10, 1984, is the last day to register to vote in the Sept. 11 primary election. "County clerks across Colorado are conducting an intensive voter registration drive through Aug. 10," Meyer reported, "so that Colorado residents who have not registered have convenient opportunities to do so at shopping centers, grocery stores and in mobile units." Voter registration in Colorado is required for participation in the Republican or Democratic primary elections where political party candidates will be nominated for. the Nov.

6 general election. At the time of registration, the opportunity for political affiliation is given. If. no political party affiliation is given at that time, affiliation with the Democrat or Republican party may be made at the primary election and a ballot will be issued. As of June 29, the latest complete figures available, Colorado has 1,334,017 registered voters, an increase of 16,831 from the previous month.

423,455 are registered as Republicans, 445,304 as Democrats and 465,258 Unaffiliates, which includes 207 Libertarians, 10 Prohibition and 1 Concerns of People political organization affiliations. Sixty-one counties in the state showed an increase in voter registration during June before the branch registration period commenced on July 10. The largest percentage increase was in Bent County where a 3.54 percent increase occurred. Nineteen counties showed a percentage increase of 1 percent or more in their voter registration totals. "Pre-primary final registration is expected to show a more dramatic increase in new registrations since it will reflect the results of branch and mobile registration across the state," Meyer commented.

Town in 'pretty good shape' continued from page 2 was a lot done (curb and gutter construction) at the same time, and a lot will probably fall apart at the same time," within a few years of each other, he said. Residents whose curbs and gutters need repair have to the middle of August to either have the work done or allow the town to bid the work out and have the costs added to their property taxes. Snow removal Wagner said the town "came out pretty regarding snow removal considering last winter's intensity. However, he hopes to be able to purchase a used dump truck with a snow plow from the State Highway Department before this winter's storms hit. At present, the town has only two pieces of equipment with which to "push snow" with.

One is a grader, which is said to be slow and not able to handle extreme snow depths, and one is the town's backhoe, which is fitted with a plow. Problems with the backhoe include it also being slow and hard to manuever. There are approximately 17 miles of streets in Windsor and it takes a lot of hours for snow removal. In the past, it has been impossible to get to all the town's streets, he said. The dump truck would provide good maneuverability and would also make snow removal "fast" being able to travel at 20-25 mph, Wagner said.

Summary the town is in pretty good Wagner said. "We're doing the most with what we have. There is no real squandering of funds or efforts and it's being run pretty efficiently. We're (the town) not looking for places to spend money, but not too many towns are. "If I were a taxpayer not working for the town, I feel my tax dollars were being spent pretty well.

All in all, the town is being run pretty the lowest man on the staff all the way to the town board. Everyone has Windsor in he concluded.
