LIGHTING: Physical Plant makes
improvements to parking areas
Continued from Page 1
Lighting installation is cur
rently in progress for parking
lot 63, by Olsen Field, and lot
5, behind the Blocker Building,
Schneider said.
Adding lighting in seven
parking areas on West Cam
pus, near the Southside halls
and near Kyle Field is next on
the list of improvements.
Schneider said that in the
future the committee will con
tinue to target parking lots
near residence halls, build
ings on West Campus and
Research Park.
“We have earmarked 26 oth
er locations that may need ad
ditional lighting,” he said.
He added that a consultant
will be hired for $25,000 to look
at the 26 areas and the rest of
campus to detennine where ad
ditional lighting is needed.
Schneider said the commit
tee is taking a proactive ap
proach by improving lighting
for all the areas on campus
that need it, rather than just a
few areas.
“We’ll do it now as a compre
hensive lighting program to
complete these projects once
and for all,” he said.
Leslie Swick, the Physical
Plant’s assistant director of re
source management, said the
approximate cost of the ap
proved lighting installations is
$350,000.
Funding for this lighting
comes from the Parking Tran
sit and Traffic System, and was
approved by Dr. Jerry Gaston,
interim vice president for fi
nance and administration.
Sgt. Betty Lemay, of the UP-
D’s Crime Prevention Unit,
said additional lighting will
help, but that people should
still be cautious.
“Lighting is the least ex
pensive and most effective
means of crime prevention,”
she said. “However, crime can
happen any place and any
time. Don’t get a false sense of
security just because an area
has good lighting.”
Clinton proposes his
own balanced budget
to $10,000 a year in college tuition.
Clinton's second budget of the year
represented substantial political risk,
threatening to alienate some important
Democratic constituencies such as the
elderly with its deep proposed cuts in
domestic programs.
Texans make final pitch
for bases on closure list
WASHINGTON (AP) — After
months of being pounded by Republi
cans, President Clinton weighed in
Tuesday with his own proposal to bal
ance the federal budget in 10 years.
"Everybody has to give a little," his
spokesman said.
Clinton was outlining his plan in a
brief address carried on the major
broadcast networks.
His proposal would make $130 bil
lion in Medicare cuts over the period,
about half of that sought by Republi
cans, and trim $25 billion from current
subsidies and tax breaks enjoyed by cor
porations, according to a White House
summary distributed on Capitol Hill.
The summary was obtained by The
Associated Press.
The document also showed that,
despite earlier consideration of scaling
back his proposed middle-class tax
cut, the president was sticking to his
full tax-cut proposal.
That plan, worth $60 billion in the
first five years, calls for a $500 per
child tax break and allows families
earning under $100,000 to deduct up
Bush signs welfare^
medicaid bills
AUSTIN (AP) — Needy Texans face
new limits on welfare benefits, parents
who don't pay child support can lose
state licenses and some ex-spouses can
get alimony under a bill signed into law
Tuesday by Gov. George W. Bush.
But the new law — which also re
quires welfare recipients to work or
study and to agree to abide by certain
requirements in return for benefits —
still needs some finishing touches.
Bush said the state must ask the fed
eral government for 27 waivers from
rules to fully implement the measure.
Federal approval isn't expected until
next year, he said.
Provisions requiring a federal OK
include a requirement for welfare
mothers to identify the fathers of chil
dren receiving benefits and a three-
year maximum limit on benefits.
Also Tuesday, Bush signed a bill to
restructure the state's Medicaid system to
allow it to attract more federal matching
dollars and encourage more preventive
medicine in the health-care
WASHINGTON (AP) — With the fi
nal verdict on base closings drawing
near, Texas lawmakers have made their
last public pitches to save eight Texas
defense installations from the base
closing commission's hit list.
Republican Sens. Phil Gramm and
Kay Bailey Hutchison, joined by 1 2
House members, appeared Tuesday be
fore the Defense Base Closure and Re
alignment Commission to argue the
Texas case. The testimony marked the
final public input by the Texans, who
will continue to lobby the commission
ers privately up until the last minute.
The congressionally mandated
commission will vote next week on
which of 178 candidate bases nation
wide should be closed or realigned.
By July 1, the commission must for
ward its recommendations to Presi
dent Clinton and Capitol Hill.
Congress must approve or reject the
panel's recommendations in their en
tirety, without change.
