Your tax statement might not have been delivered If Kosciusko County taxpayers failed to receive their tax statements from the assessor’s office, it might be because they weren’t delivered and have been returned to sender. This word this week from the county and Turkey Creek Township assessors’ offices. The mix-up is the result of rural route changes and improperly addressed envelopes bearing the statements. If anyone has failed to receive their property tax statements, they are being asked to call the county assessor at the courthouse, or the Turkey Creek Township assessor’s office. County Treasurer Kathryn Teel said Tuesday a large number of the tax statements are from the Syracuse area and urged persons from Turkey Creek Township who have not received their statement to contact the assessor’s office in Syracuse as many of the forms have been sent there. Mrs. Teel stressed the need for correct addresses and said there is a form for correcting addresses under the B copy of the statements. Persons whose statement has been received but has errors are urged to cross out the errors and fill in the correct information.

Commercial, residential question at Syracuse

By DEB FOX A definition of residential and commercial areas concerning trash pick up was requested by Larry Heckaman, part owner of Greenhaus Apartments. The definition was requested during the regular meeting of the Syracuse Town Board. Heckaman stated that in August of 1979 he had trash pick up for 30 units in the complex and after the completion of phase one and two, pick up on the 30 units was discontinued after adding 56 new units. Jim Wogoman of Turtle Bay Trailer Park stated he had the same problem. Robert Reed, attorney, stated to his recollection the board did not have anything to do with the trash pick up problem and added it was at this time Lakeland Sanitation made a recount of the residential and commercial units. The town also took a stand at that time and stated they would only pay for one cubic yard of commercial trash pick up. Heckaman remarked it is his impression the apartments are residential and were rezoned from commercial to a residential area. He made a request the board consider garbage pick up at the complex as a residential area. “It boils down to the definition of residential and commercial,” Carl Myrick, town board president, stated that a commercial rate for trash pick up is decided when there are more than four duplexes. The board will be taking Jleckaman’s request under advisement, but stated there would not be enough money available in the budget for next year and if they do it for one area, they would have to do it for all. Heckaman commented he and Wogoman have sought legal advise and cited a case in Goshen, where a mobil home park won the court action. Heckaman strongly feels that the 80 residential units at the complex should be charged as 80 residential units not as a commercial business. He also inquired about the burning ordinance within city limits. Reed replied you can burn within city limits under certain conditions and the ordinance can be found at the town hall. t McGrew Upset Dave McGrew spoke concerning the regular board meeting April 15, when M. D, Wessler and Associates were to be there for a public participation meeting concerning the study for the step one grant from the Environmental Protection Agency. His concern was that the public was not informed Wessler was going to attend the April 22 special meeting, so no one attended. McGrew remarked it made him mad when a statement was made in The Mail-Journal there was no public participation when the public was not informed. He added he feels it was Wessler’s fault he was not there the week before. Also he added it burned him up that there is an emphasis on Project Proud and the town has been lax in taking part. He referred to weeds near the town hall and stated the street department could do a better job by faking care of the sand on SR 13. “I can’t understand,” remarked McGrew referring to the availability of the town sweeper and the fact it could be .used to get the sand off the street. He complained the sand is so thick, “you could grow tomatoes.” Dale Neff, 618 N. Huntington St., was curious about what was

going to happen to the bridge which the state highway has advertised to be reconstructed in the sqmmer of 1983. In a front page article last week, addresses were given where information on the project could be obtained, however, Neff stated that when the office was open during those * hours, most people work. Neff was given a copy of what the town received from the state highway. Department Reports Fire Chief Kenny Johnson was given permission to purchase two portable pumps at a total cost of $987, if money is available. Johnson stated he could get- the pumps at $567 for the first one and $420 for the second if purchased by May 30. The new pumps will be able to pump 290 gallons of water per minute, compared to the old pumps which pump 170 gallons per minute. William Hess suggested that if new pumps were purchased the water department could use the old pumps. Emergency Medical Service Captain Joe Anderson requested the board consider purchasing a new ambulance for this year. Anderson recommended a modular unit which has increased space and with this type unit the chassis could be changed by taking the box off. The purchase of the ambulance would be a joint adventure for the town and Turkey Creek Township. Anderson will be drawing up specifications on the new ambulance and try to obtain prices. He remarked a ball park figure of between $36,000 and $37,000 was given to him by a representative from an Oakwood, Ohio, company as the cost of a new ambulance. Myrick took this time to publicly thank the fire department for washing down the streets on Sunday in town and at Wawasee Village. Vai Duggins, superintendent of utilities, requested approval to look into prices of a new furnace for the garage area, replacing the oil furnace. He also requested a new push mower at the cost of $125. Duggins mentioned that Darrell’s PDQ Service would like to start picking up trash at 5:30 a.m. on Tuesday and Wednesday

and at the end of June change the trash pick up days to Monday and Tuesday. There was some remonstrance by board members that the businesses would have to put the trash out Saturday evening and residents Sunday evening, inviting, the dogs to get into the trash. Myrick mentioned 5:30 a.m. is going to be a little early. Duggins stated he would talk to the company tomorrow morning (Wednesday) and see what could be done. He also brought up a decision made last fall by the previous board when a promise was made about putting a water line on W. E. Long Drive for Van Hemerts and Blackwells. The cost for this would be $2,100 and the persons were definitely promised they would have water by the spring. The board tabled this matter until money became available. Infiltration was found by Don Scearce in Oakwood Park. They will be fixing the problem before hooking onto the town system. Also Phend and Brown will be repaving 200 feet of road at Smokey’s Bait Shop and fixing the seven cuts made by Oakwood Park to connect onto the town sewer.’ The cost will be approximately $2,000 on Oakwood’s Park and the town’s cost would besl,ooo. Reed will be working on an ordinance for the park department cnceming the hours the Syracuse Park will be open. Suggested times were from sunrise to sunset unless otherwise designated by the town board. Kip Schumm also stated the park board is working on an idea to take care of the parking problem at Railroad Park and they are considering charging for parking. There has been several complaints about boating groups lining up boats and tieing up the ramp. Schumm was told if he received any complaints to contact the police department or conservation officers. An ordinance was approved by the board providing for no parking areas to be designated as tow away zones at the discretion of the board. Also Reed and Robert Houser, police captain, will be working on the areas to

designate as no parking. Budget Meetings Each town department submitted their budget request to the town as of May 15 and the upcoming meeting will be as follows at 7:30 p.m.: June 3 — Street department June 10 — Fire department June 24, — Police, park board, emergency medical service Myrick stated that last date for the first publication of the budget is July 31 and the last date for the second publication is August 7. The final meeting on the budgets will be August 25. Paul Isbell, insurance consultant and Myrick will be taking care of the necessary adjustment on the insurance package. A letter will be written by Reed, requesting the state highway come to Syracuse and clean up SR 13. In the meantime Hess and Duggins will get together and see what they can do. The next meeting will be June 17 at 7:30 p.m. in the town hall. WHO KNOWS? 1. When was the first satellite launched? 2. In mythology, who were the Cyclopes? 3.
