Horman Proposes Advisory Council For School Costs
County Commissioner Russell Z Horman called for an advisory council to study school construction costs saying the school board now controls expenditures and the commissioners have little leverage. He argues state aid has reduced local influence and proposes early council involvement with architects to set a fixed cost before construction. The move would involve the board, administration, and architects at planning stages.
