Food stamp ruling would cut benefits nationwide says suit
Weld County Social Services Director Eugene McKenns and Food Stamp Administrator John Nurdahoma lead a coalition challenging new federal rules. The proposed changes would curb eligibility, exclude part time workers, and could affect about five million recipients nationally and roughly one third of non welfare households. State agencies and welfare groups plan to sue to block the regulations with about ten states joining the effort.

District Six may reduce its mill levy for school funding under a proposed bill by Sen. Jne Shoemaker from N Denver. Superintendent Bill Mitchell warns figures are only estimates.

Petitions to challenge Greeley sales tax increase filed
Ogn Danizers, organizer of the referendum drive, said petitions with about 800 signatures were filed with the city clerk. The city charter requires signatures equal to a percent of the last city election, and organizers expect enough valid signatures. City Clerk Lael Wind noted signatures may be checked by next Tuesday’s council meeting, as the sales tax ordinance scheduled for June 1 is suspended pending action. Mayor George Wall and other council members debated a repeal or new election, with some remaining silent on a vote.
