A fte r three tax levy failures in the past three months, the school board has decided that, “ If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try, try again.” said. “ I t was not m ajority of the citizens defeated it, it was m a jo rity of those voted.” the who the who The dissenting votes of the board came from Earl Meier and Pete G riffin who felt that the budget was sound, but voters would reject the figure because it represented no significant change from the previous levy Should the levy be The board voted 3-2 to defeated, the possibility that resubmit the same budget Sandy High w ill face a proposal in a Sept. 19 levy premature closure becomes election that was defeated in more distinct. three previous votes. “ If we don’t have the levy The split decision by the - prior to about Veteran’s Day, board w ill give Sandy voters an opportunity to approve a we ll have to close down,” one year levy of $1,419,252.36 District Superintendent Jack Peters said. “ Without the in excess of the 6 percent $1.4 m illion, we re out of limitation. business.” Board members agreed Members of the budget unanimously that the budget they are submitting is a com m ittee attending the m eeting were in fo rm a lly sound one “ with no fat on it." polled by board members “ The apathetic public before the vote about their defeated the levy last tim e.” feelings on the budget. The board member Paul Tucker Planners convene The Cottrell Land Use Planning Group w ill hold its July meeting in the West Cottrell grade school gym on Wednesday, July 19, at 7 3« p.m. Three items are scheduled to be brought up fo r discussion: the newly adopted zoning fo r the Cottrell area; immediate and future problems facing the group; and election of officers for the year. 5O‘-SHINES--5O* All Boots general consensus among the committee seemed to be that the budget was sound, but since three levies had failed, something should be done to reduce the budget. None of the members had any suggestions as to what should be cut, however. M eier said the board should consider postponing the Sept. 5 opening day for the high school. “ In running a business you don’ t s ta rt something without the money,” he said. “ If we don’t have the money, maybe we shouldn't start the school until we get it.” Several citizens from the Redland School D istrict were on hand to plead their case for a lower tuition cost to be assessed Redland students. They argued that the Sandy D istrict made a profit of $100,000 on Redland students last year and were over charging them this year. (see related story on page 1) In other board action, Wayne Johnson was re elected chairm an of the board, and Ginny Brewster re-elected vice-chairman. Jack Peters was named chief administration officer and school district clerk, and Jim Smith was voted deputy clerk. The board voted to con tinue holding its meetings on the second Monday of the month from 7:30 to 10:30 p.m. in the reference library of the high school. The board also voted to continue using the Clackamas County Bank as the depository for school funds.

Moving up to Circuit Court from District Court is Judge Charles A. Sams. Deputy D istrict Attorney Robert Burns was appointed by Straub to the D istrict Court bench last week, after the death of Judge Robert M. Mulvey. Burns and Mulvey were to square off in the November election, after Burns easily led Mulvey and three other candidates in the May 4 prim ary election. Sams’ position as the county’s fifth Circuit Court judge was created by the 1977 Oregon legislature. He w ill hold court in Judge Howard Blanding’s courtroom and the county commissioner’s conference room until a courtroom is built for him on the second floor of the courthouse Straub is expected to select a replacement lor Sams by the end of next week, ac cording to Jim Brown, a spokesman for the governor A poll of the Clackamas County Bar Association placed Milwaukie attorney Robert L. Mills at the top of a list of interested candidates for the post. Mills garnered 198 points in the poll, compared to 93 for Milwaukie City Attorney M yer Avedovech Other entrants were Oregon City attorney Ronald Thom with 41 points; Richard Goss, fo rm e r d ire cto r of the Oregon City office of Oregon Legal Services Corp . with 50 points; and Lake Oswego City Attorney Lawrence Jordan with 30 points. Brown said the governor “ values the bar's opinion, but he does not feel bound by it." All three of the new judges must appear on the November ballot for voter approval. Persons who wish to challenge them can be nominated by holding a convention of 250 registered voters or obtaining 5,000 signatures of support by petition, Brown said weeks ago from Bishop Construction Company of Portland The low bid, one of five submitted to the board, was roughly $31,000 below die architect’s estimated cost of the project. “ We are e xtre m ely pleased and surprised by the low bid,” said Elementary superintendant Clark Lund "W ere ready to proceed right along with the project.” Two other contractors came in below the $847,000 estimated bid cost. Two others were above it.
