Legislature Muy Consider
Town Board Term

Columbus County's represent
alive to the n {. House Of Re
representatives., w. F. Bill
Floyd. said this week that stag
gercd town board terms might
be considered for action in tbs
current session OF the General
Assembly.
l. was one ot three measures
that Floyd sand would be con-
SIccrcd.
one of III, measures asks 70:
some form of protection for
county peace officers who are
injured in the line of duty. The
wounding of Deputy Sheriff w.
b. RoCbuck last year while he
attempted 20 make an arrest
bn-ught about consideration OF
the matter.
In reference to staggering
town board terms, Floyd said
town boards often change CON-
pletcly II the end of d term
and much time IS lost by the
new members getting oriented.
A staggered term system would
insure experienced hands on the
Board at all times.
The third measure would be
setting up preferential elections
for members Of the county and
city boards of education.
Under this system, voters
would vote for their preferences
which according to the stats
would be subject to
approval of the legislature.
II know that there is a valid
criticism in the argument that
many capable persons will serve
now who wouldn't offer for
election. 1t would be our Job to
see that qualified people were
candidates" said Floyd
