State officials said the coun- ty could delete the management clause and the requirements for snow and ice removal. Planner Janson said it is up to the owner of the property to be responsible and take care of the snow removal. COUNTY PLANNERS Joe Moore and John Janson estimated the total cost of the project at $90,000. They told the commission last Tuesday that only $15,000 has been allotted so far. Comm. Morris Swapp said the state and county only have a certain amount available and explained that other payments will go out over the next couple of years.

PRESENTED BY residents from the northern-mos- t Davis County city, it would mean construction of a complete new elementary school, utilization of the present facility while the new one was being built and renovation of the old building after the new school's completion. That differs from recommendations by the architectu- ral firm of Carpenter and Stringham. They have provided two alternatives, one calling for construction of IS new classrooms plus a media center west of the existing structure. CLASSES WOULD be shifted to the new facility and the old, nine-rooportion, demolished. An office area would be added in its place. That would bring the school to a fairly standard 21 room capacity. Price tag would be about $1.5 million. The second proposal would see seven new classrooms and the media center built west of the present facility. At a cost of $900,000, the present nine room structure would still be used with $75,000 estimated cost to remove code violations. m SIX OR eight classrooms could be added later followed by demolition of the old portion and an office area added. Phase II of the second plan would cost about $600,000. These two alternatives were first presented in an emergency board meeting about two weeks ago at Viewmont High School and later to Clinton officials. But the contingent appearing at the Tuesday night board (resting raised two primary concerns: correcting safe- ty hazards at the present school and building for population growth. SPOKESMAN Brent Buckner said several problems exist and distractions to learning during construction and possibility for delays in new construction forcing greater overcrowding. On top of that, he said completion of the additions wouJJ provide a school filled to capacity upon completion rather than provide space for future growth.

But Clinton residents have pointed to slower growth in West Point as a need for action in Ginton. possibly first AND BOARD Clerk Roger Glines said funds had been dropped for West Point with $1.5 million for Clinton. Building a new school would be better now, as well, because ofcosts that are at levels of two years ago, Mr. Buckneradded. quoting a $47 a square foot prive vs. $60 last year. CITING THE fact that 51 precent of Clintons ,052 children attend school outside the city he said schools arent city but area schools and a new facility could help West Point and also better serve two subdivisions, one under construction and the other proposed.
