Show Trouble Expected From High Water During Run-Off We anticipate trouble from high water in the spring from the record precipation during the winter, win-ter, and the city council urges all residents of Pleasant Grove to cooperate in eliminating flood damage, Mayor W. Robert Marrott Mar-rott stated Thursday. Mayor Marrott sajd the city will handle the water situation as far as it can go, but home owners will have to take cognizance of the situation. He said the city has been condemned con-demned for trying to maintain the old flood control stream beds. "We may have to open them up to protect the community, whether it disturbs some resident's back yard or not," Mayor Marrott said. Water content of snows, and snow fall are almost double in some parts of the mountains which affect Pleasant Grove, and the city is now anticipating heavy runoff never before experienced, he said. |
