8 L MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1963 MUDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON 1 Regional Roundup By Clave Twitchell Regional Editor A somewhat unusual aspect of the Jacksonville sewer con struction project came up last week: what to do about assess ments on property owned by persons on welfare. At a meeting Tuesday, Public Welfare Administrator David Kuhns told his commission that the property of Jacksonville res idents on welfare, six in num ber, would be examined prior to authorizing payment of funds for sewer assessments and hookups. The total bill per prop erty owner will come to about $600 and Kuhns said he thought each property should be investi ga ted 'first to see if it is worth that amount. The above seemed to infer a possibility that the welfare au thorities might decide not to pay some of the sewer charges. If they did, a conflict between the county government and city government could result, be cause a Jacksonville city ordi nance provides that every prop erty owner within certain speci fications must hook up to the sewer system by a certain dead line and pay a front footage as sessment. Upon further checking, how ever, we were assured by Kuhns that the possibility of the sewer charges not being paid was rather remote. We also asked Mayor E. 0. Graham of Jacksonville what the city would do in the event of any resident refusing to pay his assessment. He said the city s recourse would be to take a lien on the property involved. Tidbits There used to be a billboard along Highway 62 at White City proclaiming it "an area gear ed to industry." Last week a new billboard went up. This one proclaims that White City is "an area geared to progress." Times have changed. Genevieve Briggs, Wilderville correspondent, reports that a small black bear is causing quite a commotion in the Slate creek area. The little fellow's exploits included consuming all the blackberries William Dillon beck had been saving for him self at his Slate Creek canyon jj . ...
