the citizens of Bayfield to

The area public school board, has,
without departmental approval of any
specific school structure or struct-
ures, asked Stanley Township to give
preliminary approval to a debenture
issue of $ 650,000.00, Trustee Merton
Merner of Bayfield reported to the
village council in session here Mon-
day evening.
Mr. Merner reported the amount to
be broken down as follows:
Building oontract,(to include
sewage system) $ 546,000; architect's
fees,$ 32,760; furnishings, $ 25,000;
contingencies, extras and cost of
debenture, $ 13,000;cost of school
site (32 acres) $ 16,000; drilling of
well, $ 1,800. Total: $ 636,760.Est-
imated total cost, not including
buses, $ 650,000.00.
This amount is calculated to cover
the cost of erecting a 16-room unit
near Brucefield. In the event of an
addition being made to Bayfield's
two room school, two rooms might be
subtracted fray the Brucefield unit.
In any event, the board felt some
move should be made toward financing
for construction, regardless of where
it is to be done.
Reeve Fred Clift commented that
the "Save Our School)► committee, rep-
resenting West Stanley and Bayfield,
would take legal restraining action
should the board persist in proceedi
ing with the 16-room school, if no
addition is allowed to the Bayfield
school.
"We are going to demand that part
of this be built here," he declared,
referring to the committee's propos-
al that two classrooms and a gener-
al purpose room be added to the ex-
isting two.
Mr. Merner also reported that the
makeup of the area board would prob-
ably alter to acco=odate three men
from Tuckersmith township, three
from Stanley and one from Bayfield.
This has given rise to hopes local
ly that an unbiased attitude on the
part of the Tuckersmith trustees
might mean granting of the Bayfield
proposal.
In regular session Monday night,
Bayfield Council autiorized:
Grants to Bayfield Fire Assoc-
iation $ 250;Agricultural Soc-
iety,$ 50; Bayfield Public Lib-
rary1 $ 40.
Purchase of up to $ 200 worth
of steel culvert for installat-
ion on local streets.
Further study of a plan to
purchase an acre of gravel land
for village use.
Court of Revision to hear ass-
essment appeals Frflay Oct.29 at
7.00 p.m. E.S.T.
A public request that local
taxes be paid to the clerk NOW,
because "we need the money" as
Reeve Clift put it,quite frankly.
