Fire district to seek
up grading by budget
April 26 is the date set for the
Sandy Rural Fire District No.
72 budget election. The voters
w ill be asked in this election to
approve about $14,500 over the
six per cent limitation of the
district.
Meeting
on Salmon
River set
There w ill be a public
meeting concerned with the
Forest Service management of
the Salmon River drainage.
This area is currently being
studied by a team who are
considering all aspects of the
total environment, plus man's
needs, in developing a land
management plan This m ulti­
discipline approach is designed
to use a ll ecological in ­
formation gathered about the
area.
A meeting for the Salmon
River Study Area w ill be held at
the Welches School, April 28, at
7:30 p.m. At that time we will
discuss the Study Area and how
the public can present their
views in the management of
this area. S tim ulating the
public's presentation of their
views is the main purpose of
this meeting.
This study w ill take about
twelve months to complete.
Public input into the study
effort w ill help assure .ts
success.
The total budget for 1971-72, if
the levy is approved, w ill be
$55,680 compared to the current
year’s budget of $38,674.
This is the first time in the 10
years of the district that it has
had to go to the voters to ap­
prove money over the six per
cent limitation.
Fire district board members
stated that everything in the
proposed budget is needed to
upgrade the district and to give
better coverage throughout the
rural areas.
One reason why the budget is
having to be increased this year
is that the district is being
required by the county to
switch to a two frequency radio
operation. The new equipment
required to do this is figured to
be costing the district about
$6,200.
Oyher items in the budget
causing an increase in spending
are:
The spending of $4,800
towards the operation and
purchase of ¿he new tanker for
the district. The new tanker

to spend money to build two
