$2.67 Million Proposal km Eighth Ward Pla ir resenie 4 i'jr As r1 to- A 'It i A y. 1-1 i I1 Jt' 'ft" ill i I 9 1. Three City Councilmen present for the meeting were asked whether they would support the proposal Pat Hennessy said it appeared to be a program he could support, but first would have to read and study the whole proposal and talk further with Love and Patrizio before he could definitely decide. Also, since council is elected at large he feels he must consider the interests of the whole city and not just the Eighth Ward. Harley Flack said essentially the same thing, that he must study the proposal.

If the money is available, he said he is inclined to favor it. Ted Zakany was more definate in his support, saying he favored it as proposed. He also said the whole city should support it L. Gilbert, member of the coalition, said at a council meeting in July the coalition would reject the proposals of the consultants, calling them bad proposals No such action was taken by the coalition Monday. They did convene a meeting after the meeting with the consultant to study the proposal in detail If the Woolpert proposal is rejected by the coalition then it will be presented to the Citizen's Advisory Committee along with whatever proposal the coalition submits Council will not receive any proposals for their approval until they have gone through the advisory committee and the Planning Commission.

Indicating his displeasure with the plan. Gilbert said the city was more interested in building a marina than in housing for the residents of the Eighth Ward so "we have to get the city to revise its priorities." The plan also met with criticism from Gilbert for delaying the neighborhood center to the 10th year from the second as proposed in the 10-year city park plan and for Bv CHUCK MARTIN TR Staff Reporter A 10-year plan involving the expenditure of approximately $2.67 million was presented by Ralph Woolpert Co representative Bill Love as his company's recommendation for a city rehabilitation program and park in the lower Eighth Ward to the Coalition of Concerned Citizens Tuesday evening If approved by council, the plan would involve a systematic program including housing rehabilitation, street and neighborhood improvements, a neighborhood community center and a buffer-type park along Interstate 70. Love said the proposal would provide recreational facilities, neighborhood improvements and a housing rehabilitation program at a cost which could be approved by the city and which City Manager Frank Patrizio told him he could recommend to council for approval. cutting the allocation for it from around $700,000 to $400,000. Gilbert also criticized the labeling of the center as neighborhood instead of city which he said was the intention of the Coalition's proposal Love pointed out, however, that a city center would not be eligible for funds from the Department of Housing and Urban Development but a neighborhood center would.

Love said the proposal was based on two assumptions, one that Attorney General Brown will rule favorably on the use of Community Development Block Grant Funds for loan and grant programs; the other that after the present CD program expires in 1981 it will be replaced with a similar program. Love explained that the availability of funds plus the expressed desire of the coalition on priorities governed how the plan is structured He also indicated the November election may change J. 1 I i.u iiii I Heroic Dog Given Trophy Margaret Ann Morris, 2. of St. hnrlcs.

Community Development Director John Ray said his department was looking into other possible ways of funding a loan and grant program if the attorney general's ruling is not favorable for the use of Block Grant Funds He also said the figures in Love's proposal represented a maximum possible commitment from the city, at least with the present financial picture I'nder the plan, money will be spent in six areas: property acquisition, loans and grants for housing rehabilitation, development and improvement of the park and outdoor recreation facilities, neigh-Iwrhood improvements, plans for the neighborhood center and construction of the center. Property acquisition and initial development would begin in the first year (fiscal year 1976 771 with "the S130.000 presently available in CD funds and earmarked for the project The second year would mark the beginning of the loan and grant housing rehabilitation program with $850,000 earmarked for the process.

Love estimates that in the fourth year, turnover would begin from the loans, providing an additional $140,000 that could be reused in the program The outdoor recreational facilities development would begin in the second year with $505,000 allocated to that phase through the 10 years. Neighborhood improvements, lights, curbs, etc. for which $170,000 is budgeted, would begin immediately. Plans for the neighborhood center would be drawn up in the ninth year and the center constructed in the 10th. Most of the funding for the program would come through Community Development with some from the Bureau of Outdoor Recreation, some from city funds (for street and lighting improvements) and some from the loan turnover.

Love explained the Housing rehabilitation and neighborhood improvements were included early in the plan to insure that funds would be available in case the CD program is not replaced. In Neighboring Namibia South Africa Pressed Calendar Meetings The Times Recorder Section WED. SEPT. 1976 Volcano Activity Subsides For Free Elections Delegates at the conference include representatives of South-West Africa's nine major black tribes, plus coloreds and whites. Black delegates at Tuesday's four-hour committee meeting said they detected a distinct change of mood among white delegates since the committee last met three weeks ago.

"There's a real change of climate, although they are still trying to manipulate us," one black delegate- said. "The trouble is that it's revolution, not evolution, that they are going through and it's taking them a very long time to make up their minds." WINDHOEK. South-West Africa (AH) Delegates to a constitutional conference shelved a free-elections resolution on Tuesday, the United Nations' deadline for South Africa to agree to N. -supervised elections in this territory. The colored (mixed-race) delegation to the conference's con stitution committee proposed that elections be held by Doc 31, 1978.

in the presence of observers but not under their supervision. The colored delegation leader, A F. Kloppers, said the committee agreed in principle with the resolution. But the issue was shelved after white delegate Abraham du Plessis, head of South-West Africa's ruling National -party, said he did not think a decision on elections would impress the Rotary District Governor United Nations at this stage. He said it would be premature before a constitutional formula is worked out for a proposed multiracial interim government to handle the territory's transition to independence from South Africa.

In New York, African delegates urged the N. Security Council to impose sanctions against South Africa to force its agreement to U.N. -supervised elections. Council members said they had agreed tacitly to postpone full debate until Sept. 22 so African foreign ministers could attend.

South-West Africa, called Namibia by the United Natirns and black Africa, is ruled by South Africa under a League of Nations mandate revoked long ago by the United Nations. The National party, which is linked with the ruling Nationalists in South Africa, last week endorsed proposals for a multiracial interim government to prepare for independence by Dec. 31, 1978. The colored delegation here believed its resolution would strengthen the hand of South Africa's prime minister, John Vorster, at his talks in Zurich this weekend with U.S. Secretary of State Henry A.

Kissinger. Sources in Washington said Kissinger was expected to prod Vorster to speed his timetable for granting independence to South-West Africa. Conference sources here said they expected Vorster to address the full conference after the talks for the first time since the conference was convened at South Africa's behest a year ago.

Scientists said they were still uncertain whether the volcano will stage a full eruption. Volcano experts Francois Le Guern and Marcel Bof remained hospitalized for observation for injuries suffered in a gas explosion at the volcano Monday morning. It was the largest blast since the volcano began emitting sulphurous fumes and ashes eight weeks ago. Le Guern had a back injury and Bof a cut thigh when the explosion caught them near a fissure. Both were reported in satisfactory condition.

The two were associates of Haroun Tazieff one of France's leading volcano experts. Tazieff and John Tomblin, director of Trinidad's Institute for Global Physics, were hurt slightly and not hospitalized. The government evacuated 72,000 people from the area of the volcano more than two weeks ago after scientists predicted a catastrophic eruption. Tomblin called Monday's explosion "a steam-blast eruption, minor in nature. It's difficult to place an exact criteria on what will happen or to set a date for an eventual eruption." He said a recent history of the volcano, a key factor necessary in trying to determine the chance of a full eruption, had not been done.

Boy Injured By Truck Two-year-old Benjamin R. Rose of 3010 South Pleasant Grove road escaped serious injury after he ran into the side of a pickup truck driven by Richard P. Tracey, 38, 2450 Wedgewood at 11:20 a.m. Monday. The Highway Patrol said Tracey was west-bound on South Pleasant Grove about one mile from Ohio 22 when he saw the Rose boy and a companion standing on the berm.

Tracey said the boys started to cross the road, saw his truck, and stopped. He swerved to the left and applied the brakes when the Rose boy ran into the street and struck the right rear of the truck. The Rose youth was taken to Good Samaritan Medical Center by his" mother, Mrs. Christina Rose, where he was treated and released. School Opening Date Postponed WOODSFIELD The opening of the Swiss Hills Vocational School scheduled for Aug.
