Commissioner Nelson claims that
Partlow told him that most of the
residents were in favor of lower-
ing the streel and were aware
that it would not be repaved.
Several of the petition signers
said that they intend hiring a law-
yer Monday to represent them
and that they also intend appear-
ing before the County Commis-
sioners.
Nelson said that the county has
no policy for property assessment
in which property owners share
in the cost of the street construc-
tion. as was done by the City of
Abilene when the section of Grape
St. within the city limits was
paved and widened.
‘‘I have recommended to the
residents of North Park that if
they want the convenience of the
city streets and drainage, they
should become part of the city,”
said the commissioner.
The lowering of the road, ac-
cording to Nelson, will allow wa-
ter to drain off, but residents fear
that the paving and lowering of
the seclion of the street within
the city will cause the water to
drain onto their property.
Nelson said that in addition to
lowering the road from Huckle-
berry and Texas sts., large drain-
age ditches have been provided

rector of the Texas Election Bu-
reau Saturday.
The action came after the di-

ing the number of directors from
8 to 9.
The bureau, which gathers and
tabulates election results in the
state, is composed of newspapers,
radio and television stations.
Plans for the coverage of the
June 2 runoff election were out-
