The ctms phone bll begns to soar, t seems mpossble to call ater sx or on weekends. Women on the phone cannot hold a candle to a par o shermen alcted wth steelhead eer.

We elect a person to oce and orget about them untl ther term s up or they hae done somethng wrong whle n oce, A good example s our own townshp and county goernment, The annual meetngs were held a month ago or townshps and ery.ew attendedvsome townshps had only the board members preseht. The County Board o Commssoners are Very cordal and would welcome any ctzen to watch and lsten to, ther board meetngs and also express ther ewponts. Ater all they are workng or us, add dont know oup wshes unless we express them. Ths s the man reason tha,t we are losng our local goernment. When you lose local grass roots control, your oce n goernment wll be ery weak, I belee eeyone should try and attend a board meetng occasonally and our elected ocals are dong well let them know t.

At the tme, the Democrats were careul to "make t perectly clear", that they were callng or "target dates" and not "dead!nes".~the derence apparently beng n the relate leels o enorcement o "target dates,".as opposed to "deadlnes". At the tme we sad, "Oh, what s the derence. Deadlnes or target dates, at least were establshng some type o schedule." And we were pleased that there would.be some type o establshed modus operand,or ths" sesson. It appears} howeer, that we were bengsomewhat oerly optmstc-because seeral o the target dates hae already-been passed,, wthout accomplshment o the goals. By Aprl l,.all appropraton blls were to be reported out o commttee n the house o orgn * (meanng the chamber n whch they were ntroduced.) By Aprl, all Appropraton blls were to be completed n the house o orgn. By May 3, all blls (meanng those on whch we hope to act ths sprng) were to be completed by the House o orgn. The rst two hae passed wth no appropraton blls yet out o commttee n ether house and, there s scant hope o meetng the May 3rd goal. We wll probably be lucky to hae all appropraton blls reported out o commttee by May st, makng the target date o completon by June 4 look more and more mprobable. The week o sesson just prequs to Easter-was a good example o why these target dates are not beng met. The Democratc majorty chose to lay oer, hold up, or reuse to take any acton at all on seeral mportant peces, o Jegslaton, especally campagn reorm and tax rele* Tte mportant pont.ls.j.lhoweer,; not that Republcans hae been "oled agan" n ther attempts to brng about the establshment o deadlnes and legslate schedules, but that means that many ery mportant peces o legslaton wll not be completed ths sprng; and the chances o them beng dealt wth next all durng a "lame duck" sesson are extremely poor. Obously, Gowawnorc; Add color and grace to any subject. Ask us or a Stylelne" phone. GEIERAL TELEPHOIE Report by Stanley Powell State Representate.the people o ths state, not the Mchgan Legslature, are the losers on ths one. Legslators, get "pad whether or not they pass any blls at all. But whle the Democratc leadershp s busy holdng up progress wth ther attempts ^ to kll -meanngul campagn reorm, and ther eorts to nd some way to-make tax rele look lke ther dea, rather than that ota Republcan Goernor, many other mportant- peces o legslaton are gong to be dropped by the waysde. CERTAIN BILLS NEED TO PASS BEFORE BUDGET Another actor that wll sere to.slow up progress s that there are certan blls wth budgetary.mplcatons whch need to be completed beore nal approal can be gen to the budget. O prmary mportance among these blls js H.B. 4208, whch the Democratc majorty reused to consder beore Easter, to prode some tax, rele or busnesses by ncreasng the nentory tax credt,, and to ndduals by prodng an ncome tax credt or some o the state sales tax pad by lower ncome persons. Obously, passage o ths bll wll aect the reenue outlook, and whle ts passage was gured nto Goernor Mllkens budget proposals, there are some who would apparently lke to use the aalable money to bee up certan present state programs, such as welare. A determnaton on whether ths money wll be n the hands o the state* or the states ctzens s -necessary or responsble acton on budget blls. Another bll, whch we hae dscussed beore, that could hae reenue and budgetary mplcatons s H.B. 4244, the socalled greenbelt bll. It would permt landowners to enter nto a deelopment rghts agreement wth the state n exchange or a credt on ther state ncome tax. Ths bll was.reerred to a conerence commttee or a compromse r. between the Senate and House ersons. Ther Sport *Vss redy tobe.oh^dbredbejde Easter but the Democratc loor leader had acuon"postponed.

Ths bll/s the rst step n what wll probably,, ultmately, be a complete state. take-oer o the nancng o all state courts. Presently, all but the State Supreme Court are nanced, by a combnaton o state ancl local unds, whch s consdered by many to be" unnecessary and mproper dran on local budgets, as well as an necent means o nancng our state court systems. t- THE ESTABLISHMENT o an economc deelopment authorty has been a prme goal o the economc deelopment package proposed by House Republcans last year. The bll whch would accomplsh ths, H.B. 4786, has not yet let the House Commttee on Economc Deelopment where t was assgned last year. Yet ths bll s probably one o the states most crtcal^ needs at ths juncture, as a means o promotng the deelopment o busness and employment - opportuntes. I ths authorty s to be establshed durng the comng scal year, the unds must be proded or h ths budget.
