Industry Deep Water Port Fine People Safest Beaches in Florida PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA THURSDAY, JANUARY 29, 1976. 15 Cents Per Copy Pressured Tuesday Night to Change Decision Gulf Commission Stands Its Ground The Gulf County Commis- ,.. ,... sion stood its ground on its ".' decisionn to hire one full-time .man to operate its Civil De- fense and Veterans Service office Tuesday night, in the face of the heavy guns of a petition reportedly signed by '934 people asking them to revert to the former style of operation of the two depart- ments. STheCommission's main op- position to their move came from veterans groups here in Port St. Joe. Former County Commissioner Leo Kennedy Dessie Lee Parker and Joy Adams bring registration books up to date.

Employees of the City of Port St. Joe will cast their ballots next Wednesday on the question of whether or not the Laborers Local Union No. 1306 will represent them with the City Commission. The vote is being conducted by the Public Employees Relations Com- mission (PERC) at the City fire station for the 78 city employees eligible to cast their vote. Polling will be by secret presented a petition he said contained 934 names and said a joint meeting of American Legion Posts 116 and 211 and VFW Post 10069 had voted unanimously to revert to the former operation. He didn't say how many were present at the meeting. Ironically, the Commission wound up hiring the present Veterans Service officer, Al- bert T. Thames as their full time man to fill both positions. At their last meeting, the Commission had said they would give first consideration ballot from 7:30 to 8:30 A.M. and 2:45 to 4:30 P.M., with all eligible employees being given the opportunity to cast their vote. The election opportunity was called for about a year. ago by the city's employees. The PERC law requires a petition for the election re- quest, signed by at least 30 percent of those eligible to cast ballots. The PERC law allows not to the two present officers to fill their new directorship. The present directors are Thames as Veterans Service officer and Richard Lancaster as Civil Defense Director. Lan- caster did not apply for the new position. He said, "I'd be a fool to give up my job at St. Joe Paper Company for this job". Applicants for the new posi- tion other than Thames were Norman F. Hodges, Gerald D. Norwood, Leslie Nichols, Jr., and George A. Glaze. The meeting Tuesday turn- more than two observers at the polling site representing the city and the union involved in the balloting. If the election is successful for the union, the workers will be affiliated with Local 1306 and a work contract will be negotiated. If the election does not approve the union, there will be no other elections unless another petition is filed, asking for representation by another union. Gissendaner Tries to Sell River Dam to Commission The Gulf County Commis- sion was flooded with reasons why they should put their stamp of approval on a low level dam on the Apalachicola River Tuesday night by Chat- tahoochee businessman J. C. Gissendaner. His presentation and opposition voiced by Dr. Robert Livingston of Florida State University and several other citizens of Gulf and Cal- houn County took up about half a marathon five hour meeting Tuesday night. Gissendaner stated that in 'spite of the fact that the dam faced some powerful opposi- tion, "It would be good for this. area. If it would not be good for us, we don't need it". Gissendaner said the State Cabinet, the Audubon Society, the ecologists, the fishermen and oysterinen were all against the $27 million dam, "but all of these will benefit by the dam", he said., The speaker, who said he had worked for development of the river system for 37 years, said the project would consist of a one mile levee on the east side of the river and a six mile levee on the west side as well as-the low level dam at a point just below the bridge which crosses the river at Blountstown. He said 260 acres of woodlands would be flooded, and would remove the hazard of a rocky area in the river which presently pre- vents barges from navigating the river about 30 percent of the time. He said now barges can use the system fully loaded, about 65 percent of the time. With the dam, he said barges could navigate the river 95 percent of the time. Gissendaner said the dam would keep the river 5.8 feet "above normal" in the six miles of the river involved with the dam-levee system. Commissioner Silas Player asked what "normal" was and the speaker replied it was nine feet. He went on to explain the dam would keep the water depth at 14'8" in the six mile area involved. The dam supporter quoted figures which he said proved the dam at Chattahoochee had helped rather than harm- ed the seafood production in Apalachicola Bay by helping to control shell fish predators and 'reducing pollution. He gave figures which he said proved oyster production had increased dramatically from a low of 756,000 pounds a year to a high of 4,196.000 pounds per year in oyster production since the dam had been in- stalled at Chattahoochee. He went on to say that a DNR representative, David Roddenberry had said the bay gets all of its nutrients from an area 25 miles up the river from Apalachicola and thus contended the dam would not affect the bay and its produc- tion. Dr. Livingston refuted Gis- sendaner's claims by saying he felt Gissendaner's remarks completely misrepresented the facts.

We wish him the best in the coming years." Linton first joined the school system in 1936, during which time he taught two years at Port St. Joe High and three years at Wewahitchka. After serving five years with the Corps of Engineers and the Navy, Linton returned to Gulf County in 1946 as the County Veterans Service Office. Back to teaching in '47, he taught math and science and coached ten years in Wewa- hitchka's schools. During this time, the basketball team won three state championships and were runners-up several years. From 1957-65 he was principal of Wewahitchka High. Linton served as the Gen- eral Supervisor of Gulf County schools from 1965-73 and from 1973 to the present, he has served as the Director of Ad- ministration for the Board. He has been the administra- tor of the finance office, planned and administered var- (Continued on Page 6) * ed out to be A re-play of the meeting two weeks ago when the Commission decided to make their move, with one exception-the meeting Tues- day night had to be moved -to the court room because of thi large number of people who showed up to attempt to pressure the Commission into changing their mind. They. didn't succeed, however. The. Commission stuck to its three to two vote to make the change and made it effective with the first of February. The Civil Defense group then had their lengthy say and: predicted everything from -a disintegration of Civil Defense in the county to a loss. of federal and state matching money. The discussion wasn't; orderly nor without its drama- tics. Area CD Coordinator Bob. Jones showed a 20 minute: slide presentation backing. Civil Defense but never came out with an unqualified en- dorsement that the Commis- sion reverse its decision and. re-hire Lancaster. Lancaster remained quiet all through the meeting until the end when he and Commis sioner Everett Owens got into a long distance discussions across the room over just how much money would be saved by the new organization. Ow- ens contended the county , would save over $7,000 and Lancaster said it would be "less4han $3,000". Jones said the county had already been criticized by his superiors for having a part time CD director but said the present director had been trained and met their re- quirements in all except time spent on the job. "A full time Civil Defense man can be one of the County Commission's most important employees", Jones said. Several people in the au- dience got into the discussion. W. C. Robinson revived the charge that the change was "A personal thing between some Commissioner and Lan- caster. Th~gsheriff was asked the first of. the budget year to * take the. job and he said he would have no part of it". J. A. Janowski asked that the question be placed on the ballot and let the people express their feelings in the matter. Janowski's suggestion was adopted in part, near the end of the discussion. The Commission, on a mo- tion by Silas Player was asked to place the question on the ballot and let the two Deparyt- ments operate as they are Mnw until that time. Chairman Money vacated the chair to second the motion which fail- ed on the vote. Later Commissioner Owens moved the change be made and a question be placed on the November ballot whether or not to revert to the old system. This motion was sec- onded by Commissioner Otis Davis and it passed unani- mously. Lancaster then fired his guns and charged that the Commission was setting the Civil Defense program back. He said he served the CD for 15 years, mostly without pay and he liked the work. He again stressed that in his opinion to Commissioner Ow- ens that he "didn't know what he was talking about or was lying" when he said the move by the Board would save the county an appreciable amount of money. Lancaster charged that most of the so-called savings were federal dollars which were not reflected in ad valorem taxes. Then the Board got around to calling for a vote on the hiring of Thames for the director to handle both de- partments at a salary of $8,200 a year, with Commissioner Davis casting a "nay" vote, The other four Commissioners approved the motion.

Fuqua Improperly Maligned Congressman Don Fuqua from ,dltha is catching flack from all sides because of his stand on the question f' whether or not to place a punm-of-the-river dam on the Apala- ihicola River near Blountstown. Congressman Fuqua has taken ?the reasonable attitude, in our :opinion, that he will wait for the stdidy now being made on the effects .f such a dam before he makes his decision. It seems-reasonable to us 5bepause we think it is only right that soiheone in a responsible position gather the facts before he unloads his powerful vote and influence in iany situation. In our opinion, this makes Congressman Fuqua a re- Jsponsible lawmaker and this seems to be a disappearing breed. We're taking the same attitude as Fuqua. On the surface of what we have learned to date, we can see no harm from the kind of dam propos- ed. We will not express a decision on support or non-support of the dam until the study is complete. If such a Sdam will not hurt what is already 'here and help in other areas, we will :be for it. If it would prove damaging to the recreational, seafood or esthetic values weP place on the Apalachicola, we will be opposed. Many have come out opposing the dam simply because they don't want it on the River or just because ,it is their opinion such a dam would be damaging. Most of the areas, of damage concern seems to be fear of ruining the sports fishing. We would- n't like that either, since we like to wet a hook and the Apalachicbla River is our favorite spot to partake in this activity. Then too there are those who think the study results will be loaded since it is being conducted by the Corps of Engineer. This isn't so since there are representatives from both sides of the dam question on the study team and we feel there will be a fair report. - Therefore, we feel Congressman' Fuqua is takirig the proper attitude toward the dam. When the study is over he won't have to support an untenable position. Too many oppo- nents of the dam have assumed the old cliche, "Don'tconfuse me with facts my mind is already made up". Tallahassee Refutes PERC If Port St. Joe's city employees ,adopt the Public Employees Rela- 2tions union in their balloting next ,Wednesday, they will become the first group of city employees in Northwest Florida to do so. Already the workers in the City ;of Tallahassee have turned the :proposal down as not offering them {enough benefits as opposed to the -benefits they will toss away. If any ..group of public employees are Familiar with the power or lack of power of the public employees uniono, it should be the workers of T'allahassee who are right there `*here the law was written and ,where the authors hang their hat. They felt it wasn't deserving of iOeir adoption. Adoption of the union would m-ake Port St. Joe's employees -entirely dependent upon union rep- -iresentatives and high-priced law- .yers to negotiate whether or not they .-could come to work an hour early so 'hey could get off early, sick leave, ff3tirement, etc. These things have iilways been worked out amicably lIere in Port St. Joe between the workers themselves and their friends and neighbors who serve on the Commission. It's ironic that the Commission is the employee of the workers in our instance and thus, have an open door to gain their attention to express any grievance. With adoption of a union, this practice would have to be stopped. The union would do the bargaining. Another irony in the PERC law governing public employees unions is that after all the bargain- ing is over; after the mediators have been called in and after all the conferences have been ended, it is still the responsibility of the Com- mission to have the last word in all disputes. No bargaining or arbitra- tion is binding if the Commission doesn't wish to accept it. We have always had good relations between the people, City employees and City officials here in Port St. Joe. There is an open line of communication directly between employee and employer. We would like to see this situation continue for the benefit of our public employees as well as for the benefit of our city. Etaoin Shrdlu By: WESLEYi t.

Prison Camp Pain By CHARLIE WEBB The strength and courage of a man could be unknown, but inmates of local turpentine and sawmill prison camps knew a great deal about the two attributes. The camps were populated by men that had been sentenced to the penitentiary but whose prison life was purchased by private companies for commercial profit. The camps were an asset to the community in repairing the soft, mud roads connecting two vital survival points--the grist mill and the commissary store. Also, the prisoners were often called into the area to shove back up on the house blocks, small "shot-gun" type' dwellings that had been tilted over on one side during a foot stomping good time at a snake-oiled shindig dance, while enjoying good old hoe- down fiddle music.. Most companies were good to the prisoners, but despite the quality of mercy there was cruelty as well. This. was during the time of great cheapness. Manpower was cheap and death was even cheaper. It has always seem- ed that the height or climax of cheapness becomes the true moment of cruelty in most human endeavors. The cheap- ness could have something to do with the cruelty in the inno'- cence of the visitors who watched the whipping of a pri- soner within the compound of the prison yard. ,1 An unruly prisoner was tied to a post, stripped from the waist up, then whipped. The intense pain from the almost rhythmic pulsation of injured tissues on the prisoner's back was shown in his face. Pain could be no respector of guilt or innocence and could often show in the faces of both the guilty and innocent. We understood about the pain in the invisible guilt of the prisoners. We did not under- stand about the pain of our in- visible innocence that allowed momentarily downcast. Were us to watch such inhuman the downcast eyes a facial actions. On walking away feo expression of the intense pain from the whipping post as of our own invisible inno- spectators our eyes :.were cence? -- ----. Letters tI E editor: "" Opposes Editorial Stand On Union Dear Editor Mr. Ramsey in response to your editorial in your paper 1-22-76 about the city employ- ees joining a union: I think you should have shown a more accurate pic- ture of the situation., First, the people of St. Joe should know that your editor- ial is biased since you are a City Commissioner and the League of Municipalities have for years paid lobbyists to lobby against municipal em- ployees having the right to belong to a union. Last year you say you were forced by rising cost of print- ing supplies to raise the price of your paper by 50 percent by the same token don't the city employees have the right to negotiate a raise to offset the rise in the cost of living. All raises in the cost of services and products are passed on to consumers. You said in your article that now the city employees can go see the mayor or city commis- sioners about any problem, you are right, if they don't value their job. I can tell you of a meeting that was attended by 5 of the employees of the wastewater plant to inquire about a 5c cost of living. They were promised and did not get. Only 3 of these people still work there and they were pressured, 2 was fired and all 5 of these people were from Highland View and the word around the wastewater plant is that they will not hire anyone else from H. V. You did not touch on one of the most important part of a job, that is seniority. This means that if a man is qualified for a job and has the most time in on the next lower job, he can get the job. Now, if manage- ment likes you you get the job. If they don't like you, you don't get the job. Another thing, now you can be fired for nothing more than a supervi- sors whim, with the union they have to have justifiable rea- son. As for exerting pressure, this can be brought about by union members all over the city. Union brothers stand together. All unions. So tell it like it is Mr. Editor. Charles G. Carroll President L.U. 14963 United Steel Sorkers of America (Ed. Note-Thanks for your letter Mr. Carroll. True, I am in a peculiar position, but not as you inti- mate in your letter.

In ,-ecognition of this, members f. the Future Business Lead- :fts of America (FBLA) and *bi Beta Lambda (PBL) have :been raising larger and larger *onounts of money toward their cause of helping every i:liild celebrate a happy birth day. -These high and college stu- dents across the nation have already collected over $300,000 for "Project HELP" (Health Education Leads to Progress), a cooperative effort of the March of Dimes, FBLA, and PBL, to prevent birth defects. Members hope to raise one million dollars by June, 1976. "FBLA-PBLers know that more than 200,000 infants are born in the United States every year with mental or physical damage," says Mrs. White, adviser. "Birth defects are the nation's most acute child health problem and the young people want to do something about it." A fund raising event plan- ned by Port St. Joe High FBLA-PBL is door-to-door donations. All donations would be appreciated. Checks can be made out to FBLS-PBL-MOD account. "All the students are work- ing toward the day when the threat of birth defects no longer exists," says Mrs. White, adviser of the local club. "And what better way to plan for tomorrow than by doing something today." Funds given to the volun- tary health agency are used for research and medical ser- vice programs, as well as public health and professional education. A primary target is reaching young people to make them aware of the potential hazards to their future children of careless eating habits, drug and alco- hol abuse, and VD. In addition to an educational campaign to raise awareness about the problem of birth de- fects, many fund raising acti- vities are planned in the months ahead. The students will sponsor jail-and-bail days, set up road blocks, and offer business skills to local businessmen in exchange for contributions to the March of Dimes. Members of the local FBLA are: Areleather Henderson, president; Brenda Young, vice president; Cindy Atkins, secretary;- Sharon Weather- spoon, treasurer; Pam Grand- berry, Beverly Shackleford, Karen Kent, Sissy Brooks, Sonija Robinson, Robin Bailey and Cynthia Addison. Sometimes I sort of get to feeling sorry for myself, having to spend Saturday afternoon writing this stuff, while there is nobody around to get my narrow gauge train of thought off track. Here I am working while others are out having a good time. It's enough to make a person get disgruntled at times. Then, things happen such as happened Saturday while I was here in the office putting down this blurb. A man came in and said, "Could I get a paper?". I sold him a paper then he remarked, "I live in Thomasville and we close each Friday at noon and come down here. My paper hadn't come when I left Friday and I have to have it. You have more news in your paper than many dailies!" That's just like throwing Pierre a piece of steak. He likes that! Having to work Saturday isn't so bad after all. It's funny what a little praise or expression of thanks will do isn't it. Almost as good as some of those miracle drugs the' doctors prescribe for removing aches and pains. The big miracle is that thanks and appreciation cost so little and do so much good. I admit I'm one of those miserly ones with my expressions of thanks and appreciation. I don't do enough of it, and I realize it. That' doesn't mean I'm not thankful and appreciative in the proper places, however. I am. Thursday at Rotary Club meeting, acting president Sidney Ellis asked Mark Tomlinson to give the prayer of thanks before the meal. Mark gave his prayer in his usual volume of voice and everybody started sitting down after a slight interval. Dave May piped up and said, "Mark, you're going to have to pray louder so we can hear you". Sidney Ellis, the loquatious Englishman who is never at a loss for words, shot right back, "He wasn't talking to you, Dave". Dave thought that one over and allowed as to how Sid was right. Thi, ..repminds...me of the speech Senator Ec mun r Muskie made in behalf of the Democra- tic party as their answer"rto Presidenit"Ford's State of the Union address last week. Senator Muskie tried his best to undercut President Ford's suggestions as to what the country needed in order to bring back fiscal responsibility and strength of purpose in the nation. Senator Muskie had other ideas and expounded on how the Democratic party was the only organization who could bring order out of 'chaos. What Senator Muskie left out, was an explanation as to why the Democrats haven't already performed their miracle if they have the answer. The Democrats have ruled Congress since the days of President Truman and during this time the 'national debt has risen to the "affluent" neighborhood of $500 billion, our armed forces have deteriorated, we have fought two wars, losing both and there is anarchy and chaos in our big cities. With the votes in Congress, the Democrats were able to correct these things if they could. Senator Muskie may think the Democrats can do a better job of occupying the White House, but he has to come up with better arguments than he used on nation-wide TV to convince me of it. As a matter of fact, even though I am a registered Democrat, I see the Democrats and their philosophy on a national level at the root of many of our problems. It irritates me that when I read the list of all-state football players I don't see a single player from teanis like the Sharks, who could easily have won the state championship except for a broken shoulder and a lame ankle, and from a team like the Chipley Tigers, who could also have won the state championship from any team except the Sharks. With football players like Dilly Webb, Theodis Lee, Jimmy Williams, Robert Farmer, John Owens, Ronald Daniels, Ray Lawrence, Mike Etheridge, Marcus Manning, Steve Cloud and virtually all of the Sharks' first 14 players should be bona-fide all-state candidates. They should have at least been placed on the second team. Not a one was listed and I think the people of Port St. Joe and Chipley deserve a protest on the selection. sponsibilities of both, parties fully. We understand the law. Again, we are in the pecu- liar position of being a City Commissioner and as such we can not, under the PERC law argue with any City employee about the matter. We cannot threaten or intimate, nor can we dismiss an employee for union activities. Neither are we allowed to misconstrue the facts about the law. This is also written into the PERC law. You see, Mr. Carroll, we are bound by the law to tell the truth about the law and to know what it contains. We hope you don't labor under the apprehension that we would purposely miscon- strue the facts, especially in light of the law prohibiting our doing so. Therefore, we maintain our stand based on knowledge of the law that the PERC would not. benefit City employees. -Ed. _ _____,,,,,~,,,,,,,,,,~U~---YY2~LUII~ACU.

Edenfield, County Forester If Arbor Day (Jan. 16) passed you by, and you didn't get around to planting a special tree, don't worry. There's still plenty of time for tree planting activities. To plant your tree, you cer- tainly will want to insure a good start for it on the site you have chosen. It is not enough Memorial Resolution By Joe St. Clair A little five-year-old asked her father, who was an artist: "Draw me a picture of love, Daddy." "'Allright." answered l Ib.- failihper_ i.daldr me a pictureof the wind." The child took the pen- cil and began drawing curving lines. She stop-: ped! "I can't, Daddy, you- can only feel the wind." "That is the same with love," remarked the father. We wonder what kind-of world this would be if everything had to be in black and white,. and "feelings" were not in- cluded. We can only ima-' gine but it certainly would be lacking something. When anyone reaches a point that they have no feelings for others, they must be the most miser- able human living.

The following are sugges- tions from the Division of Forestry, Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer -Services. To plant a bareroot" tree seedling, loosen the soil and dig a hole, large enough to accommodate the tree's root system. Set the seedling into the hole so that its root-collar is at or below the ground level. Packing the soil firmly, care- fully fill the hole. About one foot away from the stem, form a circular dike and saucer around the new seedling. Fill this depression with a mulch such as peat, bark or leaves. Fill the depression with water-letiii soak in and fill onrice' mo e . The above basic principle of planting a tree also applies to container grown or balled and burlapped trees. For potted trees, dig a hole somewhat deeper and twice the diameter of the container. The tree, when set in the ground, should be at the same depth it was in the container. Always be care- ful not to disturb the root system during transplanting. In planting balled and bur- lapped trees, do not remove the burlap. Simply loosen the burlap to determine the origi- nal planting depth.

That is, a small amount of soil added, then water supplied to settle the soil and remove air spaces that may damage the root.' After planting, maintain the shallow depression around the tree to catch water. Mulch- ing is an extremely important practice. It helps conserve moisture, increase aeration, keep the soil temperature down and will add organic material to the soil. After the tree has become established, water it frequently.

One 'was for an answer and relay system which would cost the county $299.50 per month and another automatic relay system,. which would cost $438.91 per month.

The Chair- man requested the Attorney to assist the Board with these permits. Hon. H. 0. Pridgeon, Tax Collector, appeared before the Board with reference to a newspaper article about -the matter of the county occupa- tional license. He assured the Commission that he was car- rying out the county ordinance requiring all businesses to purchase an occupational license as a prerequisite to engaging in business in Gulf County. He said that the county ordinance is the exact same law (Chapter 205) that the State operated under be- fore the State quit collecting this tax. In a discussion that followed, Mr. Pridgeon in- formed the Board that a por- tion of the tax collected by the county was disbursed to the cities and at the same time the cities also require an occupa- tional license on the same business. He said that if a business refuses to pay to secure a license, it will be- come delinquent on December 1st, at which time the County Commissioners would prose- cute the business for failure to pay this tax. The Chairman said this matter will be tabled for a later decision.' George G. Tapper, appear- ing on behalf of the Compre- hensive Health Planning Council of the Big Bend Area of Florida, Inc., informed the Board that he usually comes urging that expenditures be held at the lowest level possi- ble; however, today he comes urging the county to pay its membership assessment in the amount of $1,400 to the Council. He told the Board that at the inception of the Council he did not fvor' the county participating in thisj' program; however, that it is now apparent that this Council is the vehicle that the U.S.A. is using for the approval and disbursements of all federal medical services; that this Council must review and issue a certificate of necessity for a new, or addition to, existing medical facility before any federal funds may be expend- ed, including medicare and medicare benefits to citizens using these facilities. He said that at the present time there are several needed projects in the county that must receive a certificate of necessity, such as: A medical doctor for Wewahitchka, a nursing home and the updating of services by medical facilities already operating in the county. Upon motion by Comm. Owens, seconded by Comm. Whit- field, and unanimously car- ried, the Board executed a contract entering this pro- gram. Said contract called for the payment of $1,400 to the Council. The Chairman said the budget will be amended to take care of this expenditure. The Board entered into a discussion with reference to the bid received for the con- struction of a new building to be used as an ambulance and civil defense generator build- ing. The Board having re- quested the architect to deter- mine why the bid was so high; the architect reported that $24.400 of the bid was for elec- trical wiring, mechanical and plumbing. He said that this is a very high price for an ordi- nary building. He further stated that by cutting out the carpet, kitchen and air condi- tioning it would save about $7.000. The Board discussed a new plan to separate the am- bulance facility from the gen- erator facility. After lengthy discussion, there was a motion by Comm. Owens, seconded by Comm. Davis and unani- mously carried, that the bid for this project be rejected and that the Commission get with the architect for the pur- pose of coming up with a new plan to house these two facili- ties. The Board discussed the bid for re-roofing the old court- house. The architect reported that it has been determined that there'are six down drains running into one collection system and that all are stop- ped up. He recommended that eight new drains be installed in new locations to take care of Planning Council. He said that this problem. This would add the Board is now paying two $2,983.00 to these costs.

The Road Department filed its tire and battery report for November and its secondary road maintenance costs for October and November. The Board having hereto- fore voted to adopt the fol- lowing resolution, the same ,was executed by the Chair- The Board having heretof- fore voted to adopt Resolution 75-23, the same was executed by the Chairman and Clerk. The Resolution stated that they requested Roberts Ceme- tery Road, Kemp Cemetery Road and Cypress Ave. from 20th St. to 24th St. in the City, be paved with funds available under Federal Highway Amendment of 1974, for the construction of Off-System Federal Highways. The Clerk reported that he and Comm. Player attended the Northwest Florida Plan- ning and Advisory Council meeting December 2, and filed an application for a 1976 Com- munity Development Grant for the Oak Grove Water and Sewer Project. Twelve coun- ties in Northwest Florida will compete for $1,700,000.00. The grants will be approved according to need as decided by HUD, which are based on sub-standard housing and the poverty level. Upon motion by Comm. Owens, seconded by Comm. Whitfield and unanimously carried, the Board agreed to close a 30' road in the SEi4, Sec. 15, T4S, RI0W, running from SR 22 to the old Panama City Road, (known as the Rual Griffin Road) and to open a new road to replace this road, which will be located about 12 mile west, running from the Parker farm road to SR 22. M. K. Ranch requested per- mission to place spoil from a drainage ditch on the right of way on SR 387 at Cypress Creek, which would be graded and shaped to improve the right of way in this location. Comm. Player requested a letter setting out the details involved before approving this request. The Board discussed bud- get items that may be trans- ferred to an account now due the Comprehensive Health Planning Council in the amount of $1,400. Comm. Davis said this would be a problem with the Board facing a $5,000 cut in state funds which actually calls for bud- get cuts in the amount of $6,400. Comm. Davis then asked if the Board wanted to consider combining the Civil Defense and Veterans offices into one full time position, which would save much more than is needed for the Health THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla. torney to prepare the proper resolution, providing the Com- mission takes favorable action on matter. He said that he heard no one make a motion for the county to adopt a resolution in this matter. Comm. Owens said that he understood that Comm. Whit- field included in his motion to accept the resolution, 'to also approve the request and for the Board to adopt its resolu- tion granting tle request and that is the reason he voted against the motion. Comm. 'Davis said he was only voting to approve the resolution. In a discussion that followed, Comm. Player told the Com- mission that he has made a study of the tax structure as to this property, has talked to a number of citizens and tax payers, including members of the club, and finds that the taxpayers are not in favor of a reduced tax by this organiza- tion and that the club is not in a financial bind at this time. Other members of the Board indicated that they too find the same answers found by Comm. Player. Whereupon, there was a motion by Comm. Player, seconded by Comm. Davis, and upon vote was unanimously carried, that his Board not allow the tax relief as requested by the resolution of the St. Joseph Bay Country Club, dated November 13, 1975.
