Page 4 THE HERALD, Provo, Utah, Wednesday, April 30, 1988 Prove OKs Grievance Ordinance Area Youth Prepare For Livestock Show At Fair Grounds the grievance process will work given the opportunity." The new ordinance will protect the employees and the city, as well as making it possible for the appeals board to work effectively, he said. "If I felt the employees were being taken advantage of. I would be the first person to your office," Herbert said. "I feel we have a workable ordinance." Shari Holweg. an AFSCME Lo- this point in time, the future of our jobs in residential garbage is not there," he said.

Tom Morris of Frovo, said as a meter reader he sees the hard work sanitation crews do. "They are a very good team. They work well together." In addition, he said, the crews are safety-conscious and present a good image for the city. If the city breaks up the team by moving to one-man residential gar- "I feel at this point the grievance process will work given the opportunity." Terry Herbert President, Provo Employees Assn. said the new workload for residential sanitation workers is one 'any reasonably able-bodied person should be able to handle.

"The workloads our men are asked to handle now are way below the norm for the Wasatch Front," he said. In Salt Lake City, sanitation workers pick up 1.8 tons of garbage per hour while Provo workers are asked to pick up 14 tons per hour. "I don't think that's unreasonable," he said. In addition, Provo workers are asked to cover 520 houses per day compared vith Salt Lake's 650. Holweg, however, said she talked to Orem's sanitation supervisor who told her that city is changing its sanitation program because the present system similar to the one Provo is moving toward does not work.

In addition, Serrano said, from his experience with Provo's residential garbage collection he feels Provo workers will have to pick up at least two tons of garbage per hour. During the discussion, council members told the employees if the new ordinance does not meet their needs after it has been in force a while, the council will consider making some changes. But, "we've got to get something in place to deal with this and see if it works," said Cot-trell. "No ordinance is set in concrete." In addition, council member Ronald Last said if any large group of employees has a problem, those people "have the ear of this body. I feel this ordinance is more for individuals." He said if the one-man trucks become a real burden for employees, those people can go to the council for relief.

By LEANN MOODY Spanish Fork Correspondent SPANISH FORK Some 300 entries in market animals divisions will weigh in Wednesday afternoons as the annual Utah State Junior Livestock Show begins. The livestock show officially opens to the public Thursday morning with entries in breeding beef, hogs and lambs as well as market animals. The livestock show runs until Saturday with activities including a calf scramble and tractor driving contest. Entries for this year's show are up from last year showing a slight increase in market beef and hogs with a larger increase in market lambs. Animals will be received and weighed in at the fairgrounds from 3-5 p.m.

Wednesday. There will be an exhibitors meeting following. Fitting and showmanship contests for all different species will follow beginning with market hogs at 6:30 p.m. followed by beef at 7:30 and sheep at 8:30. Thursday events begin early with the judging of all animals.

Exhibits open to the public at 8 a.m. Friday is Governor's Days and will feature 4-H and FFA livestock judging contests at 8:30 a.m. A special luncheon at noon will feature a speaker from the governor's office. This will be followed by a tractor driving contest at 1:30 p.m. The annual calf scramble will be at 3 p.m.

Some 63 youths entered the event from which 22 names will be drawn to compete for the calves. Youth winning calves will return the following yecr to exhibit the animals. Friday evening concludes with an exhibitors jamboree sponsored by the Kiwanis Club. Saturday will be the final day with the sale of all market stock beginning at 10 a.m. Market beef will be sold first followed by hogs and lambs.

Prior to the junior livestock show the Utah State Holstein Show will be at the Fairgrounds and is free to the public. The holstein show Monday and Tuesday is in conjunction with 4-H and FFA will dairy judging contests. Stock show president for this year is Howard Creer Creer said "the show this year looks to be one of the best ever." "The livestock show is a great tradition for Spanish Fork and we would like to invite every one to come and join us," said Creer. By LISA MOTE Herald Staff Writer After months of debate, work and changes, the Provo City Council finally passed a new employee grievance ordinance Tuesday night. At the meeting, Provo City employees were divided on the ordinance with one group saying the ordinance addresses the needs of the city workers, while others said it still needs work.

Leaders of the employees association, which has about 270 members among the city's 400 full-time employees, said they feel the ordinance is a viable one. But members of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Local 1004, with more than 100 members among the employees, said they feel the ordinance still needs work. Robert Orehoski, attorney for AFSCME Local 1004, said negotiations between employees and management in most companies include hours, wages and employee working conditions. "This ordinance does not include working conditions," he said. While he complimented the council and administration for attempting to work with employees on the ordinance, he asked that working conditions be included as a grievable item "as a sign of good faith." member Anagene Cot-trell, however, said by making working conditions grievable the council would "give administrative powers to an appeals board.

We can't do that." i Terry Herbert, president of the employees association and a member of the grievance appeals board, said, "I feel at this point bage collection trucks, the employees will be able to continue for a while. But. "when you put one man doing a two-man job. you sacrifice something," Morris said. Safety might be sacrificed when there is no back-up man on the truck.

Accidents like the one that killed a 6-year-old child in Orem can happen, he said. "With the extra workload, it would be to everyone's interest for those men to know there's an avenue they can take to get help instead of just keeping their problems to themselves," he said. By including workload as a grievable item, the council would open that avenue. Chet Waggoner, Provo's chief administrative officer, however, PM Report Peace Marchers Take Break near Beaver Orem City to Participate in Medicare Newly signed legislation by President Ronald Reagan prompted action by the Orem City Council Tuesday. All new employers and employees of Orem City are required to participate in the Medicare program.

Approval by the city counil means all employees hired after March 31, 1986 will contribute 1.45 percent of their payroll to Medicare. The city contribution for permanent employees will be made by an equal reduction in the city's participation in the current social security replacement program. Employee contributions will be made as payroll deductions. Orem to Donate to Viet Memorial Orem City will donate $600 to a Vietnam Memorial thanks to the encouragement of an Orem Boy Scout. Eric Mackay made the request for a donation as part of his Eagle Scout service project.

The memorial will be erected in a location chosen by Governor Norman Bangerter, and is to honor those from the State of Utah who are listed as missing in action or who died while serving in Vietnam military action. The city approved $100 donations for each of the six individuals from Orem who died in Vietnam. cal 1004 board member, however, said she feels the council is taking the long route by passing an ordinance that will' have to be changed. "I hope not too many people are put under undue stress before this comes back to the council." she said. Some sanitation workers were also at the council meeting asking that working conditions be grievable.

The workers have been asking for the addition since they were told the city is moving to one-man, side-loading trucks for residential garbage collection. Max Serrano, a residential sanitation worker, said if working conditions are not included, sanitation employees will suffer. "We're up against the wall. At putee who marches on one leg, says he marched in Selma, Ala. with Martin Luther King.

He says he is arranging to have King's son join the march when it reaches Colorado next week. Four Utahns began the march in California, Ginny Dean, Shelley White, Dane Wilkins and Stephen Randall, all of Salt Lake City. All said they plan to arrive in Washington D.C. with other marchers. Never so far in their journey have marchers been so disjointed as this week.

Fifty other marchers broke from the group Tuesday before it reached the camp near Beaver and were walking cross-country toward Cisco. The main group agreed to be bused to Cisco because of the danger of a cattle disease that also affects humans and is known to be present in the area. Mark Nairne of Connecticut, a spokesman for the Peace March, said this march to Cisco is unsanctioned by the main group, which will be first transported by vehicles from near Cove Fort to Salt Lake City Saturday and then be transported by vehicle to Cisco Sunday to resume the march. "It's been a march with its tragedies and its triumphs," said Nairne. Argyle He was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
