Adams
Homer Adams, 53, 205 Timber,
owner of Adams Transfer and
Storage Company. Councilman
five years.
Do you have any specific pro
grams planned as a council
member?
I just want to get these utility con
tracts finalized so that we will be as
sured of an adequate supply of water
in the future and adequate electricity
for our growth.
Are you in favor of extending
liquor hours to 2 a. m. on weekends?
On first impulse, I am against it,
but I will listen to their argument for
it. It appears to me, talking to our
police chief and liquor control mem
bers, that it would cause some
additional problems for them.
Are you in favor of the construc
tion of Millican Dam after the lig
nite coal is mined in the area?
I am in favor of the Millican Dam
in that area.
Should College Station purchase
its utilities from a source other than
Bryan?
We re investigating other sources.
I have no predetermined opinion. I
think we have to do what is best for
College Station.
Why are you running?
I had not intended to run until two
members of the council with unex
pired terms resigned to run for
mayor. This would not leave a whole
lot of continuity on the council which
I think is very important at this time
because of the utility contracts that
are being considered.
Would you like to see College Sta
tion change to a ward system of elec
tion, as proposed in the referendum
on the April 3 ballot?
I would like to see the ward sys
tem. I served under the ward sys
tem. I think it makes the people feel
they have representation from their
area rather than all the councilmen
being from one area.
How do you think the ambulance
service should be handled in
Bryan-College Station?
I think it is being handled the way
it should be handled, by private en
terprise.

Are you satisfied with the en
forcement of existing ordinances?
Do you have any plans for new de
velopmental controls?
I think they are being enforced
pretty well. No, not other than what
is covered in the existing ordinances.

Dominik St., associate director of
Texas A&M University News Ser
vice. Member of city’s recreation
council and the Capital Im
provements Committee.
Do you have any specific pro
grams planned as a council
member?
The city should adopt a policy of
strict adherence to existing zoning
regulations. It’s a matter of keeping
the interest of the individual
homeowner paramount in the minds
of the planning and zoning commis
sion and the city council when zon
ing requests come up. I think too
much consideration has been given
to the requests and so-called needs of
the developers.
Im also in favor of development of
bicycle paths and installation of
sidewalks on major thoroughfares.
The problem here is coming up with
some sort of equitable system of
financing. There should be some sort
of sliding scale in which the more
major the thoroughfare, the larger
the percent of the funds the city
would pay.
Are you in favor of extending
liquor hours to 2 a.m. on weekends?
I don’t really have any strong opin
ion about it one way or the other. I
wouldn’t oppose it.
Are you in favor of the construc
tion of Millican Dam after the lig
nite coal is mined in the area?
Lane Stephenson
I’ve seen so much of both sides, I
don’t have an opinion of it right now.
It’s not something that I have a vital
interest in.
Should College Station purchase
its utilities from another source be
sides Bryan?
It seems to me that the city is
going to have to work toward de
velopment of its own independent
source of supply for these utilities.
We would he better off financially in
the long run to develop our own. The
alternative now appears to he going
with Gulf State’s (a private firm).
Their proposal looks very attractive
in light of what Bryan is proposing.
Why are you running?
The thing that really caused me to
run is zoning. That’s something I feel
very strongly about becaii*-,
