are automatically approved, and activities that have to be approved by the fund's three-member review committee. The questionable activities, Goode said, are outlined in a recent memo from the committee explaining guidelines for the fund's use. The memo described the "Area 2" category (those requiring approval of department heads) as "those activities that are not directly job related but assist in the personal or professional development that will make an individual a better manager." Approved activities include courses or seminars, health and physical-fitness programs, civic-organization membership or counsel Kundin said Inglewood, is the only city besides Phoenix he has found so far that offers to pay for managers' memberships in health clubs and personal computers. Inglewood covers benefits from $1,000 to $3,000 per person per year, he said. The maximum reimbursement a manager can get from the Phoenix fund is $760 a year.

Goode, filling in as mayor while Mayor Terry Goddard is on sea duty with the Navy, said the council specifically will examine one of three groups of activities covered by the fund: those requiring a department head's approval. The other groups are job-related activities, such as seminars, which Tax chart, B3 District Continued from Bl KINGMAN (AP) Flames that apparently originated in an overheated blown-out tire destroyed an estimated $7.5 million in oriental rugo early Monday, Deputy Fire Chief Bill Kensey reported. Kinsey said the flames engulfed a trailer containing the rugs while they were being transported from Rug Renovators of Long Island City, N.Y., to a show in Los Angeles. The fire on Interstate 40 about 18 miles west of Kingman destroyed the trailer but didn't damage the tractor pulling it, Kinsey said, adding that the driver was uninjured. Supervisors OK budget TUCSON The Pima County Board of Supervisors gave final approval Monday to a $354.6 million budget for 1984-85.

Final adoption of the budget $23 million less than last year's came at the close of a five-minute public hearing in the County Courts Building. The amount of the budget was set last month by the supervisors, but state law requires that final adoption take place at a public meeting. According to the assistant county manager, James Riley, most of the decrease in this year's budget is due to less expenditures on capital improvements. The supervisors will meet later this month to set this year's property-tax levy. Victim's identity sought FLAGSTAFF Authorities are attempting to identify a possible homicide victim whose body was found Sunday along Arizona 89 south of Winslow.

Lt. Jack Judd of the Coconino County Sheriffs Office, said the badly decomposed body of a man with his hands bound was found just off the highway by a woodcutter. Judd estimated that the victim was in his late 40s to mid-50s and had been dead from one to three months. An autopsy has been ordered. Rapist escapes TUCSON (UPI) A prisoner serving a life sentence for first-degree rape escaped Sunday from a minimum-security correctional facility near Tucson.

John E. Schlaefli, 38, was last seen Sunday afternoon at a waste pond where he was working outside the Santa Rita prison unit, said John Turner, a state Department of Corrections spokesman. Schlaefli was sentenced in Maricopa County in 1975. 3 accused of vandalism NOGALES (UPI) Three people have been accused of vandalizing Onyx Cave in the Santa Rita Mountains, authorities said. Deputy Santa Cruz County Attorney William Ramos said Raymond Hawksley, Alan Kent and Tracy Mosley each could be fined $750 and jailed for four months if convicted on the misdemeanor offense.

They were accused under a 1974 state law that forbids damaging or defacing caves or caverns. The trio allegedly removed natural formations inside the cave May 5. Access to the cave is through a locked gate. County Continued from Bl Water Conservation District for the Central Arizona Project. Among the county's 20 incorporated communities nine of which do not have property taxes the biggest change was a drop in Glendale from 95 cents to 46 cents per $100 of assessed valuation.

Phoenix's rate rose from $1.59 last year to $1.70 this year. Tempe also went up, from 96 cents to $1.21. The high school district with the highest tax rate is Tolleson with $3.99 per $100 of assessed valuation. The high school district with the lowest rate is Glendale Union with $1.86. Of the major unified school districts, Mesa Unified taxes will be Peoria Unified, $6.97, and Queen Creek Unified, $8.59.

To calculate taxes, property owners must add the rates from each of the taxing entities, including mu- nicipalities and the school districts in which they live. They also must add in the taxes for street lighting or fire districts if they live within one. For example, a property owner with a house with a full cash value of $90,000 within Glendale and the Peoria Unified School District would total the following taxes: State, 40 cents; Maricopa County, Maricopa County Flood Control District, 50 cents; Junior College District, 75 cents; Central Arizona Water Conservation District, 7 cents; Glendale, 46 cents; Peoria Unified School District, $6.97. Total: $10.81 per $100 of assessed valuation assuming no special improvement district is involved. An owner-occupied home is assessed at 10 percent of its full cash value, or $9,000 for a $90,000 house.

To figure the rate, the property owner multiplies $10.81 per $100 of assessed valuation, or $10.81 times 90, for a total of $972.90. tion of historic buildings is part of their contract with the city. Blum said it is ironic that Switzer is so interested in preserving downtown in 1984 when, in 1982, he proposed demolishing all buildings on the Square One block for his own redevelopment plan. Switzer was unavailable late Monday. Scott Smith, general manager of Switzer's stores, said the 1982 proposal was made before the block's historic significance was known to Switzer.

The $92 million proposal was dropped and, a month later, the Square One concept was adopted by the City Council. Earlier, Switzer said, "If anyone thinks this might delay something, well, they might have to do a little more paper work if they want to use federal funds, but there's a lot of development that goes on without federal money." ings. We have found that if no buildings are ever demolished, no fine new buildings like ours would ever be built." He added that he is unsure how a historic-district designation would affect the high-rise project. According to a publication by the Arizona State Parks board, which oversees the state historic preservation office, a listing in the National Register "does not prevent the (property) owner from remodeling, repairing, altering, selling or even demolishing a building with other than federal or state funds." Such a listing, however, does require an impact review for federally financed or licensed projects, the publication says.
