Daniels explained the im pact of the two property tax relief measures with special emphasis on what ballot measure no. 6 could mean to BMCC. He also gave board members a written compari son of the two measures. After studying the reports, the board planned to decide at its October meeting whether to take a position on either of the proposed measures. Concern was voiced by board members over the impact of ballot measure 6 on local boards. Daniels noted, "There is a possibility of the state picking up part or all of the community college bill." While the legislature would retain local boards, there will be controls on kinds of programs and class offerings a college could have, Daniels predicted, "if certain pro gram is offered within the region, you may not be able' to offer that program," he illus trated. In other matters, the board took a look at the three options it currently has in regard to 1979-80 budget election. A wait and see position was favored by the board until after the November election when the fate of the tax relief ballot measures would be decided. Other options open to the board would have been to try to put a tax base election or a three-year serial election levy on the November ballot. Daniels pointed out, "The problem with making an early decision would be the impact Ballot Measure 6 could have." Prior to the meeting, board members toured the proposed student housing site. They in spected the new auto mechan ics building and heard a report on its progress. On their last stop, they viewed the mural mounted on the McCrae act ivity center that depicts the topography of Umatilla- Mor row counties.
