KAYSVILLE — If you want to beat City Hall, you enlist consultants who have beaten City Hall.

Especially when they live just next door.

Members of the group known as Layton Citizens are providing free consulting services to a group of Kaysville residents who are trying to place an initiative on the Nov. 5 ballot.
