County Board Of Education Approves Budget
The Palo Alto County Board of Education approved a tentative budget for 1972 with expenditures of 199 375 and a tax asking of 68 000, both down from last year. The reduction stems from federal funds for special education, consolidation of a speech therapy program, and use of an unencumbered balance. A hearing is set for July 26, 1971 at 8:00 PM. A separate notice: Upper Des Moines Opportunity Inc. received a 32 000 OEO family planning and health services grant valid July 1, 1971 to February 28, 1972 across nine counties including Palo Alto. A Registered Nurse will coordinate the program with county health services.
