MANY HOURS Lindon's Bicentennial Mosaic is the result of many, many ideas, hands and hours. It commemorates our nation's 200th birthday, this year. Lots of Work . . . Mosaic Made at Lindon A bicentennial grant was awarded the Alpine School District last year for those schools that wanted to participate in the creation of a mosaic commorating our nation's 200th birthday. Lindon Elementary accepted the challenge. from the submitted ideas. Grades 3-- 6 rolled the clay and glazed the tile for the project. These were fired in the school kiln. Approximately 200 students, Grades 6 par-ticipated in cutting and cementing the tile in place. The finished mosaic is 4 ft. by 8 ft. and is bolted to the It truly is a work of art created and constructed by students of our school as a memorial to our great nation. This project makes all of us at school very proud. We feel that our country is and will be in good hands. We exhort our patrons to come to see and study and enjoy the mosaic. Under the direction of Don Bell the entire student body and faculty of the school were involved. A search for ideas resulted in 250 plus drawings from all grades, 1st through 6th. A composite was created wall across from the office. The major subjects depicted are the Catholic Fathers, the Liberty Bell with the Bald Eagle above it and the early American Flag with a colonial drummer in front of it. DR. CLAIR R.

People disabled since childhood may be eligible for supplementl security income (SSI) payments when they reach 18 regardless of their families' income. The eligibility of children under 18 can be affected by their parent's income and resources, but severely disabled people who remain unmarried are considered in dependent of their families starting at 18, or at 21 if they're in school. At this point they may be eligible for SSI payments if they have little or no income of their own. People can get information about applying for SSI payments by calling or writing any social security of-fice. LETTER TO ED Since Mayor Haynie ap-parently chose to attact me personally rather than give citizens an account of what hapened to approxamitly three acres of Anderson Park I wish to state a few facts about the "subdivision?" road. After spending con-siderable money (The city was reluctant to give me the amount) PG City completed plans for an urban develop-ment road on first south to provide access to a large development above the Mur-doc- k Canal on first North and possibly install a 12 inch sewer main from the sub-division to connect with the large sewer main on second south near eight east. This city planed raod has been placed on the PG Zoning map. These plans were also presented to and approved by the urban development group in Provo. After returing from Spokane, Wash, where we spent several weeks helping to care for a grandaughter aflicted with terminal Leukemia I found that city crews and equipment had pushed old fruit trees, a large walnut tree and about 250 feet of mesh fencing which divided the park property from my property onto an existing pile of wood on my property below the North Union canal. Above the canal they had pushed brush, trees, etc. from the edge of the park property and the land right-of-wa- y some 200 feet onto my property disrupting an irrigation ditch and destroying a colvert under the land road. Since that time I have not used my four shares of Battle Creek water, it has been rented out to pay assessments. Two property identifing corner fence posts were also disrupted. This work was apparently done in preparation for the road and before we recieved any notification that a road was being planned through our property. Permission to tresspass was never requested. At a meeting called by a city councilman Aut 30, 1974 conserning the development of this city planned road one councilman inferred that fun-ds were available to help this road. This is as I recalled it and has been varified by another person who was in attandance at this meeting. Objections to the road were expressed by three citizens none of whom had property directly involved. Two property owners east of us had some objections to the exact location of the road. A city councilman was asked by one of the objectors if the available funds might be lost to the city. As I recall his an-swer was, "I don't know". It was at this meeting that I offered to donate 1.173 acres including two small pieces located between the road and the park. About 90 of the road is located on my property but I have fron-tage on only one side of the 889 foot road. About two years later after a strong protest by me the city did return and install temporarty fence to identify line and graded a new ditcy, the culvert was never replaced. They helped burn the two piles of wood they had pushed onto my proper-ty. I did appreciate their help in the property line and burning the wood. I personally had to dig the 250 feet of fencing from the ashes and dirt and haul it to the dump. I maintain that this urban development road instigated, planned and started along my fence line by the city is not a subdivision road and the soul responcibility of the property owner. Neither is the 880 feet of 12 inch sewer main along the original road plan (except for the difference in cost of 8 inch and 12 inch pipe) my soul responsability as the Mayor indicated to me in much the same tone as his at-tact on me. It was not until after this conversation that I recalled my offer to donate the 1.173 acres to the city for the road and Park. Now, if the Mayor has completed his attack on me; I have offered my rebuttle; Maybe we can get back to the original issue I was concerned about. Why was the 7.28 acre "PI. Grove City Anderson Park" as is was desiginated in the contract, reduced to about 4 acres. Was the seller and public notified before the reduction was made? Were the deals properly and legally consumated? If I have offended anyone in this attempt to defend myself I offer my sincere public apology to them. Daryl Huish |
