Show ednesday, June 11, 1986 - Page 3 Warnick, Beck in county race , : ) Three Republican races in Utah County were settled June 7 when delegates attending the Republican Party Convention gave the can-didates an overwhelming majority of votes. The election assured north Utah County of a voice on the commission with Robert W. Warnick and Malcolm H. Beck, both of American Fork, winning the right to have their names on the primary ballot in August for the four-yea- r commission post. In the race for two-yea- r County Commissioner, Brent C. Morris was declared the winner after receiving 82 percent of the delegate vote over the needed 70 percent. Morris, an administrative assistant to Commissioner Gary Anderson, received 746 votes to incumbent J. Oneil Miner's 160 votes. In .the four-yea- r county com-mission race, Warnick, incumbent commissioner appointed in January to finish the term of Gerald Wilson, received 454 votes, while Beck received 312. Keith A. Haslam, Provo City accountant, who received 142 voles, was eliminated from the race. In the race for Utah County at-torney, candidates on the ballot will be incumbent Wayne B. Watson and ' Steven R. Killpack. Gregory M. Warner was eliminated. Watson received 222 votes, Killpack, 483 and Warner, 195. Noall T. Wootton, incumbent Utah County Attorney chose not to run again. In the Utah County Sheriff race, incumbent David R. Bateman will face his deputy Scott W. Carter. Floyd L. Farley, a former Utah Highway Patrolman, was eliminated. Bateman received 416 votes, Carter 412 and Farley, 80. In the race for Utah County Auditor, incumbent Elwood L. Sundberg will race John II. Adams for the post. In a surprisingly close race, Sundberg received 479 votes and Adams, 429. In the race for constable in Precinct One, Raeldon" Palmer and Jim Phelps will have their names on the ballot. Palmer received 66 votes and Phelps 57. Lynn E. Clingo, the third candidate, received four voles. DeLance Squire, former Orem mayor, nominating Beck for the commission pos'., said he has been "associated with him in many community assignments" during the time he was mayor of American Fork and "never attended one (meeting) where Malcolm wasn't present." . "He has always had the courage to take a stand on issues and to vote as he thought was right." The motion was seconded by Harley Gillman. In his acceptance, Beck said he has a definite philosophy that "elected officials should .serve the Malcolm Beck talks to Republican party delegates at Un,ah County Convention Saturday. public and not the public the elected officials." He said during his 13 years as mayor, he never called an executive session and during his 18 years in government, he never raised his own salary. There was a salary increase approved in 1984, "but I knew I wasn't going to run again." He said he believes in an "open policy. I believe it's your right to know what we public officials are talking about." Paul Rogers, nominating War-nick, said Warnick is "trained for this position" having the background to prepare for that service. He has served as county com-missioner, on the city council, in the state legislature as well as a lob-bies- t.

He said he also feels the impact on the wildlife needs to be studied further as he knows the wildlife people have concerns about the project. "Also I feel Estes is being very optimistic on the nature of the weather on the ridge. I'm not sure they can attract people once they know what the weather is like. "Estes won't share their marketing study information with me and I haven't anything to go on, but only a gut feeling about their marketing of the area." "The bottom line is, I felt the benefits to Utah County were questionable (at this time)." Warnick says he's sure that down the road the ridge will be developed but he isn't sure if this is the time for it. He added he doesn't think the county should become involved in "city business" such as being responsible for city services. "This makes us a quasi-cit- y council," he said, adding he would feel better about the development if a municipality such as Lehi would annex it. "I would be more willing to sup-port it if it was annexed into a municipality," he said. He said he doesn't know how all the cities feel about it, but he has talked with some of the mayors and four of the five have indicated they have the same concerns he has. Regarding the "conditional zoning," Warnick says historically conditional zoning has not been legal in Utah although it is in some of the other states. "It has never been authorized as an acceptable way in Utah," he said. Fugal dug-o-ut house on historical register The Andreas ' Fugal Dug-ou- t House has been recognized as an historical and archeteclurally unique building. The National Register of Historic Places, Washington, D.C., has recently informed Roger Roper, Utah State Historical Society nomination chairman, that last fall's nomination was accepted. The underground home, located at 630 N. 400 East in Pleasant Grove, was built as a temporary shelter in 1869 by Christian Christensen Fugal and his son Andreas. Submerged housing was a common mode of fast, inexpensive shelter for many pioneer families. However, these first shelters were soon abandoned and left to decay as materials and means became available to provide larger wood or stone houses. The Fugals, being f rugal, used the rock-line- dirt-floo- r dug-o- as the foundation and basement of their soft-roc- k home. If they had not built over the original single room, it undoubtedly would have gone the way of all other early subterranian Utah houses. Fortunately it was preserved and is the only known residential dug-o- in Utah that is still intact and being used. The preservation of this unique 117-ye- old structure is partly accounted for by continuous family ownership. It is presently owned by Neil Y. Fugal. He purchased it from his cousin Earnest Clayton in 1980. The home is a rallying point for the periodic Fugal clan summer reunions where they can review their acquaintances and their heritage. Other ancestral places flank the "dug-out- " such as the Chris Fugal Blacksmith Shop and home on the north, and Niels and Jens Fugal homes on the south. The Historic Preservation Committee of Pleasant Grove presently is working toward the nomination of some of the old lime soft-roc- k structures that represent a building material used solely in our area. We may soon add other homes to our list of eight that are now on '.' historical registers. riblic hearing set son arid Si :, , ,. ,, .. m ,., next Tuesday" ' have ire ie,nortt;: Grove City Council will iold.te'1'0 hearing on Tuesday, till ose c receive input on a request aboutvo, "aw Waste Disposal to ' arbage rates by 30 cents per residence. jr to the council, Laidlaw Vnlie increase was necessary 1 Wf the tipping fee being the landfill.

Mayor David Holdaway suggested that the amount assessed be paid. In addition, David Fullmer, who is the new band director for Pleasant Grove High School, had asked the city council for $200 to help with the summer band expenses as it represents the city in various parades. The money will assist with special training the band needs for these activities. The city council-approve- d both of these expenditures. City Engineer Lee Wimmer reported that a considerable amount of damage had been done on 1100 North from 500 East to the Murdock Canal. He estimated the damage at $28,000 and said he believed it had occurred because the contracter on the Central Utah Project had diverted water down 1100 North, saturating the shoulder of the road so that when trucks drove over it, it caused damage. He said he felt that the contractor was responsible for the damage and that the repairs should be made before the project continues. The road was just overlaid last summer, he reminded the council, and the road should have handled the traffic if it had not been saturated by the water. The contractor's representative reported that the weather was very wet at the time the water was pumped. He also stated that another .contractor was working above the ' site with trucks and the contractor in question was not driving trucks over the site at that time. He added that although his company was definitely responsible for some of the damage, he did not feel they were totally responsible. It was explained that the con-tractor had blocked the normal drainage and this caused the water to go down the road. The council told the contractor that the city would not issue a permit to cross 200 South until the damage on' 1100 North is repaired or a bond is posted to guarantee the repairs. alley 1 GSWJD OPENING SPECIALS - $9900 flny pu sjze Windshield Chev For7 y?"
