Willis Criticizes State Bus Repair Policy As Unfair
Aiken County interim School Superintendent L L Willis objects to a State Board of Education policy shifting bus repair costs onto districts for driver negligence. Under the plan districts pay up to 100 dollars first offense and 200 dollars second offense, with the state covering beyond that. Willis estimates Aiken costs at 5000 to 6000 dollars annually, arguing many damages arise from uncontrollable vandalism. The policy took effect in 92 districts last September and has shown fall damage reductions, though the state reports declines in October and November.
