1�J EDWARD REGAN, DIRECTOR OF THE COMMUNITY BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM, INFORMED THE BOARD THAT THERE STILL IS A SMALL MATTER THAT NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED IN REGARD TO ROUGH GRADING THE LIMEROCK FOR THE GIFFORD TENNIS COURTS. MR. WEHR STATED THAT THE GIFFORD PROGRESSIVE CIVIC LEAGUE WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT THE ROUGH GRADING OF THE LIMEROCK WOULD BE DONE BY THE COUNTY, BUT THIS WAS NOT BROUGHT UP AGAIN AT THE LAST MEETING, AND HE NOW UNDERSTANDS THAT IT MUST BE AUTHORIZED. ADMINISTRATOR .JENNINGS FELT THERE IS NO OBJECTION TO THE COUNTY GOING IN AND ROUGH GRADING THE LIMEROCK AS LONG AS IT IS THOROUGHLY UNDERSTOOD THAT THE ASPHALT, ETC., IS NOT TO BE APPLIED UNTIL OTHERS HAVE FINE GRADED THE LIMEROCK. HE STATED THAT WE HAVE THE CAPABILITIES FOR ROUGH GRADING, BUT HE WOULD LIKE THE MINUTES TO SHOW THAT THE FINISH GRADE, THE DRESSING, CROWNING, ETC., OF THE 1 LIMEROCK MUST BE DONE BY OTHERS BEFORE THE ASPHALT IS APPLIED. MR, WEHR STATED THAT DICKERSON WILL DO ALL THAT, AND COMMISSIONER SIEBERT ASKED WHY THEY CANT DO THE ROUGH GRADING. MR. WEHR STATED THAT HEIS TRYING TO SAVE MONEY. . ADMINISTRATOR JENNINGS REPEATED THAT THE COUNTY CAN ROUGH GRADE, BUT IF THIS IS NOT FINISHED IN A PROPER MANNER, THE COURT WILL NEVER BE SATISFACTORY SO HE WANTS IT THOROUGHLY UNDERSTOOD THAT THE COUNTY IS ROUGH GRADING ONLY. COMMISSIONER SCHMUCKER SUGGESTED THAT THE BOARD JUST INSTRUCT THE ADMINISTRATOR TO PUSH THE PILES OF LIMEROCK DOWN AS THE TRUCKS COME IN, AND THEN DICKERSON CAN COME IN AND FINISH THE JOB, CHAIRMAN VIODTKE STATED THAT HE DID NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH INSTRUCTING ADMINISTRATOR JENNINGS TO GO.UP AND ROUGH GRADE THE LIMEROCK. THE BOARD AGREED THAT THE ADMINISTRATOR SHOULD COOPERATE IN ROUGH GRADING THE LIMEROCK, BUT EMPHASIZED THAT THE COUNTY IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FINE GRADING AND LAYING IN THE ASPHALT. 16
