Now, before ifs too late I - Turner, Van Waiter and Bryant County rood budget undergoing cuts Voter rejection last week of the proposed $220,000 serial levy (for the next four years), which would have provided $75,000 a year over the present serial levy funds for Morrow County's road budget, had forced county budget com mittees to re-examine the budget and effeel the neces sary cuts. County Judge Paul Jones said that although the final reorganization of the road budget would be handled at the committee's next meeting today, it was presumed by the committee that the $75,000 "over burden" could be re moved. Jones noted that most of the trimmed funds would be removed from the road ma terials category, which had increased this year due to rising costs of petroleum products. Although $5,600 budgeted for use by the county surveyor was cropped from the budget, it does not mean that the job of Jury acquits Sullivan Larry Sullivan was acquit ted of second degree theft and menacing Thursday in Justice Court, Judge Charles O'Con nor presiding. It took a jury about two hours to acquit Sullivan on both counts. He was arrested on complaint of Bob Oswalt, proprietor of The Office lavem at lone, for allegedly taking a 6-pack of beer at the tavern on April 2. Sullivan was represented by Don Morrison, Hermiston attorney. Asst. District At torney Dennis Doherty led the prosecution. 676-9113 surveyor is abolished. Jones noted that the surveyor hadn't been budgeted money in the last three years. "The money that was budgeted this year was for a special project involving documentation of roads and reestablishing survey monuments in the county," he said. Most of the bills submitted to the county by the surveyor in the past has been paid for out of the general labor portion of the budget. An 82 per cent personnel raise will remain for the road crew, but some overtime and extra help provisions were reduced. Jones said the total revenue sharing funds which the com mittee will be able to draw from will be over the expected amount, as money from the previous year will be carried over and added to this year's amount. The figure will probably exceed $130,000 when all the revenue sharing funds available are totaled. Bare Root Buy early and save! Shade trees, fruit and flower ing trees, bedding plants. Top quality.
