Appraisal- al- -Continued The school district's proposal shows that the cost to the county would be $79,415. Using the SB 621 formula, the county's cost would be about $67,627.

Such figures are not exact since reappraisal firms say their fees for appraisals have increased since the figures were developed in the fall of last year. School district officials and city fathers maintain that the statutory formula would cost a total of $81,995 more for Paris tax payers, since the school district, city and Paris Junior College would have to pay proportionately higher amounts for the reevaluation program. Another person who had reservations was former PISD board president Ginna Walker. When the original school offer expired on Sept. 24 of last year, Walker issued a letter to the commissioners stating that they would no longer be offered the district's records at a discount price.

HOWEVER, when the board voted last Tuesday to again offer the records for 14 percent, Walker had to leave after the opening executive session and was unable to vote on the matter. "I wasn't for that," she said. "I wrote that letter and I wanted to stand by it." Three of the four county commissioners-Doyle Childers, Gene Buster and James (Dode) -have told The News that they have always approved of accepting the school district-city offer. When asked why a majority of the court had been unable to accept the school offer, the commissioners gave different reasons. Only Fisher declined to respond.

"I DON'T know the reason why we didn't go along with it," said Wheeler. "I wanted to go and then we talked it over and decided not to accept. Some of the school districts couldn't agree to the (Paris) school district's proposal, so we didn't want to make a commitment." Buster said he also wanted to accept the PISD proposal, but wanted to wait until the other school districts opted to join. Jimmy Sparks, Precinct commissioner, was the only commissioner to admit being opposed to accepting the proposal.

"The southwestern portion of the county hadn't made a commitment and I was worried that the other school districts wouldn't use the same appraisers." However, Sparks now approves accepting the school district's offer-as do the rest of the commissioners. "I'm going to vote for it," Wheeler said, echoing the sentiments of the other commissioners. Wheeler also admitted that Fisher is the only member of the court solidly against acceptance. "JUDGE FISHER has been the one not wanting to accept it," he said.

"The court is not working together and he (Fisher) wants to hold out because of the percentage thing. We (the commissioners) want to do what's right." Several other members of the school board were also questioned as to why they decided to allow the county to accept the original offer when they had previously voted to send Walker's letter.
