Many Thanks to all of the Bicknell International Film Festival (BIFF) Supporters. BIFFSTOCK 2019 was a Rousing Success! There were eighteen BIFF volunteers who spent time before, during, and after events to assure that posters were hung, folks were checked in and given program and tickets, the lobby was decorated, t-shirts were ready to sell, laughs were many, rooms were straightened, and that prizes landed in the right
hands. The Bicknell Theater and the Brill family were, as always, wonderful to work with. Great hosts! Finally, our special guests were terrific! Bobbi and Nick Ercoline, the iconic couple on the Woodstock album cover, ventured out from New York. Nick and Bobbi are still to-
gether after 50 years. They had hundreds of photos taken, shared their experiences, and were always approachable and ready to chat. Stay tuned! We plan to announce the 2020 BIFF theme in February. Far out! Don Gomes BIFF Handler-in-Charge

Donations are always accepted at any time. Be part of the local historical preservation efforts and help maintain these pioneer-era buildings. —Mauna Loa Camp, Daughters of Utah Pioneers
Medicaid Expansion
"We passed a funding mechanism with the ballot initiative," she said. "There is a small increase in the non-food sales tax, and so there's more than enough through that sales tax to cover the projected enrollees." Stanford said the next step for her group is a rally Thursday afternoon at the Capitol Rotunda in Salt Lake City. "We were in the middle of the public comment period of the waiver when it was rejected," she said. "We're sitting on 6,000 public comments - and so, we're going to display these messages from Utahns that are calling for full expansion." According to House Bill 96, legislators must now decide whether to accept the full expansion or call a special session to come up with a different plan. Details of HB 96 are online at le.utah.gov. —Mark Richardson, Utah News Connection

The co-chairs have begun working with legislative staff to review the comments, ideas, feedback and suggestions as well as layout a blueprint for phase two, the study phase, of the task force. During the study phase, the task force will verify the challenge, review possible options and solutions and analyze opportunities to address the structural imbalance our state budget is facing. The public is welcome to attend or live stream the study meetings that will be held at the Capitol. The first meeting of the study phase is tentatively scheduled for the third week in August. Additional details will be made available in the coming weeks.

fallback plan, the full extension is more than solvent," she said. "They're paying three times more now. There's no need for that; there's no need to delay. They should move forward with pursuing the full expansion." Under the Affordable Care Act, states can expand Medicaid with the federal government picking up most of the tab. But after Utah legislators failed to approve an expansion, a coalition of health-care advocates gathered signatures and put the expansion on last year's ballot. However, lawmakers set aside the referendum and passed House Bill 96, a limited expansion that would have covered 90,000 people. Despite lawmakers' protests that a full expansion would obligate the state for future costs, Stanford said the referendum contains a fiscally responsible way to pay for it.

SALT LAKE CITY This summer, the Tax Restructuring and Equalization Task Force traveled across the state to eight different locations on a listening tour to hear directly from Utahns about the state’s tax code. Hundreds of individuals made significant efforts to attend, engage, comment and share their insights, ideas and perspectives with members of the task force. "We have witnessed individuals working together to find solutions that will meet the unique needs of each city, county, person and organization," said Sen. Lyle Hillyard, co-chair of the Tax Restructuring and Equalization Task Force. "This is another prime example of the ‘Utah way.’ Everyone's participation is playing a critical role in this process. The concerns and ideas shared will help us explore solutions and ensure Utah remains the best-managed state in the nation." An estimated 1,500 people attended the town halls and the task force received approximately • 198 comments submitted online thus far • 150 comment cards were filled out at the town halls • 200 provided public input at the town halls “This is an incredibly complex topic and one of the most challenging issues the state has undertaken,” said Rep. Francis Gibson, co-chair of the Tax Restructuring and Equalization Task Force. “But time and time again, Utahns have shown a willingness to face weighty issues head on. This is no exception. Together, we’ll create the best policy.” Many individuals assisted with the town halls to make it a success, and their support is much appreciated. The co-chairs of the task force recognize and thank Pat Jones, Greg Bell and Greg Todd for moderating the town halls and fostering a respectful dialogue; law enforcement officers for helping ensure the town halls remained peaceful and courteous; the public for providing their

Three Reasons to Come Support 4-H and FFA Youth Some people claim that raising livestock through FFA and 4-H hardens the hearts of our industry’s young people. Yet, if you have been involved in these organizations, you know it does just the opposite. Raising livestock awakens the soul and gives young people a purpose. It gives them a reason to wake up each day and be a caretaker and teaches the proper way to care for animals to ultimately deliver a safe product to the marketplace. Whether you agree or not with the concept of raising livestock for food, it has been a common practice in our culture for centuries and a practice that is sure to continue. And the truth is, the livestock raised by youth live the very best life on earth, and our young people learn endless life lessons along that journey. Young people take so much pride in caring for their animals, and they make great stewards of livestock for many reasons. 1. Their care comes from their hearts, not from their pockets. While raising livestock teaches young people to be financially responsible and work hard for what they will eventually earn, the quality of care along the way stems directly from the heart. Kids make a commitment to their animals for months ahead of time and take on lots of responsibility each day. The time they spend with their animals before the fair is filled with washing them daily, brushing and working their hair or conditioning their skin, exercising, showmanship practice and providing superior nutrition both morning and night. When you spend that much time with an animal, a special bond quickly forms, and that bond propels young people to give the best life possible to their livestock. If our animals are going to be used for production agriculture, it makes sense to put them in the care of young people who spend time with them each day and build a relationship with them from the moment they bring them home and give them a name. 2. It’s more than just an endpoint, it’s an experience. Youth involved in raising livestock through programs like 4-H and FFA are interested in more than just selling their animal at the county or state fair. Most young people involved in showing livestock are also involved in other activities within 4-H and FFA and are interested in becoming well-rounded adults and leaders. Showing livestock is just one project area they might participate in; however, they might also get involved in public speaking, livestock judging, photography, veterinary science and other life skill projects that will enhance their education and develop their leadership skills. Through showing livestock, they are choosing to get a first-hand look at responsibility and what it takes to care for another living thing. They grow to understand the importance and value of hard work and learn that nothing is attainable without setting goals and implementing efforts to get there. They work to learn more about agriculture advocacy through developmental programs, which challenges them to seek out the best production practices to utilize when raising their stock. There is a lot more that goes into a livestock project than what goes in and out of the animal’s feed pan to get them to an endpoint. Kids not only make a commitment to an animal, but they make a commitment to themselves and typically to their club and community toward learning better life skills. 3. Young people who raise livestock today become the leaders of tomorrow. Chances are a large percentage of the young people who raise and show livestock will land a career that impacts the agriculture industry. By choosing to raise livestock at a young age, youth learn the true value of livestock and through daily care, they develop a personal relationship with them. They grow an appreciation for the lessons livestock teach them, and these values, like responsibility, stewardship and work ethic, stay with them for the rest of their professional life. With the knowledge they learn about caring for animals and the memories they hold from their personal experiences; these young people go on to be industry leaders in the animal production industry. They place emphasis on caring for each animal and work to research and implement the best care practices and the most relevant nutritional programs to give animals the best life possible. Teaching youth about the purpose of livestock animals is not a cruel attempt to harden their hearts and squash their feelings, it is merely a reality of agriculture education. We ask extraordinary things of our animals each day – it takes extraordinary individuals to reciprocate the type of care our animals deserve. There is no question that the youth of our industry have the biggest hearts and helpful hands to deliver such care. —Jessica Judge

Proposed Fee
sue is the volunteer situation. Over the years, volunteers have sometimes received as much as $10 per call or training session! For this they give their time, often taking them from their paying jobs and they risk their lives to save you and your property. Add to that the fact that many volunteers are aging and new younger recruits are not joining at a rate to match attrition of older members retiring due to the increasing demands of training, certification and general non-response duties. It has become apparent that the paperwork, command and management aspects of running a department with 6 stations, 20 apparatus and 60 people, is beyond the ability of a fully volunteer force. Volunteers need and deserve some compensation and they need an effective Chief to keep things organized, safe and moving forward. Last year, the District hired a part-time Chief. Unfortunately, due to several factors beyond District control, he left the position and no one has replaced. The (unpaid) District Board members have
assumed management duties and sometimes command of emergency scenes. Having a permanent Chief is key to building effective, stable fire and haz mat services in Wayne County and key to preventing significant insurance cost increases. The Fire District is considering a solution to help solve the financial shortfalls by imposing a fee of $5 per month per parcel in the County, as is similarly charged for trash. The District is accepting public comments on the proposal in writing or via email to: Ryan Torgerson, District Treasurer, Ryan@wayne.utah. gov or Wayne County Fire District, PO Box 189, Loa, Utah 84747. A Public Hearing was scheduled for 7pm on August 6th at the Lyman station, to present facts and get comments. Details will be announced soon in The Insider and at https://www.utah.gov/ pmn/index.html. Fire District personnel will be on hand during the County Fair to take comments and answer questions. —Wayne County Fire District
due to overpopulation will improve rangeland conditions, including leaving more of the increasingly scarce water and forage for the horses that remain. Addressing the overpopulation will also help reduce the spread of wild horses into surrounding lands which further damage rangeland resources and public and private property. Animals removed during future gathers from the range will be made available for adoption or sale through Bureau of Land Management adoption or sales programs. Decisions from both the Dixie National Forest and Bureau of Land Management place limitations on sales. Horses not adopted, sold or moved to
holding will be released back to the North Hills Wild Horse Territory after receiving fertility control, where appropriate, to slow population growth.

bor for training, emergency response, planning, management and maintenance. Under this scheme, funding has always fallen short and so the backlog of needs has grown. Much of the equipment in the County is outdated and does not meet national or OSHA standards. When you consider that each of the 60 firefighters on district rolls needs Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) that costs about $2500 per set and that one Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) costs about $6,000 and a single new fire engine, such as Loa’s, is likely to cost $500,000 or more, and a new fire station to replace the inadequate Torrey station is likely to cost close to $900,000, you can see that the annual base revenue of $125,000 from District 3 does not begin to meet the Capital needs that are only growing. Maintenance, repairs, utilities and small equipment quickly eat up the rest of available funding. An even more serious isWild Horses

Do-It-Yourself Legal Forms
t H e
by JEFFERy J. MCkEnna Having been an estate planning attorney for over twenty years, I have had many people ask, “Can I do my own estate planning documents?” I don’t hesitate with my answer. “Yes, definitely.” And then I add, “You can also deliver your own babies, many people do, or build your own house or repair your own cars.” My point is that we generally go to others who are much more trained and experienced than us to perform certain services. An avalanche of do-ityourself legal forms has descended upon us lately, spun out by people anxious to make money “helping” you. The fact is that such forms can be extremely risky to use. The most popular forms are "end-of-life documents" – wills, estate planning forms, living wills, or "delegation documents," giving certain tasks to another person when you're incapacitated or otherwise unavailable. These include powers of attorney (medical and financial) and naming a guardian for minor children. There are some advantages to using do-it-yourself forms. You can save legal fees and can sometimes handle a matter faster than a lawyer would. Forms are usually in plain English rather than "legalese." They can be customized by striking out irrelevant information or adding
extra clauses. However, there are many more disadvantages. The biggest pitfall is a false sense of security. It looks so simple – just pick a form, gather information and fill in the blanks. But few forms come with enough explanation to assure the user that he or she is using the instrument in the right way. And many "legal forms" are contracts, with power to bind you to a commitment you may not want. Sometimes it is just plain foolhardy to use do-it-yourself Estate Planning kits. It could cost far more to unravel the problems they can cause than it would to hire a good Estate Planning attorney in the first place. One size does not fit all, particularly in regard to Estate Planning. Another reason to look beyond the “do-it-yourself” forms is if you own enough assets to have estate or income tax issues. Few middle class clients know whether they need tax planning or not because they don't know what property is counted or how to value it. Examine tax issues in detail, or consult an Estate Planning attorney who can look at your individual situation and let you know your individual issues. Legal forms should make your life easier, not harder. Use them appropriately, and don't let your quest to avoid legal fees cloud your judgment. If you've taken a good

If you're feeling lonely, and you're not averse to fur, Go and get you a kitty, to sit on your lap and purr. But be advised it's not your choice when kitty gets her pettin'. Kitty's going to name the time, and don't you be forgettin'. Cats are pleasant company, all playful, loyal and steady, But they will set the schedule. You do stuff when they're ready. They're always there to please you, especially when you don't need 'em. Just change their sandbox now and then, and don't forget to feed 'em. They mostly snooze the whole day long. Sometimes you'd think they're dead, And then they crash around all night, after you've gone to bed Don't look to cats for manners, 'cause cats just plain ain't got 'em. I swear it's the truth that it ain't couth to sit and lick your bottom. Anyway, a cat is fine if you need company. I'm kind of an expert. Me and the wife got three. Like Ray's poems?

Future
In conversation, my adult son Larry expressed concern about my future. Confident in my children's love, I announced, "I'm not going to worry about old age. I have four kids, and I'll just spend three months with each one." "Yes," Larry replied, "but what are you going to do the second year?"
Paint
Paints were a very precious quantity in the good old days, and British merchants could make a small fortune supplying paints to the colonies. One company sent a clipper ship full of red paint across the ocean. It had the very bad luck to collide with another ship full of blue paint. As a result of this disaster, both crews were ... marooned.
Weight Loss
"'Darn!" the man said to his friend while weighing himself at the local drug store scale. "I started on a new diet but the scale says I'm heavier than I was before." Turning to his friend, he said, "Here, hold my jacket." The scale still indicated that he had not lost any weight. "OK," he said to his friend. "Hold my Twinkies."

O Bituaries Gene K. Muir 1944 - 2019
VENICE - Our beloved father, grandfather, brother and friend, Gene Keith Muir, passed away peacefully on August 4, 2019 at the age of 75. He was born July 23, 1944 in Richfield, a son of Leon David and Dora Hurdsman Muir. Gene graduated from Richfield High School. Throughout his teen years, he logged the Beaver and Cedar Mountains with his Dad, Uncle and brothers, before venturing out on his own. He married the love of his life, LuWanna Pratt, from Escalante, Utah, June 6, 1968 in McGill, Nevada, after being introduced by his sister, Beverly. LuWanna passed away February 24, 2010. Gene took on several jobs in the community, working for local farmers and trapping. He worked in maintenance for the Sevier School District until he retired after 29 years. Gene was an amazing mountain man, avid hunter, fisherman and trapper. He had a great love for the outdoors and loved spending time in the mountains. His favorite places were the Four Corners, Henry Mountains and the Bears Ears. He was a master of trapping and had a unique passion for it. He loved to share his knowledge and tips and tricks to get the best fur. He would tell stories about his many adventures to anyone who would listen. Oh the stories he had!!! Gene is survived by his sons: Kenneth Leon Muir of Cedar City; Travis James and Jaque Muir of Richfield; William Gene Muir of Draper; grandsons: Devin and Chaylee Muir of Richfield, Brennan Muir of Richfield; Christopher Muir and Samuel Muir, both of Gunnison; brothers: Wayne and Jorja Muir, Steven and Connie Muir, all of Nevada; and his sister, Beverly Pond of Venice. He is preceded in death by his wife, LuWanna Pratt Muir; parents: Leon David Muir and Dora Hurdsman Muir; brotherin-law: Robert Pond; nephew, David Muir and Niece, Nancy Muir and other close family and friends whom he dearly loved. The family would like to thank Gary Cowley, Sheldon Buchanan, Von Calister, Karen Abbott and DeDe Hyde, as well as the nurses at Stonehenge and the Richfield Care Center for all of their love and support. Funeral services will be held on Friday, August 9, 2019 at 12 Noon in the Venice LDS Ward Chapel, where friends may call for viewing Friday morning from 10:00 to 11:30 prior to the services.

FYI PanguItch
by Mack Oetting ~ mackoetting @gmail.com The old story about the 24th of July being when we celebrate the last day of summer in Panguitch is really holding true this year. The monsoons started in on the 26th, and haven’t they been grand? We are staying cool, while everywhere around us is cooking. Last Thursday, we went over to Cedar, 94 degrees, next day in Richfield it was 96. I’ll take the cool 70s any day. Unlike up north in the SLC area, our evenings cool off, where their evenings seem to stay in the high 70s. If the rain that we are getting is working as well for the farmers as it is on my lawn, I think they will get three crops this year. The only bad thing about the rain is when you are driving. You really have to slow down in Garfield Co. because of the truck ruts will cause you to hydroplane. If you go north, they have just paved that road clear through Piute Co. and going south, make it to Kane Co. and you are safe. Summer is two-thirds over with, but there is still plenty of fun events to come.
This Saturday is the start of the Garfield County Fair, leading off with the Mountain Man contests. Come on out and try your skills. On Wednesday, it is time to register your treasures and art work, then check your Garfield Co. program for all of the fun events that will be happening in the next three days. Up next, is the ATV Rally, and this year there are over 280 signed up for four days of fun. I understand, now till the Rally starts, the volunteer ride guides will be going on rides to all 16 trail sites. So there is still plenty of time to sign up for the rides, and the cut off is at 400. These rides are designed for all levels of riders, from beginners to advanced skills. I missed the Garfield County Hospital’s annual golf tournament, which was played last Friday. As bad as I play , I think I did them a favor not being there. However, the Hospital’s Foundation dinner will be at the end of the month, on the 29th. This is always a fun evening, so give
the Hospital a call for tickets. The Senate finally agreed to more help for 9/11 survivors. Some 32,000 first responders have been diagnose with respiratory and digestive tract illnesses caused by toxic dust at Ground Zero. Nine thousand have developed cancer and more than 1,000 have died of causes linked to their 9/11 efforts. The legislation, which passed the house this month, extends funding to 2092 providing $10.2 billion to pay claims for the next 10 years. The vote was 97 to 2, with Republican Senators Rand Paul of Kentucky and Mike Lee from Utah. They cited spending concerns. Also, Congress has passed a budget and raised the National Debt ceiling of $22 trillion for the next two years, and the President signed it. Our two Senators, Romney and Lee, also voted against it, as did both of our junior Congressmen. All were concerned about the Countries debt. I wonder where they were when they voted for the trillion dollar tax cut for the 1%ers.
Last week, our gas clothes dryer quit working , and I gave Kerry Dalton from Circleville a call. He said that he did repair work on dryers. While in Cedar City, I thought I would check out what a new dryer would cost. Ours is about 10 years old, which we paid about $500.00 for. With the President’s new tariffs and, over the years, the cost is now up to $800.00. Fortunately, Kerry did his magic on ours, and it is now as good as new. If you have problems with any of your appliances, give Kerry a call at 616-2103. He is very reasonable, and he has fixed quite a few of our appliances. School will be starting on August 20th, and that means the sport seasons will be starting up soon with volleyball, cross country and wrestling. I can’t wait. I see that a company is coming out with a bullet proof back pack for kids. What has our country come to? Mack O.
News from Wayne County
Mornings in Wayne County, Canadien Geese Invade, and Bicknell Heritage Park by adus doRsEy ii
WAYNE COUNTY - If you really want to see for yourself how Wayne County works, set your alarm and coffee pot timer for six o’clock a.m., do your daily set of jumping jacks and deep breathing exercises, and then hit the highway. It doesn’t matter which way you decide to go, in fact pick a different route each day for a week. What you will encounter in the wee hours are the working folks that keep the wheels of Wayne County rotating forward. More days than not, Bruce Johnson, Wayne County Sanitation Supervisor, is on the Big Rocks road and has a big black container loaded on his truck headed to parts unknown. His boys are behind the wheel of the garbage trucks, stopped on the side of the road, with a trashcan flipped up in the air. Also up early, the Wayne County Road Department. Jackson’s Excavation, BBC and H&R are moving heavy
equipment or are someplace digging in the dirt. In trucks as colorful as any neighborhood ice cream van, a fleet of South Central Communications outfits are scurrying around the back streets of Bicknell town like ants on a Green River watermelon rind, installing all of the World Wide Web’s content under the ground. By seven a.m. the Garkane Power boys have had their morning safety meeting and are already wearing their hard hats and climbing spikes and are shinnying up power poles like they are coconut trees with some sort of a prize at the top. And let us not forget the women, as there are just as many of them headed who knows where to do every kind of job there is. By dawn, the local cowboys have long since milked the cows, slopped the hogs and fed the chickens before the sun came up and have their trusty steeds saddled and are out on the range punching
doggies. In many cases, these working folk are the unsung heroes that keep the Wayne County motor lubed and running on all cylinders. They are the teachers that guide and influence our children. They are the ones that stock the shelves at Royal’s. They cut our hair so we look good at Sunday School, and in some instances we are happy to have them poke and prod us and clean our teeth at the Wayne County clinic. Then, of course, there are the volunteers; Search and Rescue, the awesome officers of the law that enjoy keeping us lead foots within the posted speed limit, the firefighters and EMT’s that are on constant call. These are the individuals we should stand and salute at every given opportunity. And of course, as sure as the sun rises from the desert in Hanksville and beds down into Fish Lake, there will always be the chronic complainers among us; those smarter than thou individuals that can’t seem to see the beauty of the timbered forest for all those damn dead trees. So make no mistake about it, and don’t believe everything you read, just like rumors that run rampant, often times second hand information can get seriously misinterpreted. The juicer the berry, the sharper the thorns…. Speaking of early morning encounters, a gaggle of Canadian Geese has been camped out at Andy Taft’s place, fertilizing his Bicknell Bottom field for over a week. At first sight, it seemed that Bradio was trying to herd them toward the river but, upon closer investigation, it was clear the geese were the ones doing the actual herding. A little further up the road at the Sunglow campground pullout, about fifteen Wayne High Badger Cross Country runners were stretching out their loins and grabbing their Nike tennis shoes prepping for a morning run, a run farther than some people in Wayne County will drive in a day. For two days and nights last week, it rained cats and dogs and every one of them, along with all of their furry four legged friends, began to
line up two by two in Royals parking lot waiting for the bearded Noah and his 50 X 350 cubit wooden arc to arrive. The snap and pop of lightning on Thousand Lake and Boulder was reminiscent of some kind of Netflix SciFi movie, and if Mel Gibson had arrived dressed in his end of the world Road Warrior outfit and holding a bolt of lightning in his right hand, no one would have been all that surprised. And if that wasn’t enough, last Sunday there was a guy standing on the side of the road near the Teasdale turn off naked from the waist up. He looked dazed and confused, probably a lost BIFFer that didn’t receive the memo that all the other BIFFer’s had gathered at the Chuckwagon in Torrey on Friday night. With any luck, someone hauling a load of hay graciously gave him a ride to the county line. If you haven’t heard the word, Mayor Noreen Johnson and the town folks in Bicknell have plans firmly in place for a Heritage Park to be built on the donated triangle piece of property near the old Elwood Morrell barn. In recent days, town man Scott Woolsey has been seen scratching his chin preparing himself to put his creativity and mad landscaping skills into motion. At the recent July 24th Bickenll town Pioneer Day celebration, the Heritage Park Project announcement was made, and without hesitation some folks in the crowd reached in to their deep pockets and pulled out their dusty wallets to make generous donations, which if you find yourself willing to do so, the funds will be put to good use. I don’t know about anyone else in the Torrey area, but with all the recent rains and the advent of the rows and rows of hemp now sprouting up on the dump road. I am fairly proof positive that hemp, or its close cousin, has been growing un-checked on my Torrey half acre since the hippie era of the seventies… I could be wrong, but I am beginning to wonder if I need to apply to the County for a conditional use permit? Just asking.

Get Educated: Understanding Federal Student Loan Repayment Paying Loans Back You begin repaying your student loans after graduation, drop below full-time enrollment or leave school. The federal government assigns a loan servicer to handle the billing, repayment plans, consolidations, and other services on your student loans. The loan servicer will contact you regarding a repayment plan. Below is some basic information on loan repayment options (“Repayment Plans.” n.d.). Standard Repayment Plan • Fixed payment amount • Payoff between 10-30 years Graduated Repayment Plan • Payments start off low and increase usually every 2 year • Payoff between 10-30 years Extended Repayment Plan • Payments are fixed or graduated (start off low and increase) • Payoff within 25 years Revised Pay As You Earn Repayment Plan • Monthly payments based on 10% of discretionary income
• Recalculated each year based on income and family size • Any outstanding balance is forgiven if the loan isn’t paid in full after 20 years • You may have to pay income tax on any amount that is forgiven Pay As Your Earn Repayment Plan • Monthly payments based on 10% of discretionary income but never more that you would pay under the 10 year Standard Repayment Plan • Recalculated each year based on income and family size • Any outstanding balance on the loan is forgiven if the loan isn’t paid in full after 20 year • You may have to pay income tax on any amount that is forgiven Income Based Repayment Plan • Monthly payments will be either 10% or 15% of your discretionary income but never more that you would pay under the 10 year Standard Repayment Plan and recalculated each year based on income and family size • Any outstanding balance on the loan is forgiven if the loan isn’t paid in full
after 20 or 25 years • You may have to pay income tax on any amount that is forgiven Income Contingent Repayment Plan • Monthly payments will be the lesser of 20% of discretionary income or the amount you would pay on a repayment plan with a fixed payment over 12 years and recalculated each year based on income • Any outstanding balance on the loan will be forgiven if the loan isn’t paid in full after 25 years • You may have to pay income tax on any amount that is forgiven Income Sensitive Repayment Plan • Monthly payment is based on your annual income with payoff within 15 years Having Trouble Paying Your Loans? Sometimes circumstances make it difficult to make payments on your student loans. If you find you’re having problems making loan payments you may need to change your repayment plan to give you lower payments and a longer repayment period. You may also qualify for a deferment or forbearance, which allows you to temporarily stop making payments
Landlord Duties In the era of “side gigs” and working more than one job, rental properties are more popular than ever. even though they have always been passive income generators for many decades. If you are considering becoming a landlord or already own rental properties, you need to understand your obligations to tenants. Landlords must keep the property “habitable.” Under Utah Code § 57-223, every property must have electric, heating, plumbing, and hot and cold water and be fit for human habitation as defined with any local ordinances and the rules of the local board of health. Landlords are required to keep the property in a sanitary and safe condition and explicitly (in writing) specify the landlord and tenant duties for upkeep of the property. Remember, when in doubt, write it down. Landlords must allow a walkthrough prior to any lease agreement. Tenants are not required to walk-through, but they must be given the opportunity. Landlords need to provide prospective tenants with a written inventory of the condition of the property. I recommend landlords take pictures of the property prior to renting the property and each time the property is rented. Pictures prevent miscommunication between landlord and tenant (and possibly the court) of what is “normal wear and tear” compared to actual destruction of a property. Tenants can request (and pay for) a change of
locks if they are a victim of domestic violence, stalking, sexual offenses, or burglary. And landlords must comply. Tenants must supply landlords with a police report or protective order and pay for either the new locks or rekeying the locks. Tenants can also terminate their lease for the property if the tenant pays 45 days of rent and complies with Utah Code § 57-22-5.1.

or reduce your monthly payment for a period. Your loan servicer will work with you on the terms and conditions of a deferment or forbearance (“Deferment and Forbearance,” n.d.). Loan Forgiveness You are obligated to repay any student loan money you accept; however, there are certain circumstances that allow for loan forgiveness, cancellation, or discharge. Types of circumstances include death, permanent disability, Public Service Loan Forgiveness, Teacher Loan Forgiveness, school closing, and others. Each type has very specific requirements. Your loan servicer can assist you with questions about qualifications for loan forgiveness, cancellation, or discharge (“Forgiveness,” n.d.). In addition, if you are specifically looking at the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2018 made changes to these programs. Check with your loan servicer for the most up-todate information about these program (“Public Service,” n.d.). Consequences of Default Missing even one payment on your loans can lead to big problems. If you don’t make payments, your loans are considered delinquent and will remain that way until you pay the past due amount or make other arrangements with your loan servicer. Your loan will go into default if it remains delinquent. The following are consequences of delinquency and default (“Understanding Delinquency,” n.d.): • Your entire loan balance with interest is due immediately • Lose the chance to get a deferment or forbearance • You are not able to get additional federal student loans • Lowered credit score and a negative credit reporting • Your wages could be garnished to collect what you owe • Your tax returns could be applied to the repayment of the loan • You could be charged additional fees • Your school might hold your transcripts Final Thoughts on Federal Student Loans If federal student loans are the right decision for you, be sure to recognize the commitment you make when accepting student loans. Educate yourself about loan amounts, interest rates, terms of repayment and other stipulations so you can repay the loans in full. Remember to be smart about loans and only take out the amount you need to pay for schooling. This will ensure you protect your financial future beyond college.

weather conditions. Monsoonal storms can bring heavy rains and winds, which could make water navigation difficult and result in flash floods in the slot canyons. In addition, intense monsoonal storms can wash debris into Lake Powell from surrounding plateaus and mountains. This debris may contain harmful bacteria from livestock and wildlife waste. These conditions may be especially prevalent in headwater areas of the many canyons along the lake. The National Park Service at Glen Canyon National Recreation Area is encouraging visitors to avoid drinking, swimming or recreating in waters that contains large amounts of floating debris or algae, especially at the head-
waters of the numerous canyons. Anytime you do recreational activities (swimming, water skiing, kayaking, etc.) on the beaches or in the waters of Lake Powell, you are strongly encouraged to follow basic hygiene practices: 1. Do not ingest the water. 2. Wash your hands before eating and touching your eyes or mouth. 3. Shower with soap after participating in any water activities. 4. Wash your hands after handling fish, gathering up your water gear and toys, changing out of your swimming suit, etc. 5. Do not enter the water if you have open sores or cuts. The park wishes all visitors a safe and enjoyable summer. —National Park Service
