Trustees Delay Step To Annex Campus To City
The Southern Illinois University board postponed action on annexing most of the Carbondale campus to the city. Annexation hinges on the city adopting a zoning plan for outside limits. City officials seek the tax share from campus sales, varying estimates from $60,000 to $80,000 yearly, while university figures suggest only about $4,000 for 1963-64 from the University Center.
