A committee of top Arlington
officials, faced with a pressing
need for long-range capital i'm
provements, has decided that
the county can afford a S65
million program over the next
10 years.

cid sanction, but it is the re-
suit of months Of work by the
most informed members Of the
coNnty and school administra-
tidos.

SUPPORTED capital investments
and $12.4 million in new utility
facilities. The capital invest
mentS figure is made up OF a
S16.6 million ALLEGATION from
current revenue over a l0-year
peGod and a s36 million bor-
rowing program.
d'he utility facilities funds
wdold come from utility incomes
ana from borrowing supported

require a 17-per-cent aggregate
increase in county taxes.

The massive borrowing pro-
gram would increase Arling-
tons tax-supported debt from
$32.3 million to S42.9 million

Oficials said this was pos

the payment of existing debts.
The requirements for opera
