Show West Bountiful Drainage Project Started By ALICE MITCHELL A citizen. George PfeilTer attended the West Bountiful City Council meeting to air his views concerning the snow removal re-moval job being done in his subdivision, the Evergreen Subdivision. THE SNOWS of this winter will never be forgotten, because be-cause of the several snow storms, ice layers on top and still more ice and snow storms. It has been very difficult to do any snow removing. Several blades have been broke in the job being done. The 5th S. drainage improvement im-provement project is on its way. It is well lo remember that the project is being done by the county. All of the improvements im-provements in the county are under the direction of the county and help from the cities. A GROUP of scouts from the 1st Ward were in attendance. attend-ance. Mrs. LaVerne Greaves is the leader. There was discussion of appointing a member of the Board of Adjustments, to fill a vacancy on the board. It was stressed that the member had finished his months of service to the city. THERE WAS discussion concerning the passage of ordinance ordi-nance R-7-84 concerning the work which is to be used to gather money for the project in Sunnyview. It was reiterated that the section of Sunnyview which was being assisted with drainage drain-age problems was labeled "blight" area. Actually it is an area which might not grow as much if the drainange project were not accomplished. The problem areas are between 10th to I6th North. COUNCILMAN Dewell admitted that there were a lot of places which needed repairs on the roads. But the wintry weather, snow and ice have made it impossible to accomplish accom-plish the projects. Councilman Von Hill reported re-ported that he had visited with Tony Cirelli of the county and found him happy to do what he can do to help. Engineer Fred Campbell and Attorney Keith Stahle also offered to do everything every-thing he can to make the projects pro-jects possible. BIDS ON Mill Creek should be let in a month. Then the project pro-ject can go forward. The county coun-ty may receive help from the Chevron Pipe Line. It is hoped that Phillips will join in also. Mayor Grant H. Secrist said he had thought that the waters coming down the mountain would be cleaned as they progressed. prog-ressed. It was found that the waters brought more debris down and clogged ditches and water passages. MRS. IRENE Janes asked if it would be possible for the list of expenditures paid to the attorney to be itemized. In such a manner city councilmen might be assured of what the wages he is paid are used for. Councilman Dewell said it might prove advantageous to do so. Police Chief Wayne Jeppson said he was interested in how many of the city have the rights of talking with the attorney. He feels that it is quite all right to talk to Mr. Stahle for coun-cilmen coun-cilmen problems, for the mayors and others, but it shouldn"t be made that everyone every-one can have audience cart blanche. COUNCILMAN Sam All-man All-man said that Mitch George and Co. had asked for annexation annexa-tion for a trailer park on his property north of the flood canal between I Ith W. and the D&RG tracks. The trouble is that the county has no trailer ordinance drawn up. The council will puruse the matter. It was reported that the South Davis Sewer Co. is eager ea-ger to be prepaid for the spring runoff. COUNCILMAN Allman also reported that the power surge burned the motor up. This will require much repair. They are wondering how to get the parts of the pump out. It may be able to be taken through the roof. Mr. Allman says he wants the well to be brought up to full capacity as soon as possible. He hopes in this manner, to avoid buying extra waterfrom Weber Basin. Councilman Allman said that he is interested in what should be done to the park. He would like to have a public hearing to learn what the citizens might want to be done. He wonders if they would rather put up some more small Part 3. non specific offenses and services, suspicious vehicle. vehi-cle. 23 1 this year. 2X4 last: suspicious sus-picious persons. 63 this year. 96 last: suspicious circumstances. circumst-ances. 54 both years: family neighborhood disputes. 67 this year and 46 last year: prowlers. prow-lers. 17 this year. 3 last: missing mis-sing persons. 2 this year. 3 last: lost child. 12 this year. 5 last: animal bite. 8 this year and 5 last year.

It will be necessary neces-sary for Police Chief Jeppson to teach people how to get in and out of the city. Time was spent as people talked of the number of sangbags necessary. neces-sary. There is a plastic type of bag on the market now. but it is not bio-degradable. We need at least the same amount of bags as we were able to get last year. There is also a question where to place the bags where they will do the most good. Councilman Sam Allman said he cannot direct the 4th of July in the city since he is in charge of the Handcart days parade later in July. THERE WAS a discussion as to the fact that the street needed to be better in Tri-D. Carr Printing wants to build a store. If the businesses want better roads, it may be possible to cooperate with them. The goals for the next year were talked about by Mayor and the council. They would like to have a dog catcher. There is a need to help fix the sidewalks. I Ith West needs an overlay. ERIC Eastman attended the meeting to talk about the use of computers. The city's machine is quite old since new additions are being made all the time. Former Councilman Eric Eastman and Councilman Dewell De-well said they should use the same machine and add new programs. The council will look into the various possibilities. possibili-ties. THEY CONTINUED studying study-ing aims for the following year. They must make decisions concerning the park, the work on 5th South must be done. We need to become familiar with emergency programs for the region.
