Board Awards Ag
Building Contracts
The Board of County Commission
ers met here last Thursday, again
Monday and is slated to go at it again
Wednesday as members tackle one of
the toughest budgets in years. Mon
day's meeting was announced as solely
for the purpose of studying the budget
and no other matters were taken up,
according to reports. ? ?
Last Thursday, the Board heard *?
request from representatives of the
Industrial Development Commission
and the County Planning Board that a
resolution be adopted requesting re
presentatives in the General Assembly
to introduce the necessary legislation
to have Franklin included in a law
giving Boards of Commissioners the
authority to zone. The Board tabled
the request and took no action on It In
Monday's meeting.
Spokesmen for both county
agencies voiced disappointment that
the Commissioners failed to act in
view of the shortness of time in which
local bills could be introduced in the
General Assembly. Such a resolution
had been recommended to the Indus
trial Commission by Peirson and Whit
man, a consulting engineering firm
which serves the county and the Town
of Louisburg.
The Board, last week, awarded con
tracts totaling $37,173.51 for expan
sion of the county agricultural build
ing on East Nash Street. Bids on the
project which were accepted by the
Board include: Neuse Tile Service,
$3,200.00; Roberson Electric Service,
Louisburg, $1,854.00; Zebulon Sheet
Metal Works, $2,685.00; Ronda C.
Gupton, Louisburg, $275.00; Wester
Plumbling, Louisburg, $1,392.54; Wil
son Building Supply, Louisburg,
$14,884.77 and Raymond E. Bur
nette, Contractor, Louliburg,
$12,882.20.
Also in last week's meeting, the
Board agreed to rent the former Negro
agriculture building on River Road to
the Office of Economic Opportunity
group headed by S. G. Dunston for
$15 a month. The building is to be
used two nights a week, according to
reports.
The Board continues to struggle
with what appears to be a heavily
increased budget. One report says the
new tax levy might reach as much as
$2.00. The present rate is $1.71.

nor Scott and the GOP delegation in
the House. Claims and counterclaims
have sprung forth in the past few days
about deals and no deals. The Gover
nor has gone on a whirlwind tour of
the state in an attempt to get the
people to pressure their Representa
tives into changing their vote in sup
port of the measure. Republicans have
sent their representatives behind the
Governor explaining their position in
the matter. Gov. Scott credits the GOP
House delegation with the measure's
defeat last Thursday.
Meantime, however, many politi

get most, if not all, of his tax package,
including most, if not all, of the
tobacco tax.

Speed Indicates He
Wi I Oppose Louisburg
Annexation Request
The request by the Louisburg Town
Council that Franklin representatives
In the General Assembly introduce a
bill to include Franklin County in a
1959 annexation law, appears doomed
for this session. The measure was
introduced in the Senate by Senator E.
F. Griffin and was brought out of the
Local Government Committee and
passed. However, its fate in the House
is almost assured.
Representative James D. Speed in
dicated to The Times in an interview
Monday that he has had a great deal of
opposition to allowing the bill to pass
and only "two people favoring the
measure". The Town Council explain
ed last week that the request was made
In order to plan for the future of the
towp and its growth. Speed says that
he has to go by the "sentiment of the
people". He suggested that the Town
call for a vote on annexation.
Speed explained a similar request in
1967 which he said was never made.
He said a meeting was set between he
and Representative John Church of
Vance and the Town Council, for a
particular night, but that the meeting
did rot take place and that ' he was
informed that the council would get
back in touch with them. He said a
similar request by the Franklinton
Town Council in 1967 was discussed
with him and he said he suggested to
them that a vote be held to determine
if those living in outlying areas wanted
to be annexed by the town.
He made it clear that he favors
those living outside the city limits
having a say in the decision'on taking
them into the town. He said this could
be done under present law. Speed did
not say he would oppose the bill once
it gets to the House but he did say it
probably would not pass without his
endorsement.
