the truck holds I.(MM) gallons of fresh water and 2,000 gallons of debris. Because the town has 14 lift stations and 16 miles of sewer lines, some of which are old and cause problems, the machine will help keep lines open and in operation. Prior to the purchase of the truck, the town hired an outside company to do the necessary jetting and vacuuming. Shown in the photo are Hoffman and Ron Helman, sewer department superintendent.

Court decision raises concerns

( Continued from page 1) During the hearing, Robert Russell. Indiana State School Bus Committee Chairman and State Director of Pupil Transportation Services, testified about the marking requirements noting there is nothing magical about the measurement. The amounts were put in as a measurement to shoot for. During the hearing, actual documents from the 1988-1989 and 1989-1990 school bus inspections, done by the Indiana State Police, were not allowed to be submitted as evidence. The documents were not relevant and did not indicate measurements of the sign’s, border. Schloss noted that the judge "knew the bus went through and passed the inspections." « The Outcome While each judge is different, in Kosciusko County Court if the state cannot show the bus is perfectly marked according to statute, the case will be dismissed. “Now in essence if a bus is not perfectly marked, we will not be able to convict (persons)," said Schloss. This would include letters. lines, wording and presumptuously the right color. Following the decision. Schloss wrote a letter to State Represen-

tative David Wolkins to inform him of the situation. The letter asked that the representative introduce a bill rewording the statute. “Appealing the decision ('to a higher court) won’t do any good, ’ ’ noted Schloss. He feels the law needs to be rewritten and worded clearly, so all counties “don’t have to struggle with this. Make the law clear,” he stated. Schloss suggested the wording of substantial conformation would solve a lot of problems. The school corporation officials are asking for the spirit of the law to be restored, "so people will stop and protect the children. We would like to think we met the spirit of the law, ” noted Kryder. "We try to have as current and state of the art equipment as can be. We cannot control the other person.” Officials of the school corporation. have already made some suggestions for changes in the bus specification wording to the state bus committee. Kryder noted specifications for buses purchased by the corpora tion are above the basic state specifications for buses. “We can’t put on the buses anything we want. The options we choose are approved options by the state school bus committee." There is not one bus in the corporation that picks up or delivers a school student on a major highway where the crossing arm

An exterior public address system has been included to allow the driver to talk to students before boarding if needed,” commented Kryder about the extra measures the corporation has taken to ensure student safety. Still Fighting Despite the ruling and knowledge, a charge of passing a school bus while loading or unloading may be dismissed, Schloss noted He and Deputy

Prosecuting Attorney Dan Hampton. who handles county court cases, will “still make an effort to convict someone of a violation.” “This ruling isn’t going to stop us from pursuing charges when there is a violation.” Schloss noted if he v as a police officer; he would go through the same procedures as normal in filing such a charge! He stated when reviewing the case his office may see possibilities of filing such charges as reckless driving or criminal recklessness.
