Gunderson, chair-man of the Salt Lake County commission, has announced his candicacy for the commission post again. He will run for the two-ye- ar term in the fall elect-ion. Mr. Gunderson was elected , to a two-ye- ar term in 1D53 and 1951 and re-elect- ed for a four-ye- ar term which ends this year. He has served as chairman of the commission for the past two years. In his six years in office, Mr. Gunderson has headed the roads and bridges department of the county. He was a con-struction man before entering politics, and his experience in the field has fitted him well, for the roads assignment with the county commission. During his administration records show that road const-ruction has doubled, while the budget has remained about the same. More than 800 miles of road are now maintained by the county. In connexion with the road work, about ten bridges per year have been installed during Gunderson's administration, eliminating narrow two-lan-e brides which have created ser-ious traffic hazards for modern cement bridges which cover the full 50-fo- ot right-of-wa-y. Two of these bridges have just been completed in the Kearns area. Under Commissioner Gunder-son's direction, 18 river-straig- ht erring projects have been com-pleted in the Jordan River flood control program, bring-ing some 750 acres of valu-able land into use for play-grounds, homes or other uses. After years of litigation and delay, the much-neede- d county sewer program was started and has just about been com-pleted in all six sewer districts of the county. Mr. Gunderson will run on the Republican ticket. |
