Van De Hey said the architects have looked at that building "and the cost to retrofit it for our use would be more than the purchase price." He said the 1 "imiM ij i ii.ii sr. I Safety Building to house the maintenance department on the first floor and Human Services on upper floors. He said the estimated $250,000 for the connecting walkway would cover a large portion of the cost of one floor of the new building.

The county plans to construct a small maintenance facility east of Elm Street because it failed to provide maintenance space in the Justice Center. "To me, that has some merit," said Supv. Mary Grundman, who chairs the Law Enforcement Committee. Baum's proposal will be forwarded to the PropertyAirport Committee with a request that it be studied. The remodeling proposals supported by Van De Hey call for remodeling the Safety Building for Human Services use.

One variation consolidates outpatient mental health programs; now housed in a facility on Brewster By Don Castonia Post-Crescent staff writer Outagamie County will continue to look at a variety of options for resolving the space needs of the Department of Human Services, but County Executive Ron Van De Hey continues to insist that the solutions will be found at the existing courthouse complex. Van De Hey, in his report to the County Board Tuesday, told supervisors that the only two viable options were a new, free-standing, building or remodeling existing space. "And the only real option is to remodel." Two weeks ago Supv. Mark McAn-drews suggested that the former Pick 'N Save food store in Westhill Plaza be considered. He said the building, which has 63,720 square feet, could be purchased for $3.5 million.

Or, the entire Westhill Plaza mall could be purchased for $9.5 million.

John Baum as an alternative to building a third-level connecting walkway between the Justice Center and Safety Building.

Baum suggested to the Law Enforcement Committee, of which he is a member, constructing a new building between the Justice Center and reduce on-street student parking or have the city do it. The resolution calls for the reduction of 100 on-street student parking spaces per year over a three-year period, starting next school year, adding that if the district does not comply, the city may take away the on-street parking near West. The city restricts parking to one side on streets surrounding the school. Balliet said the resolution he and Matz wrote is intended as a joint measure and instructs the city attorney to meet with school officials shortly to begin work on a "cooperative agreement so we can shrink the parking problem toward West." Among the possible solutions brought up thus far are the use of public transit, leasing of parking 10s van De Hey By Kathy Walsh Nufer Post-Crescent staff writer Appleton aldermen Dan Balliet and Deborah Matz went to this week's Board of Education meeting to do some damage control, hoping to smooth the way for more cooperation between the city and school board in finding a solution to student parking problems at Appleton High School-West. Apparently, a number of West neighbors and school officials had become upset after a television news report indicated that the city and school board are at odds over the parking issue, and the two wanted to "clear the air." Last week the Common Council voted 13-5 in favor of a resolution Balliet and Matz had submitted directing the school district to either Appleton teen center planning open house The New Avenue teen center, 519 W.

Balliet said the mood of council members was such that student parking on the street was almost eliminated last Wednesday. "I got into the fray so we could buy us some time over the next three years." He said the opening of a third high school could cut West's student parking problem by one-third, particularly since non-driving ninth-graders will then be part of the high school population.

The TV interview aired Monday, said Matz, made it appear the city and school district are pitted against each other, when the resolution intended to "open the door for continuous communication between the two over the next three years."

He contends the secretary serves at the pleasure of the mayor and he did not need cause to dismiss her.

Williamson's brief outlines a list of cases in which the city personnel policies were applied to Lowe in the same way as other non-union, non-supervisory city employees. He contends the policies outline disciplinary reasons for which an employee may be dismissed and grant an implied property right to the city job unless there is cause for dismissal. In addition to the judgment requested in the brief for the return of Lowe's job, she is pursuing unspecified punitive and compensatory damages. The case is before Outagamie County Circuit Judge Dee Dyer. No hearing date has been set.

This is an increase in range of nearly 300, according to public radio spokesman Glen Slaats. A construction permit to facilitate the change has been granted by the Federal Communications Commission, he said. Actually, the upgrade is a reduction in power, but a relocation of the station's transmitter and antenna will increase the range.

At present, the station, located on the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay campus, broadcasts at 5,000 watts at a height of 100 feet above average terrain. With the new equipment, the power will be reduced to about 700 watts, but will be transmitted from 740 feet, which will give the effect of about 1 7,000 watts, Slaats said. And the an-' tenna and transmitter will be relo- ratfH at a sito cmith nf Clmon Bav.
