County to lease interim site for drug and alcohol program
County Commissioners discussed relocating the drug and alcohol abuse unit to a larger interim space near McCurdy Field. Health officials favor a 3,000 square foot Scholl Lane building to consolidate offices, provide more group rooms, parking, and private counseling areas, with leases expiring in 1969 and 1988. The plan aims to support 32 full and part time staff serving about 130 drug and 230 alcohol clients, while awaiting a new health center on Montevue Lane.

Park service to set and raise entrance fees
The National Park Service announced plans to implement entrance fees at 73 parks and monuments starting February 2 and raise fees at 61 additional units. The new charges aim to generate about 4 million dollars annually for research, conservation, and visitor interpretation, with the higher fees largely offsetting Treasury costs. There are 338 units operated, with maximum fees rising to five dollars per vehicle or three dollars for individual walkers, up from the current three-dollar per vehicle cap used only at Yosemite.
