Vice Chairman Lyons appreciated the presentation and assured Elder Jones that their concerns are shared by every member of the County Commission. He emphasized that this is not a black and white problem; it is a neighborhood problem, and it concerns us all. He believed some of the requests listed will require advice from our Attorney about what we can do and cannot do, and some of these things the residents are going to have to address themselves. Fran Ross, speaking from the audience, noted that the county has the agencies, and they should enforce these things. Vice Chairman Lyons pointed out there are more things to be done than people to do them, and it requires the cooperation of the citizens to help us put the heat on where it should be placed. He assured those present that the Commission will look into all the points raised and come back with an answer. Elder Jones requested that they be supplied a list of county ordinances that affect the Giftord area. r Commissioner Bird stated that he would like to have the County Attorney check the laws and see what does pertain to the points that have been raised here, and then when this has been ascertained, we would call a meeting including the Sheriff, the Health Department, etc., and bring all those involved together to see what can be enforced and also what we may be lacking. Commissioner Bowman noted that we know we have building codes and sanitation codes and we could start right now with complaints to the Health Department and the Building Department; however, first we need information from the community as to where these places are. Vice Chairman Lyons noted that the community has given us a task; we accept it; and we will get back to them. Elder Jones expressed appreciation and his opinion that the county has a good Board of County Commissioners. Commissioner Wodtke felt the Ministerial Alliance can be a very integral part of what they are asking us to accomplish. 47 JUN 2 5 1996 BOOK 64 PA -UE 8?
