Mayor Mills told Chase they have given him a couple of ideas let him think about what was presented, discuss them with his parents and scout leaders then he can make a decision. Stephanie Bryant came before the council to protest concerns in regards to ATV in Mona City. She told the council and those present, 'We watch a lot of kids drive too fast along the road; a week ago, Sunday, our fence was ran into.' There was a second incident which was worse; the sheriff was called and responded right away. Her husband Butch asked if a stop sign could be placed on their street. Micheal Stringer told him he will do that. There is an ongoing concern in regard to ATV's in the city. A lot of the problem is caused by young people driving much too fast for road conditions. Some of the drivers were underage and should not be riding the vehicles at all. Bryant was not only concerned about the young people but she was also concerned about her grandchildren, her family, her pets and her property, thinking there could be a death as a result of the carelessness. Councilmember Jay Mecham told them the best thing to do is call the Sheriff it will be helpful if a license tag or photo description could be available. Mayor Mills said, as councilmember's, they can do nothing in the way of law enforcement to stop the misuse of ATV's. The city can set ordinance but they cannot enforce them that is up to law enforcement. 'Our ordinance and the state ordinances cover the safety and legality issue,' said Mayor Mills. He added the Sheriff said he is going to start enforcing the law on ATV safety throughout all communities in Juab County, they will be writing up the parents of the violators.
