On the ballot, voters are asked to vote either for or against issuing up to $20.4 million in bonds to pay for the expansion. But there is a lot more that it doesn't say and City officials have been trying to reach voters to let them know what's going on; the Committee of the Islands pitched in by organizing the forum Tuesday evening. On the island's first mail-iri ballot, voters "will be voting on the largest bond issue ever suggested for the city," said COTI President Armand Ball. The vote, he emphasized, EXQUISITE WATERFRONT "is not a question of whether we have the sewer system or not.... That has already been Almost2acresofpristinebeautyonRooseveltCluin- nDitTATP approved by the City. The question is how we will pay for it."

It wasn't until 1991, though, when the City bought the Donax wastewater treatment plant, SAFE HAVEN that it started taking steps.

Why is central sewer necessary? Because the state requires septic systems to be a MARSHA CLIFFORD Sanibel, FL 33957 minimum of two feet above the ground water.

The island's condominiums and most of the commercial areas are now on sewer, Price said, and a lot of money has been spent upgrading the Donax plant. A1994 master plan outlined the goal to sewer the entire island in three phases over the next 15 years. As City officials worked on the first phase, though, Council decided last year to accelerate the project so it would be completely done in five to six years. The $20.4 million bond issue includes several aspects, Mills said. The entire project — all three phases — is estimated at $26 million. Half of that will be paid by the property owners who are directly affected by the expansion through property assessments, which are estimated to average $5,000. They can pay that in either a lump sum or, tentatively, in low-interest payments over up to 20 years. The City plans to foot the other half of that $26 million bill through a state loan with an interest rate of 3.2 percent. In addition, another $7.4 million has been added to the proposed bond issue to cover improvements to the Donax plant and other existing sewer facilities. That $13 million plus $7.4 million is where the $20.4 million comes from. Add the other $13 million that property owners will pay and you get the total projected cost of the project — $33 million, which includes about 20 percent worth of contingencies, Mills said. The City will need $1.6 million per year to cover its annual debt, Mills said, and how that will be paid is what voters will be deciding.

They will have an opportu- nity to vote in the first mail-ballot election on Sani- bel for the largest bond issue ever proposed for the City. _.;=^, Unfortunately, the ballot for this election can- not clearly delineate the issue at hand. The ballot gives the voter the opportunity to vote yes or no for "Ttreissnance of bonds to pay for the public portion—[ - of the sewer expansion and upgrade. It cannot and does not indicate that the sewer expansion and up- grade will occur with or without the approval of bonds on this ballot. ... -.....'..... The City Council has already approved the overall plan for the sewer expansion and upgrade and given the voters of the City the opportunity to choose between two meth- ods of paying for the public portion of the sewer: ad valorem (property) taxes or a utility tax. The Council has approved a utility tax to go into effect July 1, 1998, on electric gas, water, and in-state telecommunications if the bond issue does not pass. In addition, the user fees for the sewer service will have to increase to make up the difference between the utility tax revenue and the cost of the sewer. Both the ad valorem tax and the utility tax are to expire upon the completion of the sewer. So, the vote you will cast by mail is not on whether we expand the sewer or not, but on how you choose to pay for the public portion of its cost — by means of ad valorem taxes or with utility taxes. In either case, the citizen will share in the public cost and, if the home owner does not have sewer service currently, pay for the hook-up.

About Yevgen Prokopov The following biographical material on Yevgen Prokopov will give you a brief look at his background and may help in your understanding of this artist and his work. He received a classical art education, afforded only to the most gifted artists in the former Soviet Union. He graduated from two of the Soviet's high- est order institutions; the Academy of Fine Arts of Kiev and the USSR Academy of Arts. Fortunately for this masterful sculp- tor, his primary artistic development took place largely during perestroika, a time of liberalization in the Soviet Union. This allowed him more creative freedom from the forced social realism style which was strongly recommended by the Commu- nists. Prokopov's sculptures are noted for their artistic impression and emotional impact. He has the uncanny ability to ren- Yevgen Prokopov By FRANK WAGNER der in bronze and stone many rich tex- ternational Development Consultants. tures, colors and pictorial surface details that have much in common with the Islander staff writer techniques used in medieval icon painting.

By Candace Havens Soap Talk ©TVData Features Syndicate Dear Candace: I think the actress who plays Sharon in The Young and the Restless is so pretty. She really has that girl-next-door quality. I was wondering what other shows she has been on. I've seen her on a prime-time program. I'd appreciate anything you could tell me about her. — J.B. in Virginia Dear Reader: Sharon Case (Sharon) played Debbie on As the World Turns, Dawn on General Hospital and Anne in Valley of the Dolls. She also has made guest appearances on Cheers, Silk Stalkings, Parker Lewis Can't Los,. Beverly Hills, 90210 and Doogie Howser, M.D. Case was born in Detroit and grew up in Chatsworth, Calif. She has received two Emmy nominations for outstanding younger leading actress. Dear Candace: I have watched As the World Turns for more than 15 years, and the show that aired on Dec. 11 v 1997;r undoubtedly-was one of the finest! have seen. It had clips from shows from the good old days. In recent years, the writers have brought in young, shallow characters to fill up time, which has left the really good characters, such as Kim, Nancy, Susan and Bob (Kathryn Hays, Helen Wagner, Marie Masters, Don Hastings) with nothing to do. But the worst part is the story line involving Lily, Holden and Molly (Martha Byrne, Jon Hensley, Lesli Kay Sterling). It has been so disappointing. This show needs more moral lessons and less shenanigans from characters. — Mrs. Bruce Hunt, Kirksville, Mo. Dear Reader: By the time you read this, Holden and Lily will be married, but they won't be together. And unfortunately, it doesn't appear as if Molly is going anywhere any time soon. ._ _
