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

Larry Sullivan was acquit

Court, Judge Charles O'Con

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

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.
