' OUR VIEWS State should pay for inspections Plymouth-Canton school district officials have worked hard die last few years to improve the qualify of their bus fleet Now, with Gov Jennifer Granholm scrambling to save money everywhere, that reputation may be put to the test The governor wants to eliminate Michigan State Police inspections of local school buses, saving the state $1 3 million in the process That’s all well and good, except that it helps ease the state’s financial woes while putting the safety of our children at risk In Plymouth-Canton alone, some 10,000 students use transportation Distnct officials made sure the buses were increasingly safe, adding a couple of new mechanics when director of transportation Mel Latnie was hired four years ago Plymouth-Canton’s bus fleet received nine red flags - denoting problems severe enough to keep buses off the road - in each of the 2001-02 and 2002-03 school years, mainly because of old buses that had hundreds of thou­ sands of miles on them As a bus replacement program was put in place, the red flags went down There were only two the following year, and four last year, m a fleet of 130 buses Last week, even as the governor was talking about eliminating the program, MSP inspectors were combing the Plymouth-Canton bus fleet In the first 80 vehicles, only one red flag had been found Distnct officials point out Plymouth-Canton drivers do pre-checks every day, but agree the MSP inspections pro­ vide a "great checks and balance” Not only do they provide the inspection, they teach dnvers and mechanics what to look for, making the daily checks that much more thorough Eliminating the MSP inspections would force the dis-' LETTERS tnct to pnvatize the inspections, a costly process for cash- nursing homes are improperly placed, poor districts, or leave the daily checks as the primary Ja c k Gladden will be missed Positives in Iraq, too according to Michigan Department of * inspection mechanism Either way, a distnct struggling to I wanted to take this opportunity to It would be nice to see some positive Community Health reports They don’t provide basic instruction would be hard-pressed to pay congratulate staffwriter Jack Gladden on things about the war m Iraq need 24-hour care at $3,000 to $4,000 for those inspections all his successes with the Observer and to Did you know that 47 countries have per month They can be happier in their Latnie points out the district can’t afford another wish him the best of luck m retirement re-established their embassies m Iraq9 own homes or an assisted setting at less unfunded mandate, and we agree shifting the cost to Whether Mr Gladden was covering the Did you know that the Iraqi govern­ than half that individual distncts would be an unfair tax shift townships planning commission or foe ment employs 12 million Iraqi people?
