Bell $11 0,000 ToPavo County Roadsf By Donald E. Alderman Monies appropriated to Durham County to be us ed for the paving of un paved roads will also be used for bridge improve ment, the Durham County Board of Commissioners decided Monday. 1 The General Assembly allocated $10 million for the paving of : unpaved secondary roads across the state. The funds were divided among the 100 counties. Durham County was allotted $110,000. Each county's alloca tion was based on the number of unpaved roads within the county. Durham County has 143 such roads, according to , county records. Intended use of the funds prompted Commis sioner Bell to ask for clarification. His impres sion was that funds ob-' tained on the quantity of unpaved roads should be used only for the paving of those roads. However, Department of Transpor tation officials, present at the meeting, stated the, monies are for street and' road improvement. The amount each county receives is based on the number of unpaved roads. Evidently, highway ad ministrators believe there is a direct relationship bet ween the number of un paved roads and the general condition of paved roads within a county. Also, the commis sioners decided to finance, the Eno Park Festival again this year. The amount requested and received, $2,400. However, the Board, pro mpted by Commissioner Beasley, decided not to look favorably upon fun-! ding the project next year ' noting that the project : profited $13,000 last year, but opted to give the, monies to the State instead in aaaiuonai Business v to , oe . used as - a ' Monday, the commis-- bookmobile for the Approved t- homina- 7 Systems Agency, Inc.
