Putnam scanner Sheriff’s Department A one-vehicle accident early Wednesday morning resulted in minor injury to the driver and an estimated $5,000-SIO,OOO damage to her car, the Putnam County Sheriffs Department reported. Beth A. Nees, 25, Route 1, Cloverdale, was westbound on County Road 1200 S, near State Road 42, at 1:15 a.m. Wednesday when she crested a hill in her 1985 Pontiac Trans-Am and spotted a dog in the roadway. The driver told investigating officer Deputy Michael Biggs that she swerved to the left to avoid hitting the animal, but lost control of the car. The Trans-Am left the roadway and hit two trees, police said. The driver was transported to Putnam County Hospital by a relative, police reported. City Fire Department For the second time in less than a week, Greencastle firemen were called to Indiana Lumber Co. on Zinc Mill Road to fight a scrap lumber and sawdust pile fire. According to Fire Chief Bob Elmore, this time the company was cited for open burning. A ticket was written by city police at the request of the fire department. One truck responded to the fire, virtually in the same location as last Thursday’s fire, at 8:31 p.m. The unit returned to station at 11:59 p.m. There was no damage. City Police A two-car mishap at the intersection of Washington and Wood streets Tuesday afternoon resulted in three citations against a 19-year-old Greencastle driver. Christopher J. Meadows, 112 S. Jefferson St., was cited for failure to yield, operating on a beginner’s license without a licensed operator present and having a false or fictitious registration. According to Officer Don Rumley’s report, Meadows was westbound on Washington Street at 2:35 p.m. Tuesday. Driving a 1972 Chevrolet, he attempted to turn left onto Wood Street and struck a 1973 Ford, driven by Margaret Osborne, 38, New Market, police said. The Osborne vehicle was eastbound on Washington Street and could not stop in time to avoid the collision, police said. There were no injuries. Damage was estimaged at S2OO-sl,ooo to both vehicles. At 11:50 a.m. Tuesday a parked 1975 Ford, owned by David Cox, 306 W. Columbia St., Greencastle, was struck on North Jackson Street, just south of Franklin Street. Robert Harlow, 34, Route 1, Cicero, was driving a 1984 Ford truck, towing a trailer owned by Chuck’s Rental, Greencastle. As Harlow was southbound on Jackson Street, the trailer reportedly came loose, striking the parked Cox vehicle. Damage was estimated at S2OO- - on both vehicles, according to Sgt. Carol Boggess’ report. Indiana State Police David R. Weger, 31, Terre Haute, was arrested at 7:09 p.m. Tuesday by Master Trooper Gary Salsman of the Indiana State Police Post at Putnamville. Weger was charged with operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated. He was lodged in the Putnam County Jail. Clarification A charge of theft against Patty Lawson, filed in Putnam County Court July 25, was filed in error, according to Prosecuting Attorney Del Brewer. The filing was reported among other court actions Tuesday. Brewer said no charge should have been filed against Lawson.

FOLLOWING THE SALARY ordinance passage, the Council examined individual departmental budgets for the first time. Councilmen got a cursory glance at the budgets of the police and street department, but the fire department budget was tabled when Chief Elmore had to leave unexpectedly mi a fire run. The fire, cemetery, park, pool, water and sewage department budgets will be examined in greater detail in another special Council session, scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 5 at City Hall. Police Chief Jim Hendrich explained that the $279,621 budget he proposed for 1987 is “basically the same budget I turned in last year.” Hendrich’s proposed 1986 budget was $278,254, but was trimmed to an actual $219,689 after local and state reviews. “I didn’t see the need to ask for

vantage to snare the whole bunch. OF COURSE, THE IDEAL situation would be to tour the grounds as a complete family group. This sounds better than it may turn out to be. You may be asked to accompany one or more of the kids on one of these rides that do all sorts of flipflops and bends. You may escape this dilemma by citing health reasons, but while the kids may not be too smart in some ways, they can probably tell when a parent is indisposed or just plain chicken. Telling the kids when they go out to all stay in one cluster may also be a waste of breath. If they get along at the fairgrounds like they may at

anything else,” the police chief said, adding that after checking the books with City Clerk Janice Inman, the prognosis is the police department “will be operating in the black at the end of the year.” HENDRICH ASKED FOR $22,880 in supplies, $18,448 under services and charges, and capital outlay of $1,638 for new office furniture (three chairs and two desks). He also asked the Council to consider a lease-to-own proposal on a new computer system as part of capital outlay. Hendrich said the proposed computer would give the department additional arrest recordkeeping capabilities, which will be required by the state as of Jan. 1. He said a lease-to-purchase agreement would allow the city to budget $13,000 annually over the next five years for the computer system. Meanwhile, Street Commissioner Jim Wright submitted a $398,247 budget, more than twice what he sought in 1986 ($182,461) and nearly three times what he actually received ($134,461) to operate his department the past year. WRIGHT ASKED FOR $59,500 in supplies, including $14,000 for street materials, $11,500 for storm sewer tile, SIO,OOO for gasoline and $8,200 for garage and motor supplies. He also seeks $51,200 under services and charges, including $15,200 for new guardrails, $15,000 for curbs and $15,000 for rental of a Vactor machine to clean out clogged sewers. Under capital outlay, the street commissioner listed $68,000 for resurfacing streets, $60,000 for storm sewers on Fifth Street, $35,000 for a new dump truck with a snowplow and $6,000 for a brush chipper. “Jim knows he won’t be able to get all that,” Mayor Warren commented

If this problem comes when it’s within a half hour of time to go home, the disagreement could be effectively settled by herding them all into the car. IF ALL ELSE FAILS to get the absentees back to the car on time, father and mother can start out on different sides of the midway and look in all directions. Most likely they will meet when the circle is completed and have had little more than exercise for their troubles.

near the close of the 2^-hour meeting, “but he will have to help identify the areas that are most important to his department. ” BESIDES THE SALARY ordinance and budgets, the Council considered one other item--the request for a sewer ban (south of Hanna Street) waiver by the Greencastle branch of the Church of Latter Day Saints. The church is under construction south of Jones Road and has been denied by the state in its request for on-site disposal. The request was unanimously approved by the Council Tuesday night after Mayor Warren enumerated several stipulations he determined following consultation with the city engineer, city attorney and members of the Board of Public Works and Safety. The waiver was granted as a “hardship permit,” providing the church generate no more sewage than that of a single-family residence. A $24 monthly fee was approved, with the indication that the permit was temporary in nature, pending future extension of the city system. The mayor’s stipulations also instructed the church to comply with all Plan Commission and Zoning Board guidelines for plat approval as a special exception. THE COUNCIL AND mayor noted that all future such waiver requests will be handled on a case-by-case basis in terms of flow requirements and hardship. Architect David R. Snapp, representing the church and several members of the congregation present Tuesday night, said there were no objections to such an agreement. He said his calculations indicate that the church’s sewage usage would be “considerably lower than the typical residence.”

of the family. This would be like sending good money for bad. Under normal circumstances, you may eventually be able to get the whole brood into the car and get home in time to milk the cows and feed the chickens. This would be a capital time for a lecture however. TELL THE KIDS THAT because of their tardy behavior in not coming to the car on schedule, there won’t be a trip to the fair next year. But don’t expect this to have dramatic results. Maybe they can’t remember when they were supposed to return to the car, but they can remember that you made the same threat last year and maybe the year before.
