Mountain and five more miles
of paving for county roads.
“It's going to take me some
time to make up my mind on
that,” the commissioner said
Tuesday. ' ... This 18 80
unreasonable, even the prices
are so out of line. I have aright
to turn them down but I don't
want to turn them down. I'd
rather have the work done but
I've had no earthly chance to
figure it out. I've had some
mighty good arithmetic men
ahold of it and nobody seems
to come up with exactly what
it's going to be because you
can't figure out how much
work it's going to take on a cer
tain area. Another thing, you
cannot figure how much
material it's going to take; they
don’t give the prices, some of
them. None of them gives the
price of materials but one.”
Commissioner Powell said
he received four bids, including
two from Charles E. Watts
Inc., Gadsden, Ala.
It was the second time bids
were to have been opened on
the State Line Road project
and the five miles of county
road resurfacing. The first time
on July 7 the commissioner
decided not to open the bids
and to readvertise. The bids
were received and open last
Thursday morning, including
one Watts bid ang a bid from
A. W. Headrick Construction
Co. that had been submitted
for the first bid opening.
One Watts bi(f listed 5.35
miles of triple surface paving
18 feet wide (County Line
Road). It listed 56,496 sqauare
yards of material at $1.29 per
yard for a total cost of
$72,879.84.
Another Watts bid listed
the same specifications at a
cost of 45 cents per yard with
the total cost being $25,423.20
with the state to furnish
asphalt and stone. That Watts
bid also listed double surface
paving for county roads with
three miles to be 16 feet wide
and two miles to be 14 feet
wide. It called for 44,587
square yards at $1.245 per
yard for a total cost of $55,510.
Preferred Paving, Tunnel
Hill, listed triple surface treat
ment at 64 cents per square
yard and double surface treat
ment at 54 cents per square
yard. The bid said tge contrac
tor would furnish all equip
ment, labor and installation
while preparation work would
be done by others and all
materials would be furnished
by others.
A. W. Headrick Construc
tion Co. listed approximately
10 miles of roadway at $1.67
per square yard for triple sur
face paving and $1.51 per yard
for double surface paving. It
said the contractor would fur
nish materials, labor and equip
ment for the base and applying
the surface treatment. Stone
would be supplied by others,
according to Headrick's bid.

It emanated from Cook
Scrap Metals, East
Washington Street, Wednes
day afternoon as 2,694 cans of
beer and 45.5 gallons of
whiskey were being destroyed.
Chattooga County Sheriff's
Investigator Ron Turner said
the beer and booze was
destroyed after having been
confiscated by authorities over
a several-month period and
held for potential evidence in
criminal cases. When the need
for court purposes had ended,
the alcoholic beverages were
loaded on a truck and carried
to Cook Scrap Metals.

Digest Could Be
Ready In August
The 1986 Chattoog: Coun
ty tax digest should be ready
to present to Commissioner
Harry Powell and the Chat
tooga County Board of Educa
tion by the middle or end of
August, according to Tax Com
missioner Hugh %on Hall.
Hall said name and pro?er
ty changes are now being plac
ed on computer at the office of
Finney and Moore, Rome, and
as soon as computations are
completed, the gigest will be
presented to Powell and the
school board so they may set
their tax rates.
After the rates are set, the
digest will then go to the State
Revenue Department for ap-
Froval. Hall added. He hopes
or state approval by Oct. 1. If
the digest isn't factored (in
creaseg or lowered by the
state), tax bills will 50 out
following approval, Hall said.
The gigest was factored l;fl
15 J)ercent in 1985 and H
said he doesn't expect it to be
factored this year, based on
conversations with state
officials.
He didn't have any
estimates on the likely amount
of growth in this year's digest.
