If you're one of those people asking: "What has government done for me lately?" then take a few minutes out and visit the facilities. Weed control personnel will identify weeds growing in your back yard and tell you how to get rid of them. Parks people will tell you how to make the most of your lawn and landscaping.If you've ever wondererd why that pothole only seems to grow bigger, the roads department will be there to tell you just how soon it can be fixed. The state of Utah will also be holding a surplus property auction of a number of well-maintained cars and trucks and miscellaneous office equipment.
