The Piedmont Technical Edu cation Commision is provided for in the bUl “for the creation, maintenance and operation of a technical education center to be located within the district.” The bill makes clear that par ticipation as a member of the Commission “shall not be deem ed to obligate any county to participate and share in the cost of construction of the center, and any such county may withdraw from participation at its discre tion, and he deleted from in clusion within the district by amendment to this act.” The bill thus creates the dis trict and the commission hut without necessary funds for ope ration of a technical education center. It is an attempt to further the effort which has been going on for some time to get the seven counties together so that a TEC can be provided for the people of the area. Cost of construction of the cen ter, the bill provides, “shall be borne by the participating coun ties according to a formula to be arrived at and agreed to in writing by the legislative dele gations and governing bodies of each respective county anH sub sequently affirmed by legislative act.” Such a commission, by law, must consist of nin» nu«nbtrs The bffi provides that bhwBw shall be elected by a majority of the legislative delegations, including the senators of the respective counties, with one Big Boy Tomato Plants 15c (In Jiffy pats) Double Petunia Plants Dosen Lit Geranium and Begonia Cuts 20c and up Snapdragon Plants, IBxed Colars 1.00 per dm.
