Simnasho School—
Future looks bleak
Simnasho School is once
again on the 509-J budget
chopping block. Speaking at
the district budget meeting on
M arch 16 superintendent
Darrel Wright stated, “The
Simnasho School elimination
is the only administrative-
approved decision,” so far,
“requiring approval of the
board, yet.”
Along with elimination of
Simnasho school ($62,369),
other suggested cuts include
reducing personnel in the
m aintenance and laundry
d e p a r tm e n ts ($ 3 7 ,2 8 8 ),
department heads ($10,544),
3.5 te a c h in g p o s itio n s
($92,307), and one adminsitra-
tive position ($36,943).
Other reductions proposed
by the budget committee might
be reorganization of cafeteria
services ($49,473), reorganiza
tion of garbage collection
services ($2,972), and reduction
of building modification funds
($15,000) s
According to the budget
committee report, the basic
school fund estimates are lower
than last year. The 1982-83
estim ate is $3,130,262, a
decrease of $88,043 from last
year. P.L. 874 funds have been
reduced by $127,788. Federal
Forest fees are reduced by
$30,435. The result is a non-tax
revenue of $4,719,434 which is
$468,463 less than the current
year’s estimated revenues.
Reinstatement of the sports
program has been made “in
direct response to the positive
support of the parents of
s tu d e n t a th le te s , T he
Confederated Tribes of Warm
Springs and the Buff Booster
C lub,” according to the
committee report.
The p ro p o se d b u d g et
contains a total of $6,998,630 in
expenditures. The revenue
Nearing Completion
estimates are $4,719,434. A
total of $371,032 is added for With the concrete work finished, the Tribe’s hydroelectric project at Pelton Reregulating Dam is on
uncollected taxes making the schedule. The powerhouse is contained within the concrete shell to the right o f the photo, below the
levy amount for the 509-J crane. Start-up procedure begins in mid-June and it should be on-line by the end of June.

district $2,650,228. This would
generate an approximate tax
rate of $12.05 per thousand
dollars of assessed value on real
property. This tax rate is $1.27
per thousand more than the
current tax rate.

COCC levy election March 30
In a bold move to cut
expenses for the next fiscal
y e a r , C e n t r a l O re g o n
Community College Board
members voted unanimously to
eliminate intercollegiate sports
at COCC beginning July 1,
1982.
The physical well-being of
students will be met with a new
lifetime fitness: approach to
health and physical activities,
while students wishing to
compete, may do so through
the Club Sports system begun
last year.
In another move to meet the
economic crunch, the Board
cut a faculty position in
philosphy; a faculty/coaching
position will also be cut related
to the change in athletics. Two
administrative positions have
also been removed from the
1982-83 budget which will
com e b e fo re v o te rs on
Tuesday, March 30.
COCC does not have a tax
base to fund yearly operation
of its district programs which
reach Central Oregonians in
LaPine, Sunriver, Redmond,
Sisters, Prineville, Madras and
Warm Springs. Operations are
financed by approximately 20
percent state aid (down from 26
percent last year), 25 percent
from student tuition and fees
and 55 percent from local
property taxes.
An “A” levy request of $4.3
million will be eligible for
property tax relief should
voters approve it on March 30.
This means that up to 30
percent of the local tax
approved will be financed by
the State of Oregon.
The amount of the “B” levy
request of $302,000 is the
anticipated reduction in state
support in addition to the
$500,000 cut last year by the
state. If the state increases
College support, this levy
amount will be reduced or
eliminated to the extent of state
funding, according to COCC
President Fred Boyle.
In addition to budget cuts,
the College has raised tuition
by 12 percent and will increase
residence hall rates to help keep
pace with rising costs, Boyle
added.

son.” Son: “Well dad, don’t be too hard on yourself.” YIKES

wife really makes a tasty meal.” “Yeah,” said the other chief,” and
I’m really going to miss her.” YIKES!!!
