"This is one of the first bond issues that I can remember that speaks directly to giving services to the citizens," he said. "Other bond issues affected people indirectly, like the coliseum, etc. But the streets and sidewalks proposed will go directly into the neighborhoods. The housing is going to be directly related to the people themselves." The city bond package includes $36 million for street and sidewalk building and improve- memts; $4 million for improve ments to the fairgrounds; $3 million for capital costs, equipment, machinery and land acquisition for recreation facilities, $9 million for new housing and housing rehabili tation and $3 million for the devel oping a buffer around Salem Lake. The county bond package includes $30 million for new con struction and improvements to schools; $5 million for Forsyth Technical College; $7 million for health facilities, which will include renovation and construction of new buildings, and $1.7 million for Forsyth County Library for con struction of a new branch.
