Location of a school in East Roseburg has not been established definitely, though money in the budget would be laid aside to pay for one. Glen Wellman brought up two points. Hc asked why school tax rates have gone.up while county tax rates have gone down in the past eight years, and also wonder ed why large sites now are needed by schools. Answers were: (1) Tbat the county, unlike the schools, re ceives large revenues from timber sales; and (2) that large sites are required by the state before basic school support funds may be au thorized. Another question from Hie ques tioners was: "Aren't buildings being built loo elaborately? Wouldn't square-toot costs g o down if they were built on more than one level?" Deller said that cost of Joseph Lane School was 9.60 a square foot. School Atty. George Neuner added that multi-storied buildings must be constructed of reinforced concrete, a more expensive meth od.
