They are also close to emergency services such as fire departments, police, and emergency squads. The actual building sites have not been determined because, until a Bond Issue passes, we have no authority to proceed beyond initial contacts with landowners. A New Middle School for the "Kids in the Middle." A new Middle School for students in grades stx througn eight is planned also. This school will house approximately 470 students. The current Middle School is housed in several buildings. these buildings are all in the flood plain and cannot be renovated to get out of this situation. The new Middle School is planned to be located on property next to Meigs High School. It is planned that a road will be built to connect the new middle school to the high school for the ease of transporting students by bus and by parents. This wil also put the schools close enough to address some of our safety I security problems. The new Middle School will put all of our students under one roof and will eliminate the need for thim to travel putside from bualding to building for class exchanges and lunch as they do now. Meigs High School- Renovation for the New Millenium. As part of the Bond Issue, Meigs High School will receive an $8 million renovation. The building is in good structural shape and is certainly worth keeping for future generations. The plan is to air condition the vast majority of the building, bring it up to code for electrical, fire, security and plmbing needs, provide new windows and doors, proviede new finishes and paint and to provide a new roof to the classroom portions of the building. What is the Plan for the "Old Buildings?" As part of the "rules" from the Ohio School Facilities Commission, there are only two options for the buildings that would be vacated after building the new schools. The first option is to find a new use for the buildings. The second option is to demolish the buildings. We have until the buildings are vacated to demolish the buildings. There has been a great deal of discussion about the current buildings and the Board of Education will continue to discuss options and plans up to the time that the current buildings are vacated.

Meigs Local's Bond Issue- The Plan The Meigs Local School District has been approved by the Ohio School Facilities Commission (OSFC) to be on the November 2 ballot for a Bond Issue. The Plan approved by the OSFC and in tum by the Meigs Local Board of Education calls for the construction of two new elementary schools, a new middle school and for major renovations to Meigs High School. This is a $32.6 million 3.95 mill Bond Issue. How Did We Get to a Bond Issue? Last winter the Ohio School Facilities Commission contacted the school dtstrict and informed us that we qualified for State Assistance for a building project. A team of architects came to the district and mspected all of our buildings and compared them to current state standards. All of the buildings had problems that led to the team of architects to recommend to the OSFC that all buildings, with the exception of the high school, be replaced with new buildings. The major problem areas for the elementary and middle school buildings are in the following areas: inadequate heating/ air conditioning, inadequate electrical systems, inadequate communication systems, building in the flood plain, as well as overall poor condition of the buildings. . The hi gh school building meets most state standards. Two New Elementary Schools Why and Where? The over-all condition and/ or the location of our elemaentary schools, based on current state standards, led the architect team to recommend replacement. The plan calls for Middleport, Bradbury, Rutland and Salem Center Elementary Schools to be combined into one school. The estimated enrollment in the new school is 468 students. This school will be built in the area on State Route 124 before you enter Rutland onJ.he Middleport side of Rutland. The second elementary school as planned will include Pt;>meroy, Harrisonville, and Salisbury Elementary Schools. It too is estimated to have an enrollment of approximately 468 students. The school will be built in the Wolfpen area on State Route 143. These areas were chosen for several reasons. They are o,ut of the flood plain areas as determined by federal flood plain maps of our county. While roads in the area flood , access to the proposed school sites is available by paved county roads. The sites also have utilities available to them. The sites are not in any "town" but are October 28, 1999 Weather La Nina effect may bring mild winter to sputhern states By RANDOLPH· E.

Economy expands by 4.8°/o WASHINGTON (AP)- The U.S. economy roared back from a springtime pauSe, expanding at a sizzling annual rate of 4.8 percent from July through September, the fastest pace this year. . \ The third-quarter increase in the gross domestic product followed a sluggish 1.9 percent rate of growth in the April-June quarter as America's soaring trade deficit cut sharply into growth, the Commerce Department report· ed today. Wall Street, which has been jangled by fears that t~e economy is growing so strongly that the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates for a third time this .year, seemed more impressed by a second government repon. It showed that wages and benefits rose less than expected in the third quarter, causing less concern about inflation. By BRIAN J. REED Sentinel News Staff Voters will once again decide the fate of a proposed pennanent levy to benefit the Meigs Board of Mental Retardation and Developmental Dis- · abilities. In the past, voters have rejected the 1.5-mill levy, which has been placed on the ballot as a pennanent levy, and, in the last attempt, as a five-year levy. Proceeds from the levy would be used for maintenance, capital construction, and operation at the Carleton School and Meigs Industries, which serves school-aged children and adults with mental retardation and developmental disabilities. The proposed levy would enable the MRIDD board to conunue services now offered, and increase the level of services as enrollment in programs mcreases , allow for the replacement of two buses during the next five years, and allow for a capital construction proJect to aecomodate the growing space needs caused by an increase in enrollment, according to Steve Beha, director of the county's MRIDD programs. Beha estimates that the adult program enrollment has increased by 40 percent during the past five years, while the Early Intervention and preschool programs have increased by 300 percent during the same period. Those attendance figures arc expected to continue to increase. The capital construction project would include two phases of construction added to the existing facility in Syracuse. The first phase would add 4,200 square feet to the Adult Services facilities for habilitation activities and for the program's school-age transition class. It would also allow for renovation of existing space for better utilization of the production area of the prog~am . The second phase, which would be completed during 2002 and 2003, would add another 4,200 square feet to the school program, with the addition of two classroom learning centers, a facility cafeteria, which would allow for the full use of the gymnasium, and kitchen renovations. Total project costs are estimated at $1.18 million over th,e four-year period. $300,000 of the cost would be provided by a capital construction grant through the Ohio Departmen1 of MRIDD. According to a news release issued by the MRIDD board, the cost to property owners would be $12.60 per year, based on real estate appraised at $20,000; $25.20 per year based on an appraised value of $40,000; and $37.80 based on a value of $60,000. Assuming a 100 percent collectioo rate, Meigs County Auditor Nancy Parker Campbell estimates that the additional levy would generate $379,000 per year for the program, not counting the 1.5 and 1.8-mill levies now being collected on real estaie taxes on behalf of the MRIDD Board.

BOMB THE BAN 0f~tER Cllkmlll!1 )ll9t: tW9 stahlerO!use net We deserve a contest within both parties By BEN WATTENBERG In the begmmng, there were two runaway favorites for the maJOr party presidential nommattons. Vice Prestdent AI Gore for the Democrats and Gov George W Bush for the Republicans. Now, thanks to qutck wmnowing, tt seems as tf there wtll be a real contest m both parttes. We deserve tt. Gore's campatgn went through an tmploston phase, rooted m a stmple fact Many vo!ers don't much like htm. When only one Democrat, Sen. Btl! Bradley, challenged the vtce prestdenl, the ami-Gore voters latched on to Bradley. Bush has not tmploded. He IS sttll the front-runner, stttmg on a mountam of money He ts an appealing man and has run a sohd campatgn.

So Bush, somewhat like Gore, has one maJOr opponent. Sen John S McCam, R-Anz., who could be the next prestdent Bush seems 10 have only one weakness It ts satd that he lacks "gravuas," whtch JS an uptown word for senousness. He has served effechvely for stx years as governor of Texas; he successfully ran a baseball team, he was tn the ml busmess and helped hiS father, PreSident George Bush.

For example "An offi cer must not he, steal, or cheat ever He keeps his word, whatever the cost He must not shtrk hiS duttes no matter how dtfficult or dangerous they are An officer accepts the consequences ofhts acttons He must not htde hiS miStakes, nor transfer blame to others that ts nghtfully hiS .. " (Thmk Chnton.) If you believe thiS yrelds goody-good boy scouts, think agam after reading the chromcle of the rotsterous adventures of the three naval McCains. Item One of the Code of Conduct for Amencan Prisoners of War reads: "I am an Amencan. fighlmg rn the forces whtch guard my country and our way of life. I am prepared to give my ltfe m thetr defense " Item Five states, " ... should I become a pnsoner of war.. I wrll evade answering . questtons to the utmost of my abihty.. " The attempt to adhere to these pnnctples killed some Amencan pnsoners and almost killed McCain. Trymg to live up to the codes has grven McCarn a one word lodestar by whrch to live hts life: honor. He knows he has not always hved uplo the code, but he knows m his broken bones how important n ts to try. Now, there are some ISsues that I dtsagree wrth McCain about I'd like to see carnpatgn fmance reform, but I do not agree that the Amencan pollttcal system IS tnherently corrupt. I thtnk that It would have been geo-polltrcally unwiSe and too nsky to send Amencan troops to mvade North Vtetnam. I sense that even honor can get camed too far (sometimes prestdents should he), but as a polittcal matter I could stay up all mght and sun not ftgure out how to make . that a negattve m campatgnspeak. I agreed wuh McCam on Kosovo and on hts ftght agamst the tobacco compames, whtch ahenated htm from some of hiS fellow Republicans, ' many of whom are satd to dtshke htm. These days, that can be hts best platform plank. He allegedly has a wtcked temper.

NEW YORK (AP)- What a way to say goodbye to a century of base~all: one of the game's greatest :pitchers wearing the pinstripes of its greatest team in the most storied ballpark of them all. Roger Clemens validated his greatness. And so did the New York Yankees. With Clemens pitching shutout ball into the eighth inning, the Yankees became the first team in 60 . years to s.weep consecutive World ·series with a 4-1 win over the Atlanta Braves in Game 4 Wednesday night. "This nlust be what it's like to be a Yankee," said Clemens, who before the game gave a little pat to the monument honoring the most famous Yankee of them all, Babe {tuth. "This is what everybody said it was all about." Clemens captured the only prize that had eluded him in his 16-year ·<:areer as the Yankees won their ·record 25th championship and third in four seasons. They also won their 12th straight Series game, matching _the mark set by their Murderers·' Row teams. "To do this on top of what we did last year, this is even better, I think," manager Joe Torre said. "We don' t rest on our laurels. We went out and proved we belong here." As did Clemens. A five-time Cy Young winner with 247 lifetime victories, he had never won in the World Series. But that all changed once he arrived in the Bronx this spring in trade for David Wells, a deal that Yankees fans disliked. Booed at Yankee Stadium this -year, Clemens went 14-10 with a 4.60 ERA and rarely showed the form that put him on the all-century team. But on a cool October night-, he was in total command and, at 37 the same age John Elway was when he won his first Super Bowl earned his first ring.

The Reds offered only a one-year deal that improved slightly on the approximately $500,000 he made lastsea- No. 23 Miami No. 25 Mississippi {minus 5) at LSU (minus 17i,) at West Virginia IfWVU quarterback Marc Bulger Tigers getting closer to a win .... is on target, this could be a close one.

McKeon took over for Ray Knight during the 1997 season and got one-year deals for the next two years, when the Reds were in the midst of a full-scale rebuilding.

The Plan approved by the OSFC and in tum by the Meigs Local Board of Education calls for the construction of two new elementary S<:hools, a new middle school and for major renovations to Meigs High School. This is a $32.6 million 3.95 mill Bond Issue. How Did We Get to a Bond Issue? Last winter the Ohio School Facilities Commission contacted the school district and informed us that we ' qualified for State Assistance for a building project. A team of architects carne to the district and inspected all of our buildings .and compared them to current state standards. All' of the buildings had problems tha:t led to the team of architects to recommend to the OSFC that all buildings, with the exception of lhe high school, be replaced with new buildings. The major problem areas for the elementary ar:td middle school buildings are in the following areas: inadequate healing/ air conditioning. inadequate electrical systems, inadequate communication systems, building in the flood plain, as·well as overall poor condition of the buildings. The high school building meets most state standards. Two New Elementary Schools Why and Where? The over-all condition and/ or the location of our elemaentary schools, based on current state standards, led the architect team to recommend replacemen_t. Th~ plan calls for Middlep9rt, Bradbury, Rutland and Salem Center Elemenlary Schools to be combined into one school. The estimated enroilment in the new school is 468 students. This school will be built in the area on State Route 124 before you enter Rutland on the Middleport side of Rutland. The second elementary school as planned will include Pomeroy, Harrisonville, and Salisbury Elementary · Schools. It too is eslimat~d to have an enrollment of approximately 468 students. The school will be built in · the Wolfpen area on State Route 143. These areas were chosen for several reasons. They are out of the flood plain areas as deterrninea by federal flood plain maps of our counly. While rQads in the area flood, access )o the proposed school sites is available by . paved county roads. The sites also have utilities ayailable to them. The sites are not in any SWISHER LOHSE 4 miles past Southern High School on.right Clemens took a two-hit shutout into the eighth, then the Braves .nicked him with singles by Walt Weiss and Gerald Williams, and Jeff Nelson relieved.

Dr. James Andrews removed loose material from the joint in the procedure in Birmingham, Ala., the team said in a statement Wednesday. He must rest the elbow for six weeks. His elbow is expected to be in good shape for the start of spring training. Karsay, 10-2 with a 2.97 ERA in 50 appearances this season, went on the disabled list Aug. 25-Sept. 21 with elbow soreness. Information About The Upcoming Bond Issue To Build New Schools for Students in the Meigs local School District. OPEN Monday thru Friday 8:00am -9:00pm 1 Saturday 8 am- 6 pm Sunday 10 am- 4 pm 740·949·2682 -Overcame a year of adversity, from Torre's prOstate cancer in spring training to the death of outfielder Paul O'Neill's father early Wednesday. Scott Brosius and Luis Sojo also lost their fathers, Hall of Famers Joe DiMaggio and Catfish Hunter died and Darryl Strawberry was beset by health and legal problems. For Atlanta, the loss was its record-tying eighth straight in the Series, a string that began in I996 against the Yankees. "I think they think in their minds that they had a tremendous year with all the ballclub went through ," Braves manager Bobby Cox said. "They're disappointed just like I am." After winning the title in 1995, the Braves had "Team of the 90s" engraved on their rings. Instead, they joined the New York Giants of 191 019 as the only teams ever to lose four World Series in a decade. · "The best team won," Smaltz said.

"It seemed like a perfect setup," Torre said. "I couldn't see it not happening tonight, no( with the way his career had gone." With the final out, Clemens bolted for the mound and, flanked by two of his sons, grabbed Torre in a bear hug that lasted a f~ll minute. Then, while his teammates were s~ill dousing each other with champagne, Clemens sprinted back out to the field, climbed on the dugout roof and ran up and down, slapping every outstretched hand in the front row. Clemens recalled seeing his teammates get their I 998 World Series rings in April, and being a bit envious. " I was sitting there watching them receive them . They said, 'We're going to get you one,"' he said. With raucous fans waving yellow, plastic brooms all over the ballpark, Clemens outdueled John Smoltz. Mariano Rivera, who had two saves and a win in the Series, got Keith Lockhart on ally ball to end it and was selected MVP. "Everybody talked about last year, but this is unbelievable, backto-hack," he said. Owner George Steinbrenner's team finished off a week in which it simply overwhelmed the club that had best record in the majors. Along the way, the Yankees also: - Became baseball's first repeat champion since Toronto in 1992-93. - Posted the first set of consecutiv~ Series sweeps since the Yankees in 1938-39. New York beat San Diego four straight last year, capping off a record I25-win season. -Completed an incredible run in which they won I 8 of 19 postseason games. The only loss came when Clemens was beaten by Pedro Martinez at Fenway Park I I days earlier. ~f Fall Baseball off-season notes Nebraska, Alabama, Texas A&M seek to rebound after losses By RICHARD ROSENBLATT AP Football Wrltar Nebraska's whining, Alabama and Texas A&M are wincing and Michigan is still wondering what happened. Such is the state of last week's high-profile losers as they prepare to rebound on Saturday. The eighth-ranked Cornhuskers (6-1 ), their coach Frank Solich yapping over poor officiating after his team 's 24-20 loss at Texas, should have an easy time winning again when they visit l(ansas (3-~)- The Huskers have won 30 in a row against the Jayhawks. " I would rather not comment on officiating," Solich said a few days after using the words "horrendous" and "ridiculous" to describe two decisions that went against his team. "It appears I've done quite a bit in the last two days." The 14th-ranked Crimson Tide (S-2), 21-7 losers to Tennessee last week, play No. 20 Southern Mississippi (5-2). but their two stars, running back Shaun Alexander and quarterback Andrew Zow, have sprained ankles. Coach Mike DuBose listed both players as doubtful , but both have been running in practice and said they expect to play. Alexander leads the nation in all-purpose yards with 198 per game.

Belpre heads into the contest with a uncharacteri stic 2-7 mark overall and a 1-3 mark in the Ohio Division. Meigs is 5-4 overall and 2-2 in the Ohio Division. Meigs and Belpre have the oldest rivalry in Meigs history. The two teams have met on the gridiron 29 times, with Belpre winning 16 of them. The winner of the game will take home the Jaycees Challenge trophy. In 1982 the Belpre Jaycees and the Meigs County Jaycees established the trophy to go to the winner of the annual contest between the two schools. Although the Meigs Jaycees are no longer active, the tradition continues. <, "thursday, October 28, 1999 · Thursday, Octobe"r 2a; 1999 • · .. '. !

They are also close to emergency services such as fire departments, police, and emergency squads. The actual building sites have not been determined because; until a Bond Issue passes, we have no authority to proceed beyond initial contacts with landowners. A New Middle School for the "Kids in the Middle." A new Middle School for students in grades six through eight is planned also. This school will house approximately 470 students. The current Middle School is housed in several buildings. these buildings are all in the flood plain and cannot be renovated to get out of this situation. The new Middle School is planned to be located on property next to Meigs High School. It is planned that a road will be built to connect the new middle school to the high school for the ease of transporti~g students by bus and by parents. This wit also put the schools close enough to address some of our safety I security problems. The new Middle School will put all of our students under one roof and will eliminate the need for thim to travel putside from building to building for ciass exchanges and lunch as they do now. Meigs High School- Renovation for the New Millenium. As part of the Bond Issue, Meigs Hjgh School will receive an $8 million renovation. The building is in good structural shape and is certainly worth keeping for future generatiorls. The plan is to air condition the vast majority of the building, bring it up to code for electrical, fire, security and plmbing needs, provide riew windows and doors, proviede new finishes and paint and to provide a new roof to the classroom portions of the building. What is the Plan for the "Old Buildings?" As part of the "rules" from the Ohio School Facilities Commission, there are only two options for the buildings that wmlld ~vacated after building the new schools. The first option is to find a new use for the buildings. The second option is to demolish the buildings. We have until the buildings are vacated to demolish the buildings. There has been a great deal of di~cussion about the current buildings and the Board of Education will continue to discuss options and plans up to the time that the current buildings are vacated. The Boiml would like for as many of ihe buildings to remain in use in the local communities dueto our inyestment in both money and memories. Some of the optiions that have been discussed include: Bradbury Elementary may have to be demolished due to limits in expanding its sewage system and other problems. Harrisonville Elementary is very limited due to its location, heating with propane (cost lo maintain) and its general overall condition. Two entities are interested in the building. Middleport Elementary is . in good overall condition but it is located in the flood plain. It would make an excellent location for a Village · Community Center and Village Hall. Pomeroy · Elementary is in a very restricted area, has some structural problems and is very costly to heat, but there is interest in the building. Rutland Elementary is on a very small lot and has had many maintenance problems over the past few years. It would make an excellent location for a new fire department I emergency squad building for the Village of Rutland. Salem Ce.pter Elementary has a deed restriction thatr forces the district to offer the property back to the original landowner. That and the general condition· of the building severely limit the uses of that building and it may well have to be demolished. Salisbury Elementary is planned to be used as a new location for the Central Offices of the district. The current location in Pomeroy is restricted in size and accessibility The Meigs Middle School (main building) offers challenges in terms of the flood plain laws but woul<! make an excellent location for a multitude of uses for the community and county. What is this going to Cost? The Board of Education adopted a Resoulution that will reduce the amount of what you currently pay for the Permanent Improvement Levy by the amount of the Bond Issue. You will not pay any additional taxes for the Bond Issue untl your reappraisal exceeds the amount you currently pay for schools. The Bond Issue is for 23 years but if property values increase in the district, the Bond Issue will be paid off at an earlier date. Also, by state law, one-half of a mill "stays at home" to be set aside for future maintenance of the buildings and for needed renovations. The state is putting up $5 for every $1 raised locally. Our sister school districts in Meigs Counly have alredy passed bond issues and are enjoying the benefits of new schools or waiting patiently to move into them. Our students (current and future) deserve the same consideration. Please helP. us help them. ·. eome di <Join the 'JU.Nf • ..

Beginning next October, northeast Ohio residents within the 330 area 'code will keep their number but must dial 10 digits for local calls, said PUCO spokeswoman Beth Gianforcaro . When all existing numbers have been used, new customers in the region get the new area code but also must dial I0 digits for local calls. Phones in the same neighborhood, or even the same house, can have different codes, Gianforcaro said The PUCO cited fax ·machines, cell phones, pagers, ATMs and computer modems for the increased demand on phone lines. Area codes ~ are being used up much more rapidly than expected, and only I0,000 numerical combinations exist for each prefix, Gianforcaro said. "As Ohio's telecommunications needs and technology increase, we are all likely to be dialing I 0 digits," PUCO Chairman Alan Schriber said. "This is a small price to pay for the features and conveniences we'll soon have at our di,sposal. The PUCO is also keeping a close ' eye on the Toledo (419), Cleveland (440) and Cincmnati (5 13) areas, said Scott Paller, direFlor of telecommunications for the PUCO. 7 12-14 v Editorial~ L.ocal ' 2 3 Soorts Weather 4&5 3 Lotteries WWl Crow's Family Restaurant Pick 3: ·4-3-2; Pltk 4: 5.{)-9-4 BuckeyeS: 2·14·16-19·37 Featuring Kentucky Fried Chkkin 228 Mala St. Pomeroy, Ohio lY.YA. nan,. 3: 2-0-6; Dally 4: H-0-6 Drive-Thru.Wladow C 1999 ~hio Valley Publi•hina Co. veto·· by presl•dent By LAURIE KELLMAN Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON House Republicans moved another step toward an inevitable budget shawdown with President Clinton, passing and sending to the Senate the last and largest - spending bill of th'e year in the face of a cenain veto. "We've put our mark on it, he'll put his mark on it in the form of a veto, and that's when negotiations really start," House Appropriations Commiuee Chairman Bill Young, RFia., said Thursda~ after the- House passed a huge bill to fund the District of Columbia and the health and labor departments. The spending measure, approved on a .near pany-line 218-211 vote, also.carried a 0.97 percent across-theboard cut in federal agencies ' budgets, which Clinton has said he would not accept Senate passage was expected early next week. • It was the last of the 13 spending btlls needed to fund the government in fiscal 2000, which began Oct I . Congress already has passed and Clinton has signed two short-term measures that have kept the government running nearly a month into the new year. But neither the Republican-led Congress nor the president was ready to let the budget fight produce a federal shutdown. So Congress on Thursday also sent Clinton a measure letting .federal agencies function through Nov. 5 as the two sides work through their differences. The House vote on the extension was 424-2, Senate passage was by voice vote, and Clinton's signature "was expected quickly. · Picking his own baules, Clinton acknowledged what has been a political fact in Washington for many weeks: That his proposals to extend the solvency of Medicare and Social Security, and create a new Medicare prescription drug benefit, would have to wait until next year. "I think th'ey're making a big mistake," Clinton said of GOP opposition to handling those matters in Congress' few remaining weeks of 1999. . He added , "We can come back to all that early neltl· year." House Republicans, meanwhile, celebrated a near partr line passage ofthe .final spending bill. - , ' •. I· ' ,I "Today's vote IS a victory for the American taKpayer and America's seniors," said House Speaker Dennis Hasler!, R-IlL, as dozens of GOP lawmakers gathered oil the Capitol's East Lawn amid banners and a four-piece jazz band playing, "Pennies From Heaven ." · "Mr. President, please make the responsible decision for American taxpayers and American seniors and sign ·this important bill into law," Hastert added. There was virtually no chance of that. Clinton stood ready to veto the nneasure because of the da01age he said would be caused by the acrossthe-board cuts in all agency budgets, which Republicans included to avoid using Social Security money. Clinton also objected when the GOP did not provide the money he sought to help communities hire thousands of elementary school teachers. The final spending bill contained $314 billion for education, labor and health programs for the new fiscal year and $429 million for the District of Columbia budget. It included more than Clinton wanted for the Job Corps and AIDS treatment, but less than he wants for substance abuse· and programs for the elderly. The maaka created this month by fifth graders at the Pomeroy Elementary School are of no ordinary dealgn. They are individual expreaalona of art, painted In vivid colors and decorated with aequlns, glitter, feather• and ribbons.

Village officials said Thursday 's announcement was especially good news because 180 jobs are being lost by the consolidation of production at JPE Finishing with another plant in Beavercreek. American Buildings closed a plant here nine years ago, pulling 150 people out of work. The new plant, on the same site as the old one, will add about $35 million worth of production capacity, said .Joel Voelker!, president of the company's Construction Products Group. "There arc a lot of memories there," Mayor Donald Kolesar said of the old plant, which had been in operation 20 years. The first phase of ~he plant would include 149,300 square feet of manufacturing space for fabricating structural framing. It would be the lOth U.S. plant for the company, whtch expects to invest $6.3 million m building, site work and equipment during the fir st phase, said Ron Buchholz, vice president of operalions. The plant could create ohout 411 full -lime jobs by the end of 2000 ami 80 by the end of 200 I . Howc,er. oiTiCials smd the project is contmge nt upon state and local tax and trainin g incentiYcs. Kolesar said the village council has approved a 75 percent tax abatement for 10 years on personal prop· erty, and Greene County Administrator Steve Stapleton said the county commission could vote on it next week. It also was stuffed with,scores of home-district projects, such as $250,000 for a Philadelphia ballet school to serve poor children in southern New Jersey and $2.5 million to train construction workers in Fairbanks, Alaska. But in truth, the measure was all about a GOP effort to gain leverage in upcoming budget bargaining by letting them assen they had finished Congress' spending business without dipping into Social Security's surpluses. Those talks will encompass differences over the departments of Justice, Health and Human Services, and other Cabinet level departments, plus dozens of agencies and foreign aid . . Underlining !he political significance of Social SecUrity, both sides produced similar documents from the nonpartisan Congressional Budg'et Office to buttress their cases. Democrats distributed ·a table showing GOP spending bills would dip into Social Security for $17 billion.
