The Big Gamble
* '* ;
The Lamb Weston plant in Board
man says it may close if the Port of
Morrow doesn't lower its water and
sewer bill Lambs owns seven french
fry plants and they have a market for
just about what sis can produce Smart
folks would close the plant that costs
(he most to run And they say its the
one in Boardman A reduction of water
and sewer rates by $250.000 would put
this plant back on line With a com
petitive rate, the speculation is that not
only would the plant return to its

By Ed Glenn
growing micro-wave product line
Some folks arc genuinely concerned
Closure of the lambs plant would mean the loss of some 450 jobs, the largest
single employer in Morrow County A number of retail and service
businesses in Boardman and lrrigon would probably close Property values
would further decline, ami unless government cuts back severely. City and
County taxes would go up County taxpayers would Util have to pay for
the water and sewer systems, about $480,000 a year
But vime folks call Lambs' threat to close a bluff They think it is only
a ploy to maximize profits. I^m bs has already cut employment in half,
and reduced the hours for the remaining half Hourly payroll is now only
34% of just a year ago
Port officials say they can't make a $250,000 cut with out a substantial
change in priorities It might require closing the container terminal, or
curtailing the marketing effort Some employees might have to be laid off.
or wages reduced.
Some Boardman businessmen have suggested a tax levy, but that would
fly in the face of some campaign promises not to use tax money to run
the Port Besides, County voters often demonstrate a reluctance to approve
new tax issues
However you cut it, the stakes in this show down are plenty high Rais
ing the ante is a challenge perhaps beyond us all
But if it is not a bluff, and if we fail to call, the loss could be felt
throughout the County for years to come.
