KEN PETTINGILL, who took over the restaurant last March, said he doesnt want to run the facility for nothing, "but essentially, thats what has happened. He said similar restaurant contracts require the manager to pay the county 10 percent of the gross sales. He told commissioners he .is paying ten percent, plus utilities. EVERYBODY is making money but us, Mr. Pettingill complained. Since March, he said most of the incoming profits have gone to the bank, the county and the employees. HE PROPOSED a revised contract agreement with the county which would allow the county to credit him $28,000 for equipment at the restaurant over a four year period. This way if Pettingill wants to get out of the contract, the county owns all of the equipment at the favility. IF PROFITS rise and Pettingill agrees to stay, he said he will begin paying the county ten percent-a- s soon as the equipment is paid for. We end up with a profit margin we can work with," he told commissioners. WE DONT feel that the is very (current) contract Hints Save the heels of bread, dry in the oven, then roll with a rolling pin.
