RANGELY TIP4ES <br />;~~p: <br />~` <br />COLCiRt~I.U'4 <br />PR~:y <br />1'Jinninn SE!rviCB - <br />NacholitE~ <br />mining ~,~ <br />one step <br />closer to <br />realit ~ <br />Y r`' <br />s~~Y~`-' <br />by Robee H~wg <br />The nacholite mining <br />plant of NaTec Minerals, <br />Inc. is one step closer to <br />reality. The County Com- <br />missioners at their last reg- <br />ular-- meeting held in Meek- <br />er unanimously ok~ed_ a <br />special use permit for their <br />plant to be located in the <br />o[her end of the County, <br />conditional to approval-of <br />themFre ~~ing_pr~em <br />by the Fire Di::trict in <br />Meeker. <br />There were two items for <br />which no decision was tak- <br />en because County Attor- <br />ney Buck Benner was not <br />present. TheseHill be <br />brought up at the April 9th <br />meeting. The orte that <br />brought forth the most dis- <br />cussion was the request of <br />the people living down riv- <br />er from Rangely fir mos- <br />quito control. Various meth- <br />ods of government and pri- <br />vate citizen cooperation <br />were discussed. <br />The other item was an <br />agreement proposed by the <br />Town of Rangely for shar- <br />ing maintenance on the <br />Senior Citizens grounds. <br />This, as per the acceptance <br />of low bid at the last Coun- <br />cil meeting, will be through <br />True Value Hardware. Since <br />the proposed agreement <br />III IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII <br />was so worded that True <br />Value would be paid di- <br />rectly, the Commissioners <br />wondered whether or not <br />the matter should be sent <br />out to bid. <br />In a split vote the Com- <br />missioners approved spend- <br />ing 550,000 out of CCITF <br />funds for fixing the roof <br />and doing carpeting at the <br />County Courthouse in <br />Meeker. Commissioner Don <br />Davis saw the need but <br />voted no because he felt <br />County requests for spend- <br />ing out of CCITF was get- <br />ting too high. <br />In a unanimous vote, the <br />Commisstonen okayed a <br />draft of an agreement be- <br />tween the Commissioners <br />and the Boazd of Directors <br />of Pioneers Hospital in <br />Meeker regarding the Sen- <br />ior Transportation Program. <br />A request was made <br />from three Meeker wrestlers <br />who were State champions <br />for financial support in <br />attending the National High <br />School Wrestling Tourna- <br />ment. The Commissioners <br />did not feel that tax dollars <br />should be used for that <br />purpose but all three Com- <br />missioners, plus Public <br />Works Director Jerry Steele, <br />wrote individual $50 <br />checks. <br />In a final action, the <br />Commissioners praised <br />Traffic Contro] Officer <br />Dallas Boren in his accom- <br />plishment of getting County <br />road signs in place. <br />> ~~ s. - --.,r~ <br />
