Voters to Decide On BMC Budget Vote oil the budget of Blue Mountain Community College for 19M-67 and election of two directors toi the college district is scheduled throughout Morrow and Umatilla counties, which comprise the district, on Monday, May 2, from 2 to 8 p.m. The election will be held con currently with the annual school election for Morrow County School District R-l and in this county, the same polling places will be used. Directors whose terms are ex piring and each of whom seeks reelection are Mike Kilkenny of Echo and Russ Doran of Ilerm iston. Terms are for five years. The community college bud get is up slightly from last year, according to Bob Abrams of Heppner, a director of the col lege district. It will amount to an increase of about .6 mill across the district. Reasons for the increase are the increased enrollment at the college, and a move to bring the college library up to standard, Abrams said. The construction program is not involved in the increase, since it is funded by a serial levy approved earlier in the dis trict and by state and federal funds Vocational-technical buildin;; is now under construction. Some addition ll cost will be incurred for operation and maintenance ol the bui:ding, but this will be offset by decrease in rent now being paid by the district for use of other buildings in the com munity, Al.-rams said.
