O f Scottville
T o College Board
SCOTTVILLE-Scottvffie City
Manager Gerald Russell met
with representatives of the press
and radio from Mason and Maniste Counties, this morning, to
present the City of Scottville's
most recent offer to the board
of trustees of West Shore Community College.
The offer is i n connection with
city-provided water and sewer
services.
The city has now offered to
extend water and sewer up to
the college site and maintain
water and sewer services, adequate to serve the needs of the
college, at the proposed Site H
(adjacent to Scottville on Johnson Road) at no cost for construction. The college would pay
the same rate as any other user
on the city system.
Russell said the city also
would agree to extend water and
sewer mains and related fixtures, such as fire hydrants,
onto the college property.
The c i t y commission also
agreed to accept annexation of
the college property to the city,
thus enabling the city to provide
such services as are available
under the Home Rule Charter of
Scottville.

However, the city shall not
consider the extension of water
and sewer services to the college contingent to annexation
but would be available in either
case.
During the news conference,
Russell stated that the city
agreed to enter into a written
contract to carry out all of the
above services and upon the advice of legal counsel, has assured the board that the contract would allow the college to
maintain its independence and
that at any time could withdraw
from any or all of these services.
The city council stated, "Any
city would be proud and honored
to have a college associated
with i t . However, aside from
that we sincerely believe that
Scottville is a logical location
and that the Scottville site
would be the most economical to
develop and maintain".
Russell stated that this offer
was made to the college board
at a special executive meeting
Tuesday. Russell said the i n formation was
released this
morning so that a comparison
can be made in relation to
other sites.

                    <text>Site Selection

(Continued from Page 1)
"I feel that this site fills the requirements of the state
board which regulates community colleges," he said.
Draper also noted that in 1967, a report from the state
indicated West Shore Community College should consider a
site with the possible annexation of Lake and Oceana counties
in mind and that the campus should be located close to
Scottville.
On the other hand, Mrs. McCarthy voiced the opinion that,
while the site was "enticing to residents of Mason County,"
it would not be as attractive to Manistee County because of
the location.
"This site has little to offer Manistee residents and
therefore, because this choice limits the college's chances for
success, I'll have to vote no," she said.
In answering questions of those who attended the special
meeting, DeJonge was asked by Scottville City Manager
Gerald Russell how the trustees justified spending money for
water and sewer development when those services had been
offered free by the City of Scottville.
DeJonge pointed out that the productive wells (those to be
used by the students and faculty) will be paid for by Hans
Jensen, one of the owners of the property being purchased.
DeJonge said that Jensen had offered, in writing, to pay the
cost of sinking the wells at points determined by the
architects.
Draper and Raven explained that higher costs at other
sites, such as for road and site development, offset the offer
of water and sewer service.
In summing up the work done by the board prior to
making its final selection, DeJonge said, "To some folks, it
may have seemed to take a long time for the board to make
such a decision. However, this board makes no apology for
the time spent in arriving at a decision.
"The selection of a site involved many things, and it is
highly unlikely that a perfect ideal site can ever be found,
just as it is highly unlikely that all seven members of the
board of trustees could ever agree unanimously on any particular area or site."
