The youths, taken into custody by Officer Cody Cullimore, were referred to juvenile court. John Ekins, youth city mayor for Pleasant Grove, reported that his wallet was taken from his car while it was parked at Pleasant Grove High School. The wallet contained $5. Officer Bert Bean said that no arrests have been made nor has the wallet been recovered. When a three-year-ol- d decides to drive it can mean catastrophe and that is about what happened in Pleasant Grove last week. The little girl got into a car owned by Kathleen K. Glad, 42f S.

Pleasant Grove is larger acre-wis-e than American Fork, the mayor pointed out. Mayor Holdaway also suggested that the city budget some money for cultural type organizations within the city. He said he felt some of the cultural groups need some backing. He told the council that when the Pageant of the Arts was beginning in American Fork the city provided some financial assistance til the pageant was able to support itself. He noted that many areas in the city, such as recreation, were doing so well and that he felt that now some emphasis could be put on the arts and humanities as well. The council will hold a public input and workshop on the budget for the new year on May 31 beginning at 6 p.m. On June 7 will be the budget hearing beginning at 6:30 p.m. and a final budget will be adopted that night. A hearing on the possible use of revenue sharing funds will be held May 17 at 7:15 p.m. A final public hearing on the use of revenue sharing funds will be held May 31 at 7 p.m. The public is encouraged to attend all of these public hearings. Kurt James received permission from the city council to sell ice cream throughout the city during the summer months. The ice cream carts will be in the city every day except Sunday from about 9:30 a.m. til about 7:30 p.m. He said that the bikes will go as slow as possible, five miles per hour, when the tune is playing. They will try to stay as close to the side of the road as possible to provide the best safety they can for little children. Mayor Holdaway suggested that an ordinance be drafted that would allow performers to taverns who are between the ages of 18 and 21 as long as they were confined to the performance area and not to other parts of the bar. Those under the age 18 would not be allowed to perform in a tavern. The council adopted an ordinance allowing the change in the local option sales tax providing for a total of 78 of one percent to be collected for the local government. The council also signed a letter accepting the new distribution formula of sales taxes. Under the new plan the city should receive about $88,000 in additional revenues from sales tax than before. Each year this will increase as the state gradually changes over from a point of sale method of distribution to 50 percent point of sale and 50 percent population. Sliding (Continued from page 1 ) Water has washed away the embankments in portions of upper Blackhawk with moss growing on the sidewalk where the water runs a steady stream after it leaves the clay sidehffl. The road has been Patched in the area because of the development of the springs from the overly wet ground but is continually sinking. Between two homes in the area the owners have had to dig out wound the houses and put in a drain and pipe at the front of the house so that the water can be diverted off into the gutter. Otherwise the basements begin to fill up. Jeppson said that where there is a good rock base the soil probably will not move but in the clay type soils the slippage takes place more easily. The slick face of the clay at the recent slide above Grovecreek shows how easily the soil can move over such material. 0 Christiansen-- IO it i r vMjiii.nuea irom page l) sideration at the May 12 meeting, when the CUWCD directors may take action to affirm an earlier resolution to build the pipeline. That resolution had been made depending on Gov. Matheson's approval approval which has been withheld while the governor sought to bring the differing sides of the ssue together. But Matheson has indicated that once the seven new members are seated, he will with-draw from the controversy and let the board make the decision. The district staff, anxious to go ahead with construction of the Pipeline, which they say has been delayed too long already, may be anxious to reaffirm that resolution with the new board, so construction n the project can being right away. And since the new board will only J'ave four new members out of 19 members, it's likely that a vote would go the same as it did last year when approval for the J-- 4 was voiced unanimously - except of course for Christiansen's vote. If he does make that vote, he says 11 won't be the last time. few 1 expect I will be voting no quite a times," he said. However, this one may be academic, with a large majority 'avoring construction of the P'Pe'ine. And that sets up nristiansen's dilemma. In a special session in April, the Timpanogos Agency authorized Christiansen to file a lawsuit to force the district to not build the J-- 4 pipline. That authorization was based on conditions revolving around the new board, and Tuesday Christiansen said he would be looking for further clarification of those conditions when the Tim-panogos Agency met last night, May 4. The suit will claim that the J-- 4 plan does not comply with county zoning requirements, and that no variance to those requirements has ever been sought by the district. The district says that since the project is under the direction of the Bureau of Reclamation, it is not subject to local ordinances. The suilt may also question the constitutionality of the board's members, 12 of whom were ap-pointed under a system that many feel did not provide proper representation for a body that is funded by a property tax mill levy. The new law was designed to eliminate this, but the majority of board members were still appointed under the system many contend is flawed. Christiansen said he wants to be sure of his ground before going ahead with the suit which could tie construction of the J-- 4 up in the courts for years. "I want to make sure I have the full support of the board before I file the suit," Christiansen said. "I don't want to fall back on a month-ol- d decision." But if Christiansen were told to file the suit at the Timpanogos Agency meeting, he could well go into today's orientation meeting im-mediately after taking legal action against the group he will soon join. It's a sticky position. "I haven't slept well quite a few nights since I received the ap-pointment," Christiansen said. But he said he expected to develop a good working relationship with other board members despite the difficulties of his current position. "I'm looking forward to a very positive relationship," he said, in-dicating that all the board members are working to build a water project to serve the people. "I hope we're not going to be too much at odds," he said. "I'm hopeful they will understand the position of the people I represent." Christiansen said he thinks his experience will be an asset to the board. "I think there's no question about it, with 10 years of government service," he said. "But I've still got a lot to learn. I'm not going to be perfect." |
