underway in two weeks. He was
not able to say at this time
where the work will commence
in Lynnhaven subdivision.
Bob Coen, city public works
director, said the city wishes to
assist in making the project
work as smoothly as possible.
“It will be our desire to assist
and make this project as
smooth as possible and to
respond to needs on a rapid
basis.”
Coen said the city will estab-
lish inspection procedures at a
pre-construction conference. T.
B. Hargrove Jr. will serve as
project manager for the city.
Coen asked Mercer to submit
a construction schedule with a
work sequence plan and an
anticipated start date as soon
as possible.
The project will be divided
into two phases. The cost of the
work will be $198,478.75. In
awarding the contract to Mer-
cer, the council made a stipula-
tion that $10,215 may be added
to the construction cost at a
later date based on quantities
of supplies the city is aware of.
Mercer’s bid whs ode of three
opened on July 5. The other bid-
ders included McKinney Con-
struction Co., that offered to do
the work for $309,861.50; and

also decided to allow Texans ti
vote on creating a state lottery.
Bullock said he likely would
vote against the proposal.
“It’s one thing for govern-
ment to sanction gambling, blit
this time we’re going a step
further. The state of Texas te
now in gambling" with a lottery,
Bullock said. ... .
The “one bright spot” from
the recent budget session was h
revision of the franchise tex to
include a levy on corporate pro-
fits, he said. Bullock has
pushed for a state corporate
and personal income tax.
The franchise tax change
would require corporations Bo
pay a tax on capital assets or*
profits, whichever is higher.
But a number of Republicans
called the two-year budget
excessive and criticized the
franchise tax change.
Rep. Talmadge Heflin, R-
Houston, said the budget “pre-
sents great danger of a personal
income tax before the end of
the biennium."
“There was a better way,"
said Rep. Tom Craddick of Mid-
land, head of the House Repu-
blican Caucus.
Craddick said that less than
$600 million of about $12 tril-
lion in spending cuts recom-
mended by State Comptroller
John Sharp were Implemented •
Sharp’s office estimated the
number could be between $600
million and $900 million. :
The Republican Cauciis
itself proposed $6 billion In
spending cuts, Craddick said.
“We felt our proposals were
sound, innovative and a con-
structive contribution to the
search for a new approach jo

dick said.
