Discussion of federal highway program funding and a letter from Governor Patterson prompts a motion to respond. A lighting upgrade for Millington intersection is slated, while Coquille Plywood mill access remains deemed adequate for now. A timber party for state legislators is set for April 15, and a highway meeting in Corvallis reports on a billion dollar federal program directing 33 million to city and county roads.
