Clearfield Community Theater’s Fall Production |
|
|
|
Friday, 03 September 2010 |
“Seven Brides for Dracula”
The classic horror story “Dracula” takes a comedic twist with Clearfield Community Theater’s fall production of “Seven Brides for Dracula”. Not only vampires, but werewolves abound in this melodrama, featuring songs like “Transylvania Trance”, “Canine Candy Freak”, and “We’re Odd, We’re Odd”.
In this spoof, Dracula takes up residence close to a sanitarium with vampire hunter, Van Helsing, in hot pursuit. A howling wolfman, poisoned chocolates, and non-stop action will keep the whole family howling with laughter.
“Audience participation is encouraged in this melodrama,” shared Alyn Bone, the director. Bone has directed several of Clearfield’s Community Theater productions, including “State Fair”, “Anne of Green Gables”, “Clue”, another audience participation fall production, and most recently performed in the August production “Noises Off”.
“Audience members will have fun booing the villain,” continued Bone, “cheering on the hero, and all together just enjoying the show!”
Performances, which will last approximately one hour, are October 21, 22, 23 and 25, 7:30pm at the Clearfield Community Center Little Theater, 140 E. Center Street. For best seating selection reserve your seats early. Tickets are $6 for adults, $4 for children 12 and under, and $4 for seniors 60 and over. Tickets can be purchased at the Clearfield Community Services Department, 55 S. State Street, or at the door the day of the performance. For questions and to purchase your tickets over the phone contact Clearfield Community Services at (801)525-2790.

Clearfield City Police Department Investing in the Future |
|
|
|
Friday, 27 August 2010 |
 Clearfield City is making a big investment in public safety with the use of several grants recently received by the city.
“The city has lobbied for, and has received a portion of about $625,000 in federal and state grant money which has and will be used to purchase various equipment upgrades and new public safety equipment,” stated Clearfield City Police Chief Greg Krusi. “The grant money received has allowed the department to purchase a T3motion personal transporter, with future plans to purchase 20 new rifle holographic weapon sights for the existing patrol rifles, a digital pole camera system, software providing “hot spot” technology, and Computer-aided Dispatch (CAD) tablets for our officers.”
“Our federal delegation has really come through for Clearfield City in securing these grants,” said City Manager, Chris Hillman. “Senators Hatch and Bennett and Congressman Bishop have worked hard and fought for this money to come back to Utah.”
“Break-ins at park bathrooms, burned playground equipment, vandalized concession stands, and unsightly graffiti are just some of the challenges our city faces. Having this camera system would help us monitor and prosecute any drug, vandalism and graffiti issues,” explained Krusi. “The cameras would be connected to our dispatch center, providing 24-hour surveillance. This would not only act as a deterrent to drug activity, but would also help as a prosecution tool by providing high-resolution imaging to assist with identification.”
In an effort to deter crime, the city is awaiting approval for a $425,000 COPS/Burn grant for the purchase and installation of approximately 12 open space digital cameras, and 32 CAD tablets. This COPS/Burn Grant would award the city $225,000 to purchase the pole camera system, and $200,000 for the hand-held CAD tablets.

Fall Cleanup 2010 |
|
|
|
Friday, 27 August 2010 |
September 30, October 1, 2 and 7, 8, 9
Thursday, Friday and Saturday
Two weekends have been set aside this season for Clearfield City’s annual Fall Cleanup. Clearfield citizens can drop off acceptable items at the lot south of the Public Works Shops located at 497 S. Main. The lot will be open between the hours of 9am to 4pm on the dates noted above (Thursday through Saturday). Residents must be able to unload their own items; city employees will only be on site to monitor activities.
Those taking advantage of this service must present a valid picture I.D. showing proof of Clearfield residency, such as a driver’s license or utility bill.
The city will not be able to accept material that cannot be deposited in the land fill, including:
-tires
-hazardous waste such as used oil, paint, solvents and other chemicals
-electronics such as televisions, microwaves, computers, etc.
-any items with Freon
The city will also not accept on the above dates:
-Household garbage
-Commercial garbage
The city can accept car batteries; however, they must be separated so they can be placed on a pallet. A dumpster will be on site during the Fall Clean-up for disposal of metals. Residents will need to bring the items to the Public Works Shop and unload them into the dumpster. Please separate your green waste from the rest of your delivered waste. Green waste consists of biodegradable materials such as lawn trimmings, leaves, tree branches and limbs not to exceed four feet in length. City employees will not accept material that does not meet these requirements and dumping in containers after hours may be subject to ticketing. You can make arrangements with the city for at-home metal pick-up, as our schedule permits, by calling (801)525-4402.

Mike Stenquist – New Assistant Police Chief |
|
|
|
Friday, 27 August 2010 |
 With Greg Krusi recently appointed as Clearfield City’s new police chief, the vacant Assistant Police Chief position was filled by Mike Stenquist, an officer with Clearfield City for almost 23 years.
Stenquist started as a patrol officer with Clearfield City in 1987, and then moved to Investigations after about five years. He moved back and forth from patrol to investigations while moving up the ranks from corporal, sergeant, patrol lieutenant, to commander in the detective unit.
There are several things that Stenquist hopes to accomplish as the new assistant police chief.
“We have a very ethical police department and I want to maintain that level of integrity. I’d like to establish a physical fitness program for our officers, and ensure that they are equipped with the best crime-fighting tools and public safety equipment possible,” Stenquist shared. “One of my goals for the department is to improve community policing by having our officers more involved with the citizens, strengthening the bonds of communication.”
