Show Flood-control land purchased By CHERIE HUBER FARMINGTON Davis County has now acquired about 80 percent of the total acreage necessary to begin the planned flood control work in Clinton. Agreements have been signed to obtain 14.3992 acres of Orson Davis property, 2.274 acres from Bruce Turner and 3.943 acres of the Parker property. Current plans are for the Clearfield Job Corps to begin preliminary pre-liminary work on the sites before the end of the month. A request for bids from contractors will be advertised in the next few weeks. The area in which drainage pipe will be laid goes from the city park to 2000 West. In other flood control work, easements to Ricks Creek from 200 West have been obtained in the Smoot Park, Centerville area. The easements will give county flood control workers access to Ricks Creek should the need arise. |
