Show JORDAN DISTRICT OKEHSBUDGET Sandy Jordan District Board of Education Thursday night, June 27, approved a $3,431,250 budget for operation and maintenance main-tenance of schools during 1957-58 1957-58 after a public hearing. No opposition was voiced. The board authorized the build-ing build-ing committee to open bids on July 10 at 5 p.m. for construction of a temporary sewer line from Mountview Elementary School to connect to the Salt Lake City Suburban Sanitary Sewer DV-trict DV-trict No. 1 collection lines. The latter action was taken after Dr. J. O. Jones, board presi- ' ' dent, announced it was unlikely the Cottonwood Sewer District lines will reach the new school by the time it opens in Septem- ber. Estimated cost of the sewer line, tanks and pumps is estimated esti-mated at about $16,000. The board expressed the opinion that unless the line is constructed it would be impossible to open the school. The approved budget is an increase in-crease of $482,725 over this year's budget. Most of the increase is for teachers' salaries plus a needed need-ed 20 additional teachers and two additional special education classes. In other action the board named nam-ed Bruce J. iMcDermott architect for the new elementary school at 9800 South and 10th East. It also reaffirmed an earlier decision to provide bus transportation for senior students in West Jordan, South Jordan, Riverton, Bluff-dale Bluff-dale and Herriman to Jordan High School. ft also was reported to the board that it may be possible to open bids for the first phase of the remodeling of Jordan High School at the next meeting on July 18. |
