Two groups met last: Thursday to plan
..ways to demonstrate the' damage that sow
eminent cut backs are doing to the whole
society. They hope that others will come
forward to join their coalition.
"We think people are starting to realize
this is not 'coon' senset but mean Spirit-

we decide on will still be
viable down the road."
• "Is there any price on
this, or are we just ha$ding
out more money?" Hallam
asked. "Why not open it up
to tender?" . ,
Metzger said it's a matter
of saving time.
"Gore & Stogie can start
immediately," Metzger ' said.
"If we tender,, [the study]
would start later." If council
