ANDREWS m IMS ??? WCT1BIS ? I Sj8 '-IMf ? 1 Rotary Club Fayors Bonds Mayor Says Bond Issues A 'Must' ANDREWS - Speaking to die Andrews Rotary Club here Cueaday night. Mayor Percy B. Ferebee said, "We have |Bt to have a sewage treatment plant to stop polluting Valley River here, whether we approve the upcoming bond ?lection or not." The mayor explained the srswment by saying that a statewide law requires that towns put an end to stream pollution by 1967. He said that the Federal government has approved a grant of $148,500 to Andrews to pay 76 per cent of the dis posal plant, and that town vot ers would decide on Issuing 970,000 in bonds to raise the town's share of the cost in an election here Nov. 16. Other Items in the upcom ing bond election, he pointed out. Include $25,000 in bonds . for improving the town water supply system, *nd $25,000 for Andrews' share of the cost of building a community center here. Another federal grant of $42,000 has been approved for 75 per cent of the cost of the center. "The water system im - provement bonds" he said, "will not be issued, even if the voters approve them, un less we are able to get ap proval to add Holland Creek to the water shed. If we can add this additional water shed. It will increase our storage capacity from the present one million gallons to 400 million gallons. If approved, the water system improvement and sew age plant bonds trill pay for themselves, he pointed out, through an admustment in the rates, which will run about 20 per cent higher. "But we now have the lowest rates to be found almost anywhere, and even with this adjustment, they will still be low. He explained that approval of the community center bonds will mean only a fifteen cent (per hundred) tax increase. The mayor said some citi zens had questioned the fact that only town residents would pay the additional tax on the community center bonds, even though residents who live out side the corporate city limits would benefit from thecenter. He said he had answered the questions by explaining that most of the people who lived outside the city limits still owned land and businesses in town, and would be paying thrlr share. Following his talk, the Ro tary Club passed a resolut ion giving full approval to passage of all three items in the Nov. 16 bond election, and urging every citizen to vote 'yes' to the questions. Rotarian Bill Whitaker who Introduced the mayor said "these grants from the fed eral government are outright gifts to pay for three fourths of the cost of these projects, and the town voters surely won't pass up this opportun ity to get these things for one fourth their cost." The mayor also said that a health center for Andrews had already been approved, at no cost to the town, through a Hill Burton Act grant and a $12,000 appropriation by the County. "Cherokee County will be one of four in the state with two health centers," he said. The health center will be built on a one acre tract of land deeded to the county by District Memorial Hospital here, adjoining the hospital property, and construction will get underway im mediately. The community center will be built on an eight and one quarter acre tract acquired from Floyd Gibson in West NOW PRODUCING BOTH LIGHTWEIGHT AND HEAVYWEIGHT CONCRETE BLOCKS OF ALL SIZES.

The community center, the mayor said, will provide a much needed place here for meetings, recreation, and dinners. Also In the plans for the future are an adjoining swimming pool, tennis courts and other facilities. "We need this center not only for our present use," he said, "but as an attraction to induce more people and indus tries to come here." The mayor also pointed out that Andrews Is the only town in the area to get grants for 75 per cent for'such projects. All other grants to neighbor ing towns were for 50 per cent. "Andrews received the 75 per cent grants because the need is greater here," he said, "but Congressman Roy A. Taylor told me recently that he is seeking to have a grant to Hayesville increased to 75 per cent." Speaking of the economic future of the town, the mayor said, "things are looking up, but we are not out of the woods yet." Mrs. Hannah Skebbeko of Long Island, New York, is visiting her sister.
