Huron Board Defers Issue Of Driver Wages Increases in mileage rates and bus driver salaries were deferred for further study last week by the Huron County Board of Education.' Both issues were sent to' the board's management, committee to see if the increases are justifiable and allowable, considering recent- ly imposed federal wage. guidelin- es. _In committee of the whole, trustees deeided to have the management committee. look at salary increases offered to its operators of board-owned buses and for bus contractors.' Director 'of education John Cochrane refused to publiely dis- close' what the increases were. They were arrived at by the drivers. and the board's negotiating com- mittee. Under a one-year contract. which expired September' 30, contractors - who operated 120 of the buses -. earned $6,878 annually for a 90-seat bus, or $4,408 for an 18-seat bus. Trustees' also turned back for further study a recommendation that mileage ,rates for . boaid members and. employees using their own vehicle,.. be increased frorn 15 cents to 18 cents per mile. A report from the chairman's advisory committee recommended the new rate because gasoline, prices have increased twice since last year arid are expected to rise again this month. - The proposal was opposed by trustee John Elliot of Blyth who said gasoline priceg in his area have remained constant since he became a trustee last year. "This is not the time to increase our rates;" he said,, referring to general wage restraints. Mt. Cochrane • 'replied that the board has followed the practice since 1969 of 'paying the same rate as paid to provincial employees who now receive 19 cents a gallon for the first 5,000 miles and 16 cents for the next 5,000 miles, "That produces an average of 17V2 cents a mile over 10,000 miles," he said.' Trustee John Westbrook of Clinton said Huron County employ- ees receive either 17 cents a mile or a lump sum Of $60 annually. support the mentally retarded Vincent of Belgrave.
