that no final decisions be made regarding the closing of schools until there has
been opportunity for timely reaction by concerned taxpayers.

a 2 -month period in the fall and shorter period in the spring semester.
Mr. Bacon demonstrated one of the light fixtures to be used, a metal Halide directed
beam unit.
Questions were raised relative to noise levels, use as a band practice area,
