ings on the school board budget

alton. He cut SIP million off
school board requests for oper-
ating expenses and $3.1 million
of requests for school construc-
ton.

struction. Under provisions of
this setup the bonds must be
paid off in a f5-year period.

Reese to negotiate contract for
I$2.750 with planning consultant
Dorothy A. Muncy to do an in
duStrial land survey of the county
II the upper county planning
commission approves it.

and by the city and had sought
refund of some $4,000 collected
from the city residents to sup
port the county's library system.

weight from overnight parking
Ion county-owned parking lots.
!. A bill to give former Takona

street with the gamble that the
county will assess the. cost
against all property owners.
