1990, from their funding source, Region X, Head Start, stating that immediate
funding was not available for the purchase of a modular classroom, postponing
their January 1, 1991 start date.
Ms. Douglas said she would like to clarify points made in the article in the
October 3, 1990, Central Valley News, reported by Mike Kotlan. She said that
she did not perceive a commission decision on the Conditional Use Permit as
meaningless. That Southern Headstart probably won't get the money they
