Dayton Voters
Defeat School
Budget Levy
In a light turnout, voters bf the
Dayton School District turned down
a proposed operating budget levy
in Tuesday's election. A vote of 278
to 190 defeated the budget which
was $328,430 outside the six per-
cent limitation.
As of press time, the Dayton
school board and budget committee
had not yet met to discuss the levy
defeat. Next possible date to vote
on a proposed levy for the 1979-80
school year will be May 22.
For position No. 3 on the Dayton
school board Vyrle Owens was
elected with 182 votes. Also run-
ning for that position was Henry
Evers who had 161 votes and Ron
VanNoy who received 157.
For position 5 on the board of
directors James C. Shelburne de-
feated Ramon Gonzales, by a vote
of 381 to 117.
Elected director in Zone 4 for the
Yamhill Education Service District
was Ann E. Evers who received 395
votes. Phil Olson received 381
votes for that position. Director-at-
large elected was Kenneth N.
Knutson, who defeated Elmer
Fricke. Fricke received 1,275 votes
to incumbent Knutson's 1,901.
All three races for director on the
Dayton Rural Fire Protection Dis-
trict Board were unopposed. Don
Youngblood, position 1, received
267 votes; Francis L. Patterson,
position 4, received 231 votes; and
Roy Dundas, Jr position 5, re-
ceived 237 votes.
In the Dundee Rural Fire Pro-
tection District, Charles Beers was
unopposed for director, position 1.
There were no filings for positions

New Half-Million
For Lafayette Aim
Lafayette City Council heard an
unusual request at its regular
meeting Wednesday evening.
Mr. Landesman of Sheridan had
asked if he could raise gold fish for
experimental and commercial uses
in the city's polishing ponds of the
sewer treatment complex. After
discussing possible results if the
fish, which are a type of carp, got
into the river, the Council denied
the request.
Councilman Lotis Hanks report-
ed that the city's new reservoir will
be hooked in at 1 am Saturday
morning. Water to the community
will be off for approximately three
hours and nearby communities will
be asked to have fire equipment on
standby during the time the water
is shut off. When the reservoir is
hooked into the system, a cleaning
and chlorinating process will begin.
The new reservoir will hold 500,000
gallons. It is adjacent to the present
100,000 gallon reservoir in the city-
owned watershed.
During discussion of water
quantities with the city engineer,
the council decided to limit the re-
maining hookups to individual
property owners. Based on present
usage and estimated flows, the city
has available 48, more water hook-
ups. A new well in the city park was
also discussed and will be studied
further to see if a new one can be
drilled there.
Clifford Brotherton and Ray
Lynch appeared before the Council
seeking clarification of the zoning
ordinance pertaining to the com-
mercial zone. Dave Bishop of the
Yamhill County Planning Depart-
ment outlined a possible contract
between the city and county to con-
tinue planning for the community.

Bunn, the city's municipal judge.

state Ethics Commission, Mr.
Bunn can no longer act as the city's
judge. His associate, attorney Car-
ol Smoots, will replace him as
judge.
A lengthy discussion was held
concerning costs involved in up-
dating a sewer lift station to ac-
comodate the new school and the
proposed mobile home court on
99W, as well as other development
in the surrounding area.
Mike Henry presented alternate
plans involving a collector pipe but
because of the great cost, the
update of the lift station was
approved.
Employment of a new public
works superintendent was dis-
cussed but no action wa taken.

City Council
cussed a possible contract between
the city and the county for next
year's planning. The council de-
cided against making a contract,
because of the delay in new build-
ing in the city due to the mora-
torium on sewer hookups.
Mike Henry, city engineer, gave
the Council an update on possible
federal funding for the sewer la-
goon expansion, but funding for
this year from the Department of
Environmental Quality looks dim.
At present levels, only 30 cities
will receive funds for sewer ex-
pansion projects and Dayton is
34th on the present priority list. A
moratorium on sewer hookups was
made last fall, until the sewer
expansion project could be funded.
A bond issue by city residents has
alreatt) been passed and expansion
plans ow depend on a grant from
DEQ.
Mrs. Don Clevenger was granted
a variance for a cyclone fence over
the 3-foot designated height on 7th
and Main.
The Council also approved an
ordinance allowing use of revenue
sharing funds.
A letter from the Lafayette City
Council asking about the possibility
of sharing a public works super-
intendent was tabled by the council
with no action taken.
