Mr. Edward Paj ala, Clerk
Bayf field County
Washburn, Wisconsin 54891
Dear Mr. Pajala:
I would like to have you present the following matter to the County Board of Bay -
field County, for consideration.
In 1965, the Wisconsin Legislature enacted a law (Chapter 292) which provides for
the organization of the State of Wisconsin into area vocational, technical and adult
education districts by July 1, 1970.
tl
Tentative plans are being drawn up to divide the state into areas, each of which
would have an area vocational school. The manner in which the plans are now set up,
this whole upper northern part of the state would be in a district with the vocational
school at Superior being designated as the state oriented school. We believe that
because of the distance from Superior, Ashland would be more logically suited to serve
Bayfield, Ashland and Iron Counties and possibly other territory to the south of use
We are currently engaged in putting together a brief to present to the Federal
Government for a grant to build an adequate vocational school to serve the needs of the
youth and adults of this area. Such a school would be an economic asset to this area.
What I am asking you to consider involves no committment of any kind. It merely
establishes your preference as to the vocational school district you would like to be
in. It is quite possible that the State Board of Vocational, Technical and Adult
Education will not go along with it and not give you a choice, but in any case, you
can indicate a preference. I believe that it would be to our mutual benefit to be in
a district located so that our needs could be met more efficiently and the service to
the area enlarged.
I have enclosed a resolution for your use if you so desire.
I am sorry that I cannot be at your meeting, since I will'be attending a meeting
in Milwaukee.
Please give this matter your careful consideration.
Yours truly
R. Bonacci, Director
Moved by Sampson and seconded by Art Hanson to receive the foregoing communica-
