Mrs. James Clay telephoned to complain about the bike riders using the sewer line property behind the health department to ride their bikes. She asked if they could put up a cable if the area residents purchased it. The Board felt there was too great a chance of injury from a cable; therefore they asked the sheriff to patrol the area more frequently. Attorney Boger recommended that the requested changes by Honeywell in the contract for computer equipment not be accepted. The election in the City of Concord went smoothly and everyone seemed to like the voting machines. This years budget did not include the purchase of voting machines for the remainder of the County, because at budget time the primary was not scheduled until August. The Board wishes to purchase machines for the remainder of the County in time for the primary in May and requested the County Manager make a recommendation as to where the necessary funds ~could come from at the next meeting.
