be planned. A local group can create their own program, such as a band, to entertain. A senior citizen band in Helper has been very successful, and has been in de-mand for entertainment for many community programs. Many interesting activities can be enjoyed within a local group. Classes can be taught in ceramics and in painting. Senior Citizens can also be organized to do volunteer work in the community and can of-fer their services in many ar-eas. It was suggested that the Sportsman-Lion- s building on 6th East and Center be used as a possible meeting place if a suitable schedule could be worked out. Mr. Lester suggested that a committee be appointed to go ahead on the local organization possibility. Orval Carter put this in the form of a motion, and it was seconded by Mrs. Ruth Hassenfritz. A committee was named to include Orval Carter, Alice Simper, Vilace Radmall, George Smith, Sid Lester, John Hunts-man, Arnold Henrickson and Mrs. Lee Southam. They will investigate the possibility of an organization, and report at a meeting which has been call-ed for Friday, July 20 at 3 p. m. at the Sportsmans-Lion- s building. All senior citizens are invited to attend. Lindon Cify Council Met in Regular Session Last Wednesday, Discuss Various Items of Business The Lindon City Council met for their regular monthly meet-ing Wednesday, July 11, 1973 at 7:30 p.m. Mayor Stanley H. Walker conducted the meeting, and all councilmen were pres-ent with the exception of Wayne Peay. Police officer Carl Wilkin-son gave the police report for June, (see an article elsewhere in the paper). Orval Davis discussed pre-liminary plans for the proposed Alpine School District complex to be located on Locust Ave. West Hammond was present at the meeting to ask permis-sion to have storage warehous-es on the other two acres of the Mitchell Trailer Park. He was referred to the Planning Commission for approval. Permission was given to Mt. Bell to bury a telephone cable along 175 East - north off 400 North. Mayor Walker, Councilman LeRoy Fryer and Councilman Wendyl Jarvis had met with the Orem City Council and Metropolitan Water District of Orem. After the meeting they decided to offer Orem the use of 6.7 second feet of water for temporary use for the sum of $5,000 per year. Mayor Walker read a letter to the council that he had writ-ten to Governor Calvin Ramp- - ton asking the governor to re-evaluate Lindon's priority for a sewer system. The council agreed that Lin-don City would buy an ad in the Daily Herald Progress ed-ition to be published in August. Councilman Darrell Framp-to- n proposed that the water meters be read every two months during the summer watering season. No action was taken on this proposal, according to the minutes. Councilman Dale Gillman re-ported that another hole had been deliberately chopped in the Dry Canyon Water line. It was suggested that all Lindon citizens cooperate in policing the line when in the area, and report any tampering, vandal-ism or destruction. This should be reported councilman Wen-dyl Jarvis. Work on the city dog pound was reported by Councilman Frampton. Councilman Frampton was asked to follow up on LEPA's request for Lindon's assess-ment for services to the city. Mayor Walker asked that the citizens of Lindon be espec-ially mindful of the extreme fire potential in the city. No open burning without a permit and proper precautions. Those people maliciously starting a fire will be charged with a fire call. Mayor Walker said the City of Lindon is having more fires than the City of Pleasant Grove and the city council suggests that because of the charge for a fire call of $300 that care be exercised. This $300 is the charge for either a nuisance or a real fire. A resolution was passed stat-ing that any extension of the Lindon City water system re-quired by a builder, developer or individual shall be made ac-cording to Lindon City speci-fications at the expense of such builder, developer or individual The motion was made by Wen-dyl Jarvis and seconded by Le- Roy Fryer. It passed unani-mously. ?l j j ! b """" S " jw; ., v " ... o ...... ,. ..
