Now or Never On Squaw Creek Lake Dam Plan
Linn county conservation board chair Tom Neenan told supervisors that if dam construction at Squaw Creek park is not started next year the project will be thrown out due to rising costs. A proposed budget by executive director George Hamilton would use 250000 in federal revenue sharing funds, with costs rising from 165000 to 500000 between 1965 and 1969. A meeting with engineers is set for next Monday to discuss dam cost and lake plans, including acquiring 20 acres of land.
