Ashland ReSOrt Could Be Operating In 1964, Wiese Says The proposed Mt. Ashland ski area could be in operation by fall of 1!)64, according to Ralph Wiese, recreation de velopment officer for the RoRue River National for-st. Approximately 75 persons interested In the development of the ski area met in the Mark Antony hotel in Ash land last night to hear the development plans discussed and hear comparisons with such ski areas as Bachelor Butte, near Bend, and Ml. Hood. William Patton, Ash land Chamber of Commerce presi dent and... chairman of last night's meeting, said a steer ing committee is working out an overall plan of action for development of the ski resort. A second general meeting will be called in the near future $8.5 Million To Be Collected in County Jackson county's 1962-63 tax roll shows a total of S8. 5'26.325.94 to be collected this year by the county sheriff's oflice. This is an increase of more than 81149,000 over last year's total. The county assessor's office sent the tax roll to the sher iff's office today, according to Assessor Thad Hatten. The amount is based on a total as sessed valuation of S103.44B. 929, an increase of S4.957.2U over last year. More than 25.000 tax state ments will be mailed by the department early next week. Persons paying their tax in full prior to Nov. 15 will again receive a 3 per cent dis count. flatten stressed that there will not be a levy for county expenses. The increases in lax are all due to Increases in the budget requirements of schools, cities, and special dis tricts. The percentages of tax for the various services this year as 79.8 per cent to schools, 18 3 per cent cities. 1.3 per cent rural fire protection dis tricts, .4 per cent water dis tricts and .2 per cent for sani tary districts. AROUND THI OLOII i to discuss the committee's findings, he said. I Bids on the first phase of the area development have to i be in by the end of April, j Patton noted. The self-formed committee of interested citi- j zens will assist or help inter ested bidders, but is bound to t see that some bid is submitted. i he added. Earlier, a group of ititerost- ! ed Ashland citizens mainly from the Ashland Economic Develop ment commission, pledged to the county court that the required money tor development of the ski resort, would be raised. Wiese said the conccs-iion area lease probably would be- on a 20-year term with a re newal clause. The concession aire would pay the forest serv ice a certain percentage of the gross receipts. Wiese said this should be "very low." Wiese agreed with Dr. E'mo Stevenson, president of South ern Oregon college, that the area also could be used lor spring and summer recrealion. Wiese said revenue from spring and summer activitifs would enable the concession aire to have the ski area equip ment- ready when the firs ' snow fell. I He said the proposed area ! would compare favorably with other ski resorts. It will have i powder type snow, a tyDe ; "which you never see at Mt. Hood." Wiese said. Because i of the geological formation at Mt. Ashland it will be possible ; to ski on a foot of snow. Ski able snow will last from the ! fall through April, he added, in eight out of every 10 years. Wiese said the area na a ' good water supply, but there is a problem on where to drain sewage. He urged early plan ning and hiring of a consult I ing engineer to supervise con struction. First year facilities requir j cd would be a two-story lodge. ' first aid facilities, food serv I ice. warming service and pub- lie rostrooms. O and C funds I are now committed to the lirsl ! phase of entrance road con struction from Siskiyou sum mil. Wiese said. This includes j clearing, grading, grHvellin,-; and rocking.
