Torrey Town Council April 8

by Amiee Maxwell TORREY - The April 8, 2021 Torrey Town Council meeting kicked off with a maintenance report by Dustin Oyler. He will be meeting this week with the Forest Service over Zoom to discuss when they can get started again on the springs development project. He was also given the okay by the council to rent a trencher, although it’s not in the budget, to fix an issue with the cemetery lawn.

Next, Mickey Wright presented the revised zoning ordinance to the council.

Councilmember Pat Kearney made a motion to accept the zoning ordinance, and the ordinance was approved unanimously effective April 8. 2021.

The council then reviewed a request by Chimi Ito to subdivide his property. The Torrey Canal runs right through the middle of the property, so they can’t approve the request until a variance application is completed. The council will advise Ito on filling out the proper variance paperwork.

The council then mentioned that the tenant is moving out of the town’s rental house and discussed a few improvements that are needed.

Maintenance needs will be discussed further at the next council work meeting.

Then, it was on to a council member vote on two Torrey Council Cont'd on page 6

Mike Petree, Bob Flugrad, Jeff Oyler, Steve Taylor, Ricky Norman and Dick Williams break ground for the new Fremont Bell Tower in John C. Fremont Park on April 10.

FREMONT - After over fifty years of roaming, the Old Fremont Bell will be finally re-homed in a new bell tower in John C. Fremont Park. On Sunday, April 10th, the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers (DUP) held a groundbreaking ceremony for what will be the “new” Old Fremont Bell Tower.

According to DUP Camp Geyser Officer Lauralee Williams, the Fremont Bell, “Will be permanently mounted on a rock structure about five feet high, and four by six feet in width, similar to the one in Teasdale.”

The ground-breaking ceremony was an important step in the process.

Boulder Elementary Students Celebrate National Poetry Month

BES student Lowe Palmer recites from memory "Because I could not stop for Death" by Emily Dickinson.

BOULDER - Holding a red sock puppet and in the sweet voice of Little Red Riding Hood, student Kaela Navar recites—from memory —the first half of a poem, “In the Hood,” by Marilyn Singer. When she is finished, her brother Logan Navar, dark sock puppet in hand and in the harsher voice of the Big Bad Wolf, recites back the second half of the poem. The poem, they explain, which is from a collection called "Mirror Mirror," can be read both backwards or forwards, taking on the perspective of Little Red Riding Hood or the Big Bad Wolf, depending on the direction.

This presentation was

This effort was part of the first annual statewide Feed Utah food drive in partnership with Associated Food Stores, Just Serve, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the NAACP, and the Boys and Girls Clubs of Utah Alliance.

During the Pandemic, more people than ever are struggling to feed themselves and their children. It is admirable that so many in our community recognized that and were so generous.

This food drive brought together the power of Utah's diverse religions, communities,and organizations in the fight against hunger, intensified by the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Janeal Moosman, the director of the Wayne County Food Bank, reported that it was the largest donation she has seen in 15 years.

The Food Bank is opened on the 3rd Wednesday of the month at the Bicknell Community Center. The hours are from 1:00-3:00.

For their latest outing, The Cruisers visited Goblin Valley and the Temple Mountain petroglyphs, along with a stop in Hanksville for ice cream.

WAYNE COUNTY - The Wayne County Cruisers are at it again. We had a great day trip to Goblin Valley, and the bus was full of energetic folks who were excited to get out and enjoy the out of doors. We explored the hoodoos, had a picnic lunch, and experienced the Temple Mountain petroglyphs. We stopped in Hanksville on the way back home for ice cream.

On Monday, April 12th, we had our biggest turnout since the beginning of COVID. We had 54 cruisers come out for lunch and to play Bingo. I was so excited to see smiling faces that hadn’t been out since February 2020. I want to thank James and Janet Adams for picking up those who needed a ride. The bus is back up and running, so if you need a ride, give us a call.

April 21st was a cold, blustery day for an ATV ride,

but we had a great turn out for our first grand adventure. We explored the Velvet Ridge, ate our lunch on the trail and planned our next ride, which will be on May 18th. Mark your calendar and join us.

We have exciting and new programs that we want to get up running. We have interest in a rockhounding group, a small hiking group, and a jewelry class. I would love to get a gardening class started, and if you know of anyone who knows what grows here and when to plant, send them our way.

I just want to thank all the volunteers, who, without their help, this program would not run. If you, or anyone you know, would like to volunteer, please contact me.

CCAW Provides Rescue Services to the Animals of Wayne County

by Color Country Animal Welfare

Courtesy CCAW

Color Country Animal Welfare assists with animal rescues by providing vet care, looking for microchips that could help to identify owners, and by providing foster homes in the case that no owner is found.

TORREY - Some people have asked about the process Color Country Animal Welfare (CCAW) goes through to rescue animals. It starts with a phone call from someone

who has found an animal they feel needs help or is lost. If the person is unable to keep the animal until the possible owner is located, we make arrangements to take the animal to one of our foster family’s homes. We check the dog or cat for a microchip, take photos, and look the animal over for any obvious injuries. If the animal appears to need veterinary care, we make an appointment and take them in. If there are no ID tags, but a rabies tag, we attempt to track down the veterinarian with whom the tag is registered.

CCAW then posts photos and descriptive information of the animal on multiple Facebook sites in an attempt to locate the owner. We’ve found that in the small community of Wayne County, Facebook reaches the most people, and oftentimes, people share the

post and the owner is quickly found. We keep the animal in foster care for one week in order to find the owner. Then, if no owner is located, we have the animal checked out by a local veterinarian to make sure the dog or cat is spayed or neutered, receives a rabies vaccination, and is generally in good health.

We do an assessment of the animal’s ability to get along with other animals and humans, we identify other behavioral and training issues or needs, and we post the animal for adoption on Facebook and CCAW’s webpage. Meanwhile, a foster family continues to care for the animal and acclimate it to living in a household. Adoptions can take a long time to find the right fit, and we’re grateful to our foster families.

It really helps us to reunite a lost cat or dog with its owner

when the animal has a collar with ID tags and a microchip.

There is a common misconception that animals who appear to be lost will find their way home if they’re just left alone. But even if they are relatively close to home, there is no guarantee they will make it back on their own. Plus, because we live in a tourist area and people travel with their pets, it does happen that they get lost here. Tourists also tend to see loose animals as lost and bring them to CCAW. We so appreciate that people call us when they feel an animal needs our help, and are also appreciative of our wonderful foster parents, local veterinarian and all of the people who have given so many of our animals wonderful homes.

None of this would be possible without all these caring people.

Thank you!

Ground-breaking: A ground-breaking ceremony

for the new bell tower for the Old Fremont Bell took place on April 10 at John C. Fremont Park. The tower is expected to be finished by July 24 of this year.

Ground-breaking Cont'd from page 1

stand to be recognized and introduced. She also explained how the materials for the tower were donated from the abandoned Albrecht homestead. The rock structure will be constructed of reclaimed “welded tuff,” a type of rock comprised of volcanic ash.

Repurposing material from the old homestead will allow the building to be made out of authentic historic local materials. The old quarry is now unused since it is too hard and dangerous to be mined. At the homestead, there is still plenty of tuff available since it begins about fifteen feet back from the outer rock and goes, “all the way back,” according to Fremont native and local historian Steve Taylor. As the original builders of the Fremont Bell’s first home were Albrechts, it is fitting the repurposed tuff comes from the old Albrecht homestead.

Steve Taylor shared the story of the bell. It came to Fremont to be the school bell in about 1907 when the mercantile store went out of business. “The chimes of the bell were part of life in Fremont for the school day and July celebrations,” said Taylor.

Unfortunately, the bell disappeared when the school was torn down in 1963.

The bell found its way to the Jackson farm in Fruita before traveling to California and a descendant, Mrs. Pamela Brodie Smith, was willing to donate the bell to the DUP when she learned the bell had come from Fremont. When the bell was returned, members of the county helped restore it free of charge. With the bell back to prime condition, attention turned to making a permanent home for it.

The ground-breaking came after three years of planning and fundraising, and the tower is expected to be finished in time for this year’s 24th of July celebration.

After the introductory speeches, all the men from the building committee went outside and picked up their shovels. Steve Taylor’s prominence was underlined as he took a center place in the picture. (The committee is informally referred to as "Steve’s Committee" in recognition of his central role.) There had been balloons on the handles of the shovels, but they had broken by the time everyone had come out of the building.

With the ground ceremoniously broken, and pictures taken, the shovels were set down. The DUP had brought cake for everyone to enjoy on the 120th birthday of the DUP’s creation in Salt Lake.

As with every event, when the food was served, all were free to go, with some staying longer to talk than others.

In order to help with the bell’s new tower, you can mail donations to Lauralee Williams, PO Box 622, Fremont, Utah 84747. She is also open to questions you may have on the bell and other DUP projects/ sites. Or you can join the Facebook group Daughters of the Utah Pioneers Wayne Company, Wayne County Utah in order to say updated on their events.

Fremont Bell: After 55 years,

a phone call from Pamela Brodie Smith would bring the Old Fremont Bell back to Utah, where is will receive a permanent location in the soon to be built Fremont Bell Tower in John C. Fremont Park.

Fremont Bell

Cont'd from page 1

It seems that the Brodie family had the bell the whole time but had forgotten where it came from. When Pamela Brodie Smith’s brother died, she found the bell among his effects. He had been willed the bell from their great uncle Brodie who had lived in Fruita. Finding the Fremont Bell, which she remembered playing with as a child, she wanted to know where it came from and called Capitol Reef National Park because she could, from family records, trace it back to the town of Fruita. The park rangers referred her to Steve Taylor.

After discussion, Mrs. Smith agreed to donate the bell to the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers (DUP), once she was reassured it wasn’t going to the Church. As the Smiths were coming to Utah for a reunion, they offered to drive the bell from California, and they arranged a meeting with Taylor. Taylor brought his tractor, and they loaded the 300 pound bell into the scoop. And with that, Taylor was the guardian of the bell whose chime once let him know it was time for school.

Store to School House When the Albrecht Brothers first moved to Fremont, they set up a business as builders. They were expert stone masons, so it only made sense that they would continue doing what they knew. In the 1890s, they built a mercantile store for Joseph Anderson, and when it went out of business in between 1902 and 1907, a bell tower was added to the building and Fremont’s bell sent for as it was converted to a two room schoolhouse.

Steve Taylor remembers that the bell would ring “fifteen minutes before school” and “ten minutes before the end of recess,” and it was a sound all the town knew.

It also chimed for July celebrations. It was a heartbeat to Fremont life that everyone recognized and took for granted, until it was gone.

According to Steve Taylor, “the school was aban-

doned in the 1940s but was torn down in 1963 to make way for the Fremont Ward building.” The well in the basement was a vital source of water to the houses around it, and no one wanted to endanger that until a replacement was available. When it was finally torn down in 1963 and the dust cleared, the bell was nowhere to be found. And that was the last of the bell for 55 years.

Returned Home When Steve Taylor got up on a sunny day in 2018, he had long given up on finding what had happened to the bell whose chime was so tied into his childhood. That is until the phone call that changed all of that, with Mrs. Pamela Brodie Smith calling from Alaska to find where an old bell belonged.

That exciting call was the start of another story. The DUP were raising donations largely through the 2018 24th of July breakfast and an “ask letter,” forming a committee and looking for a place to keep the bell when it came.

When it arrived, the county chipped in to return the bell to its old self.

The building committee agreed they needed to use the original building material of welded tuff in order to make a house for the bell, and in this, the Albrecht brothers came back into the story.

An old Albrecht homestead had that material, was abandoned, and has been donated for the DUP to build with.

The committee turned to members Bob Hulgrad and Jeff Oyler to assemble the pieces into a freestanding bell tower, which they plan to complete by July 24th so it will be ready for dedication.

When its stand is completed, the bell will ring proudly in John C. Fremont Park with other buildings that the DUP has saved.

Even the park itself has been donated by the locals to the DUP. As spring comes, there will be a cleanup in the park on Saturday, April 24 from 9am to 1pm—or any amount of time you can help in between. Anyone can come and bring shovels, rakes, gloves, and relatives to help, as well.

Every Child Deserves to Grow Up in a Safe, Stable and Nurturing Environment

GARFIELD COUNTY April is National Child Abuse Awareness and Prevention Month. This month, and throughout the year, the Garfield County Children’s Justice Center encourages all individuals and organizations to play a role in making Garfield County a better place for children and families. Focusing on ways to promote protective factors in every interaction with children and families is the best thing our community can do to address child maltreatment.

“Sadly, statistics show that 1 in 5 children in Utah are victims of abuse. There needs to be support and justice for those children,” said CJC Victim Services Coordinator Teresa Wood “That is why Children’s Justice Centers (CJC’s) are so important.” With the completion of Utah’s 25th Children’s Justice Center, located in Garfield County, every child in Utah now has access to the services the CJC’s provide. Services

such as providing a safe and child friendly environment for children who are victims of abuse to talk about what happened to them. Other services include trauma screening for suicide prevention, child victim advocacy, free medical exams for abuse victims, help enrolling in free preventative services that can help strengthen families, referrals to mental health counselling for children who are victims of physical or sexual abuse, domestic violence, drug endangerment, sexual exploitation, bullying, or cyberbullying, assistance with child protective orders and crime victim reparations applications, multidisciplinary approach to child abuse investigation, community education, and more.

As a visual symbol of hope and to raise awareness regarding the truth about child abuse, Garfield County Children’s Justice Center has put up banners and planted a pinwheel garden in front of the center in Panguitch, UT. The

Friends Board for the center, has provided blue pinwheels and a coloring contest with prizes to elementary school age children throughout the county. The color blue is used as a symbol of child abuse awareness. The pinwheel represents safe and happy childhood, and is a symbol of hope for survivors of child abuse.

The coloring contest goes until April 30th, and elementary age children should receive an entry form from their school teacher. There are extra forms and pinwheels located at the Center in Panguitch at 250 E. Center. By ensuring that parents have the knowledge, skills, and resources they need to care for their children, we can help promote children’s social and emotional wellbeing and address child maltreatment within families and communities.

April is a time to celebrate the important role that communities play in the protecting of children. Everyone’s participation is critical.

Bryce Valley Elementary has been planning their field trips and different class projects. They enjoy the warmer weather so they can enjoy the outdoor sports of spring. Baseball, T-ball, Coach pitch, volleyball and just playing outside is definitely where they want to be right now. With COVID, so much was missed last year, so it is nice to begin these fun activities. The 4th6th graders spent half a day at Kodachrome State Park. They hiked, played games and enjoyed the outdoors. The kids will surely be hiking Bryce Canyon soon, as well.

Mr. Peterson and the 7th12th graders are busy learning their songs and lines for the play they will be performing at Bryce Valley High School.

You should see fliers up around the schools and towns.

Bobcats have strong week in track, horseshoe matches, and girls softball The track team is doing really well, and they had two big meets last week. At the Nyle Norris meet up at Richfield, the Cats were the only 1A school that was there.

In the Boys 1,600, Porter Schoppe took 5th in the 110 m hurdles, and Tucker Chappell took 8th. In the Girls 100 m, Dabijean Henrie took 7th.

In the Girls 400 m, Adelade Englestead took 2nd, and Debijean Henrie took 6th. In the Boys 400 m, Klyn Fullmer took 2nd. In the Girls 300 m, Lexie Palmer took 7th. In the Girls 800 m, Lexie Palmer took 7th, and in the Girls 200 m, Debijean Henrie took 5th. In the Boys 200 m, Klyn Fullmer took 5th. In the Girls 3,200 m, Adelaide Englestead took 2nd. In the Girls 4x400, PHS was 2nd.

In the Girls Javelin, Nealynn Cox took 2nd. In the Boys shot put, Kyler Bennett took 2nd, and Tucker Chappell took 3rd.

In the Boys discus, Kyler Bennett took 3rd.

The boys team came in 5th and the girls 4th, and they had a combined score that put them in 3rd place. Again, they were the only 1A school there.

In the Desert Hills meet, which had hundreds of competitors, the Cats again came out #1 in the 1A teams. In the sprint relay, the girls took 2nd and the boys also came in 2nd. In the Girls 400 m, Tabetha Henrie took 3rd, in the Girls high jump, Tabetha Henrie took 5th. In the Boys Javelin, Kyler Bennett took 3rd, in the Boys shot put,

Tucker Chapell took 3rd, and Kyler Bennett took 5th. In the Boys Discus, Kyler Bennett took 6th, and in the Girls Javelin, Nealynn Cox took 4th.

What makes these track teams so good is that they are made up of many freshmen and sophomores and some really good juniors and few seniors.

There are also great parents, coaches, and friends.

Benji Rains, who built our horseshoe pits down at the county fair complex, has a high school horseshoe pitching team, and this is their second year. The kids are doing great. They played two matches last week beating Hurricane 7 out of 9 matches on Tuesday.

Thanks to Katie and Cole and Harland and Hunter Bridges.

Thursday, they went to St. George and won 8 out of 9 matches. George and Hunter Bridges and Stetson Marshall and Brayden Frandsen won big time. The team will be in Cedar City on the 20th and will play here in Panguitch on April 22 and April 29. The matches start at 5 p.m. and are the only games in town. Come on out and support the team.

Go, Bobcats. The horseshoe pits are for use, and they are a great exercise.

The girls softball team only has one more home game and that is on May 5th. In our district, only Piute, Milford and Wayne have teams, so most of the games they play are against 2A teams on the road.

Steps for Handling An Inheritance Of all the money that may pass through your hands during your lifetime, none is more emotion-laden than an inheritance. After all, you got it because somebody died. If the inheritance was unexpected, or large compared to your lifestyle, before you spend it, evaluate your situation: 1. Figure out exactly what you have and what you're owed. Typically, you don't just receive a check from the administrator of the estate; you get bits and pieces of different investments. Usually, you get a "stepped-up basis," meaning that the costbasis of the assets are determined as of the date of death.

So even if your father bought stock in IBM when it was $5 a share, if it was worth $125 a share when he died (and after multiple stock splits), your cost basis is $125. If you sell the stock at $130 a share, your capital gain is only $5.

You also won't necessarily get all of the assets at the same time. Getting bits and pieces of your inheritance at different times is confusing, and it makes figuring out what you have all the more difficult. But you must know how much your inheritance is, how it is invested and what the cost basis is to make good decisions.

2. Make a list of your short-term and long-term

by Jeffery J. McKenna goals. Assign dollar amounts to each goal and then compare your inheritance with how much you'll need to meet your goals. When you inherit money, it is very tempting to spend it on short-term goals such as remodeling the kitchen or buying a new car. However, many of us are going to have difficulty meeting our long-term goals such as retirement and education for our children, and an inheritance may be the only way we can achieve them.

Write down those long-term goals next to the short-term ones.

3. Decide how much you're going to splurge. If you know that you can meet your long-term goals, you can set aside money for short term goals, like that new car.

Set up a separate bank account for this money, and when it's gone, that's it—no dipping into the rest of the inheritance.

4. Set aside three to six months' worth of your regular expenses in an emergency fund. If you don't already have an emergency fund, this is important. Emergency fund money could be put in a shortterm, fixed-income investment such as a money-market account.

5. Establish an investment strategy for your longterm goals. The rest of your inheritance is your long-term goal money and, if you're for-

When my daughter, Tiffany, was five, I gave her a scratch card.

Excitedly, she started scratching the silver panel with a coin.

When she was done, she looked at the card. She sighed, continued scratching, then looked at the card again.

"Can you help me?" she asked.

I looked at the card, "Sorry dear," I said, "You didn't win."

"But Mom," Tiffany said, "it says, "Try again!"

Night Shift

My husband used to work the night shift, so in the evening my five-year old would climb into bed with me.

One night, my husband came home early.

"That's my wife," he joked. "Get in your own bed."

"Fine," grumbled our son as he stormed off.

"When I have a wife, you can't sleep with her either."

Oven Mitts

At day care, my fouryear-old watched as a teacher pulled something hot from the oven.

"What's that on your hand?" he asked.

"An oven mitt," she said.

"It keeps me from getting burned. Doesn't your mother use them?"

"No, my mom's just really careful when she opens the pizza box."

Flight

I was flying with my husband and two-month-old daughter to Kansas for a family wedding and met up with my father on a connecting flight.

He was sitting in business class and felt guilty because we were in coach. To compensate, Dad made his way to the back of the plane after take off, bringing with him some firstclass goodies and taking my fidgety daughter up front with him for a few minutes.

Just then, a woman behind me, who had seen the whole thing, leaned forward and asked, "Did you just trade that baby for a couple of packs of pretzels and some cookies?"

FYI PanguItch

by Mack Oetting ~ mackoetting @gmail.com The southern part of the state is under fire watch due to the lack of moisture. It does show that in paradise, where we live, we are clear of the warning. Clear over to Cedar City is the only area that is out of the danger zone.

Our daughter, Shawn, followed a longtime tradition of riding the last chair lift of the season at Brian Head Ski Resort. Shawn has worked at the resort for 41 years, and this tradition of her last ride has been going on for over 25 of those years. So skiers, put you boards away for the year.

There will be a change in the Chocolate Fest this year.

It will be moved over to the fair building. It will still be on Wednesday, June 9th. This will save having to move all of the tables and chairs from the fair building to the high school. The town's favorite singer will again honor us with his great music, Brent Leach.

As a reminder, the Chocolate Fest is a Sub for Santa event.

Also, the Panguitch Lions Club will be having their famous Quilt Walk all-youcan-eat breakfast at the Zions Bank. They also will be hosting breakfast at the Panguitch Balloon Rally and the 4th of July. I haven’t heard if the fiddlers will be here or not. They are my favorite.

President Biden made

good on his promise of 200 million doses of the vaccine in his first 100 days in office, and it could even hit 300 by the 1st of June. Over half of the eligible people in our country have received at least one shot. There has been a hold up on the J. & J. vaccine because, out of the 7 million doses that have been delivered, six women have come down with blood clots on their lungs. That is less than one case per million, and how many lives have been saved with the 7 million shots? Here in Garfield County, we only had two new cases from April 2 to the 17th. Keep signing up for those shots. The tourists will be here shortly. Many of the states that opened up early are having a spike in the virus, and it is among the 18 to 49 age group.

The NBA season only has 20 more games to go, and the Jazz still have the best record. They just played four games in six nights and like all of the teams, they lost one of their best players, Donavan Mitchel, to a sprained ankle.

These top players in the NBA just don’t know when to take it easy. They are the ones that you see diving for balls. Their desire to win is what makes them so special. This schedule they are playing is a real killer.

Kevin Durant, who plays for

the Nets, reinjured his leg in his second game back. Hopefully, all of these stars will be back in time for the finals.

It is time for more of “For Your Information,” so tune out if you don’t want to hear some facts. The number of billionaires on Forbes 36th annual ranking swelled by 660 to 2,765 in one year. Their fortunes increased to $13.1 trillion, up from $8 trillion from last year. The top ten have wealth of $1.15 trillion.

Amazon’s Jeff Bezos is still in first place, for the fourth year in a row, with a net worth of $177 billion.

Bezos is calling for higher taxes on corporations and endorses President Biden’s proposal to increase the corporate tax rate from 21% to 28% and close loopholes that allow companies to move profits overseas. The Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy found 55 corporations that made a total of $40.5 billion paid zero in Federal taxes last year.

The reason for these tax increases is for President Biden’s Infrastructure bill,. $115 billion will go for a 10 year program for rebuilding 20,000 miles of roads and bridges, $165 billion for modernizing the transit system, $80 billion for Amtrak upgrading, $174 billion for re-

bates for electric vehicles and 500,000 charging stations, $110 billion to upgrade public school buildings, $40 billion to improve public housing, and $213 billion to build and retrofit 2 million homes and commercial buildings for energy efficiency. The largest single proposal is $400 billion for long term home care for the elderly and disabled.

It is providing Americans with a foundation on which to succeed, whether that means removing lead pipes from our water supply systems or funding for government fleets of electric vehicles, or upgrading child care centers. $180 billion will go to clean energy research and providing $16 billion to retrain workers in fossil fuel trades for transition to new jobs. Is it real infrastructure?

Who cares; it is all productive investment in the nation’s future.

It looks like the wind is going to be around again this year, and it probably won’t be letting up any time soon, which adds to the fire problem. There have been 145 fires already this year burning over 6,000 acres in Utah.

Please be careful with your campfires, ashes from your fireplace, etc.

Torrey Council: A request for a property subdivision, annexation proposals,

the new Torrey Fire Station, new business license for Sleeping Rainbow Adventures and revocation of Fremont River Guide Service's business license due to unpaid taxes, rescinding of approval by the Torrey Planning and Zoning Committee for the proposal of a gas station at The Saddlery—with further consultation needed—and Travis Van Orden's frustration regarding this issue, AmeriCorps Torrey service projects, and a lighting compliance issue discussed.

Torrey Council

Cont'd from page 1

recent annexation proposals on the west side of town just south of Highway 24. Councilmember Pat Kearney made a motion to accept both parcels saying she’d like to move forward with joining Torrey Town. The motion passed and a public hearing will be held on May 13th.

Wayne County Fire Chief Steve Lutz then took the floor to discuss the plans for the new Torrey Fire Station.

There were several delays with the engineering, but he was happy to report that they will be closing on the loan and grant on April 9, 2021. Bids came in much higher than

budgeted given the sharp rise in material costs. Lutz noted that Commissioner Blackburn really went to bat for this project at the CIB and was able to get another $300,000 in funding. The building will be owned and maintained by the county and was designed with Torrey’s future growth in mind, including room for a future ambulance.

Mason McCord then requested a business license for Sleeping Rainbow Adventures, an outdoor guide service providing jeep tours, star parties, hiking tours, and shuttle services. They will have no storefront and plan to pick up clients from hotels.

The council approved this business license request. The

council also mentioned that they received a notice from the State of Utah to revoke Fremont River Guide Service’s business license due to unpaid taxes.

Next, Mickey Wright and Jordan Pace led a discussion regarding the proposed gas station at The Saddlery. The planning and zoning committee admitted making a mistake in approving the business license for the gas station. It turns out that The Saddlery is currently zoned as a nonconforming entity and an application for a building use change needs to be completed first. The committee needs to rescind the approval and will consult the land use attorney on how to best proceed.

Wright said, “I do apologize for messing up.”

Then, it was on to council member reports. Councilmember Pat Kearney reported that Americorps members are going to help plant trees on Arbor Day. Councilmember Pearl Thorndal-Stewart mentioned that they’re looking for a volunteer to paint the post office, and Town Clerk Paula Pace wanted to give a shout-out to the community members that put on the Easter Egg Hunt. She said it was a huge success and would like to make it an annual event.

Pace also mentioned that a community member would like to pay for the town’s recycling for two years and will add recycling details to the pavilion rental agreement.

Bill Barrett was on the agenda to discuss an appeal of the conditional use permit approved by the planning and

zoning committee for The Saddlery gas station but said he is withdrawing this appeal considering the permitting process has to start all over again.

Travis Van Orden then took the floor to discuss his frustration with his conditional use permit request for The Saddlery expansion. He feels like he’s been given the run-around since starting the permitting process in March of 2020. “It’s not a popularity contest,” said Van Orden, “It’s a proposal and an ordinance.” The current ordinance does not explicitly exclude gas stations, and he said he intends to protect his rights.

Next was an update on a lighting complaint against Gale and Gerald Snedeger.

The Torrey Dark Skies folks contacted Garkane regarding this issue, and Garkane has agreed to make an adjustment on the light. Nancy Roth, a property owner affected by this issue, then offered to pay for any costs associated with adjusting the light. The council agreed the issue should be resolved between Dark Skies and the property owner.

The meeting concluded with Councilmember Thorndal-Stewart notifying everyone that Governor Cox just dedicated April 2021 as official “Utah Dark Sky Month.”

Torrey Town Council meetings are held on the 2nd Thursday of every month at 7:00 p.m. June - October and 6:30 p.m November - May— unless otherwise noted.

April 26 - May 2

by John Mosley The Sky Report is presented as a public service by the Stellar Vista Observatory, a nonprofit organization based in Kanab, Utah, which provides opportunities for people to observe, appreciate, and comprehend our starry night sky. Additional information is at www.stellarvistaobservatory.org. Send questions and comments to John@StargazingAdventures.org.

I always emphasize the planets because they’re what changes the quickest in the sky, and for the next two weeks, all five naked-eye planets are visible at one time or another.

Venus has been behind the sun since late last year, but it’s starting to peek out to the left, or east, of the sun, and it’ll be visible in the evening sky the rest of the year. This week, it’s still nearly in line with the sun, and it sets long before the sky is dark, but it’s so bright that you should spot it if you have a very low west-northwest horizon. As always, binoculars are a great help. On May 1st, it’s only 10° from the sun and it sets 45 minutes after the sun, so look almost immediately after sunset. Each day, Venus is a little farther from the sun and sets a bit later, and if you don’t see it this week, you will soon— certainly by the end of May. On what date will you first see it?

Because Venus is on the far side of the sun, telescopically, it’s tiny and at full phase; late this year, it’ll be closer and then it’ll be a large crescent.

Mercury is near Venus, and it also is on the far side of the sun and emerging from the sun’s glare. On the 26th, Mercury is 2° to the upper right of Venus; you’ll need binoculars.

On the following nights it’s progressively farther above Venus and easier to see. Watch it move substantially night-bynight.

Mars is half-way up the western sky at sunset and it sets around midnight. Mars is in the feet of the Gemini twins and to the upper right of Orion. It’s only as bright as the brighter stars.

Jupiter and Saturn are in the southeast, and the best time to see them is an hour or so before sunrise when they’ve risen high enough to clear local landmarks. Jupiter is by far the brightest thing in the sky,

except the moon, and Saturn is 15° to the upper right of Jupiter and only 1/15th as bright.

Last year, Jupiter passed Saturn and the two planets were especially close together, but Jupiter orbits the sun faster and is pulling away from Saturn, slowly leaving it behind, and they won’t be this close again until 2040.

John Mosley was Program Supervisor of the Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles for 27 years and is the author of “Stargazing for Beginners” and “Stargazing with Binoculars and Telescopes.” He and his wife live in St. George, where he continues to stargaze from his retirement home while serving on the advisory committee for Stellar Vista Observatory.

Poetry Month:

The Insider

BES students celebrate National Poetry Month by using visual aids to present poems to friends, family, and community members.

Poetry Month

Cont'd from page 1

Christina Rossetti, Emily Dickinson, and family members, including one student’s grandmother and another’s

mother. The subjects ranged from goldfish, cats, rats and dinosaurs, to poems about colors, uncertainty around death, and fairy tale characters; from contemplative poems to (most commonly) comedic poems

based on puns and wit.

The presentation was held at the Church pavilion, to the much-deserved applause of family and community members.

Bryce Council:

Wellness Center purchases, council building and fire department security cameras, Canyon2Canyon event brochures, a bid from High Mountain Consulting, SBHC management and oversight of prevention program, a new Acting Superintendent at BCNP, and need for landscaping bids for the cemetery discussed.

Bryce Council Cont'd from page 1

with Logan Reid, the Director of Prevention for the Southwest Behavioral Health Center. SW Prevention expressed concerns about the management of Bryce Valley’s DrugFree Communities (DFC) grant. The action plan requirements of the grant are currently not being adequately met. There was some leeway last year due to the pandemic, but maintaining oversight is an area of improvement. The council approved a motion to take advantage of the resources of SW Prevention and allow them to take over the management and oversight of the prevention program.

It was noted that a new Acting Superintendent was chosen for Bryce Canyon National Park. His name is Jim Ireland, and he will be arriving from Timpanogos Cave National Monument. He should be taking over by the 1st of May. The Main Street Improvement Project is moving forward.

The person in charge of fixing the entrance sign located north of the city on Highway 63 is scheduled to

start work on its replacement this week, but no one has seen him yet.

At the Wellness Center, the machines were recently cleaned and serviced and everything is working fine. The heating system could benefit from strategically located fans. Putting a blower on the ceiling to push rising heat back down was recommended.

Bids on fans are forthcoming.

The new dumbbells have not arrived yet.

The cemetery needs a bid for landscaping. The middle area is suffering from a lack of water. A new landscaping plan that features a more waterwise approach is a possibility.

High School Senior Scholarships are due today (April 15th), by tonight. Not many have been received this year. Council members will judge the applications on May 6th. Awards will be presented on May 15th.

A meeting to discuss town budgets is set for May. To finish the meeting, there was a report on financials: The following checks were written: $97.61 to Bryce Canyon Sinclair to cover the cost of washing cars and fire trucks and for the cost of die-

sel fuel, $6,250.00 for the BV Prevention Coalition evaluation, $1,183.44 to Bryce Canyon Auto Care for John Deere servicing, $664.00 to Jail Ink, $192.00 for laundry, $348.00 to The Garfield and Wayne County Insider for a legal notice, $400.00 for insurance, $141.65 for unemployment, $1686.50 to Upper Limit for gym equipment, $897.50 to Zion Sign for Canyon2Canyon brochures, $21,920 to Ruby’s Inn for city services like snow removal on streets and parking lots, $446.64 for phone and internet, and $105.91 to Best Western/Ruby’s Inn for a lunch meeting with Kaden Figgins.

Bryce Canyon City Town Council meetings take place the 1st and 3rd Thursday of each month.
