Although Goyke told the press Thursday that a compromise is being attempted between both plans, he is ate boundary," he said. Goyke agreed that his preference to expand to the north would mean some splitting of the City of Neenah, but noted that situation has existed for years.

Right now, half of the city's southwest 10th Alder-manic District, about 2,300 people, is in Bradley's 57th Assembly District, as well as a small pocket area on the far west side due to annexations. Both Goyke and Ellis confirm that a compromise has been discussed between them that would still split the city, but cut Ellis' political losses. Instead of losing the strong GOP base on the southeast side, the same population counts could be derived if Ellis were to lose a bulk of the west side of the city. Bradley's 57th District would thus absorb city territory west of Lake Street and Green Bak Road, plus all land south of Cecil and west of Maple and Commercial streets. "From a political standpoint, that would be the best way to go," Ellis said this morning.

"But I've decided not to support anything that splits up the city. We already have problems of voter identification in that area the city-portion of Bradley's district). I get the phone calls and the letters from them." Ellis said he will make his stand on the GOP proposal which would tack five Fond du Lac townships bordering Winnebago County as the add-on to the Senate District.

"Right now, that part of Appleton is in the Second Senatorial District, now held by Don Hanaway from De Pere (a Republican). The district extends from all the way to east Green Bay down to Kewaskum.

"But I think it has a more natural tie with the Twin Cities, Appleton, Heart of the Valley areas which certainly share a commonality of interest with Winnebago County," Goyke said. "Reapportionment is something we have to do every 10 years," he stated. "All of us have to make adjustments. I have to and so does Mike." BY TOM BROOKER Pott-CrMCOTt itoff writer MADISON State Sen. Gary Goyke, D-Oshkosh, has refused to back down in his support of a redistrict-" ing proposal that would push his senatorial district into the Calumet County portion of the City of Applet on.

Goyke's 19th Senate District must expand to accommodate about 5,800 more residents in order to come under reapportionment figures intended to put all legislative districts in the state on an equal basis. But, in choosing to go north for expansion, Goyke could upset State Rep. Michael G. Ellis's long-stand- ing base of Republican power in southeast Neenah. Ellis made it clear this week he doesn't enjoy the prospect of having his Assembly district shifted to the north to conform with Goyke's preferred bound ries, claiming it would mean the Citv of Neenah being split with a bulk of the southeast side and 7,800 urban resf-dents being thrown into the largely rural 57th Assem- r- bly District, represented by Gordon "Bud" Bradley, R-Omro.

In particular, Ellis is fighting a remaping plan forged by Senate Democrats. That alteration would 5 put all of the City of Neenah which lies east of Harrison Street and south of Cecil Street into Bradley's district. Ellis' 55th District would be pushed northward to 'pick up the Calumet County area, now represented by State Rep. William Rogers, D-Kaukauna. Instead, the Twin City representative is backing the GOP plan in the, upper house which would push "I can tell you flat out that I'll offer whatever proposal Michael wants as long as it conforms to.

the senate boundary." Goyke not at all willing to accept the southward expansion. "The traditional Winnebago County area I've represented fits more into the nature of that end of the district (Appleton), than it does Fond du Lac," hesaid. "It's a lot easier to go 2 miles to the north than it is to stretch down into rural Fond du Lac County and be spread out over all that area. "I would prefer the Appleton wards; the plan is in Senate, and we fDemocrats are in, the majority," Goyke said. However, he also added he will back any amendment to the plan that Ellis and Bradley can agree to, splitting up the territory any way they choose as long as it fits into his preferred senate lines.

FCBs Frank Wiesner, the Neenah school County eyes site for new park near Medina Junction NEENAH-MENA9HA If the Wis-- consin Association of School Boards have its way, there would be no fiscal control boards holding "the purse strings of school systems like Neenah and Menasha. Delegates to the WASB convention fin Milwaukee this week voted over- whelmingly in support of a senate bill that proposes abolishing the small number of city school districts that remain in the state. board's official delegate, and Gladys Stepanski, Menasha's, cast their ballots with the majority, as did representatives from other city school districts in the area including Apple-ton, Oshkosh, Fond du Lac, De Pere and Sheboygan. Stepanski and Wiesner estimated that as many as 380 of Wisconsin's 432 school districts were represented at the WASB delegate assembly during which a series Hi vwuv mm It would probably be the last chance for a county-owned facility in a semi-remote, yet accessible region that retains most of its natural characteristics, he indicated.

The report says county officials in the next few years should discuss a joint development effort with the DNR using goals and objectives in an existing state master plan. "The site has enough natural features to draw people from the urban centers around the county, and even people from other counties," Christensen said this morning. He guessed that if ever developed, facilities for camping, picnicking, cross-country skiing and hiking could be included in the layout, but much of the property would remain in a natural state. i Christensen guessed the county would consider acquiring about 100 acres in the region, tentatively pinpointed in the report in the Town of Clayton, He added no firm site has been fixed. In most other ways, the park and recreation plan dwells on improving existing facilities while taking a deeper look at finally getting off dead center on some lingering issues, including development of a unified bicycling trail within county boundaries.

County park officials are planning extensive surveys of county residents in the years ahead to try and establish their satisfaction with present facilities and desire for enhancements such as bike trails, campgrounds and horseback riding facilities. The plan also suggests designing a detailed master plan for the county's major park, the 252-acre Community Park near Sunnyview, and a look at recreational potential of the county's Town of Oshkosh landfill once space is used up in more than a decade. BY PETE BACH Pot-Crcnt itaff writer OSHKOSH Acquisition of property to add yet one more facility to the Winnebago County park scheme remains in the offing, at least conceptually. Though still strictly in the talking stages, the county's latest park and recreation plan, released this week, addresses the a long-range hope by park planners to create an "extra-urban" park site to blend into the rustic, woodsy landscape in the Medina Junction area. A park in the county's north-central section near extensive Department of Natural Resources' land holdings and the county's multi-purpose recreational trail is a carryover of the 1977 plan.

Park Director Jeffrey Christensen said the general site has abundant natural resources enhanced by the proximity of the Rat and Wolf rivers. REASON 2: Free brochure about the new tax laws.

One smart decision. 1 6 Yalenf ime'g IM a of 19 resolutions on" issues ranging from binding arbitration to W1AA football playoffs were put to a vote. The resolution on city school districts call ed for WASB support of Senate Bill 519, which would require the remaining 41 city school districts in the state to reorganize into common or unified districts by 1983. Electors would have the option of voting, via a referendum, for the structure they prefer. Common school districts are administered by an annual school district meeting of voters and the school board.

Unified school districts, on the other hand, give the school board direct responsibility for setting the tax levy and handling other financial matters. Under the present system both the Neenah and Menasha school boards are dependent on the approval of fiscal control boards (city aldermen and town representatives) in all money matters. This setup has been a source of frustration for Twin City school board members who feel their annual budgets, particularly in recent years, are being hacked unfairly by FCB's who don't understand school district operational needs and play politics with school finances. Wiesner said the basic reasoning behind the WASB resolution favoring elimination of city school districts is a combination of accountability and responsibility, plus the fact that fiscal control boards vote on the basis of equalized value rather than "one person one vote." Wiesner who as Nee-nah's board president has long been unhappy with the FCB setup, said he talked with some delegates who didn't realize city school districts -still existed in the state. "Some told me they couldn't believe it and would never run for a board of education under those conditions." According to Stepanski, only four delegates voted against the WASB resolution on city school districts.

She noted that the Menasha school board has had mixed emotions about making a change.
