Gary Welch, a Nebraska assistant attorney general, said
the Department of Roads computer fabricated over 2,000
routes for the bypass. But after reviewing the routes, four
were picked as having the least social, environmental and
financial problems.
The four routes as described in Urbom's decision are:
- The route approved by Urbom or the East Line,
which would go north from U.S. Highway 77 where it
bends east just south of town. The West Bypass would
bend to the northwest just north of Van Dorn Street,
shave off about six acres of the west edge of Wilderness
Park just south of Van Dorn Street. Although earlier
statements said an additional 20 acres of Wilderness Park
would be taken at the point where the bypass intersects
U.S. Highway 77, the design has since been changed to
miss Wilderness Park at that point.
The Hast Line would intersect Van Dorn at about
Folsom Street, bend to the northwest crossing the Bur
lington railroad tracks south of O Street at the Codding
ton Bridge and tie into Interstate 80 near N.W. 27th
Street.
West Line
- The West Line would branch off UJS. Highway 77 at
about Old Cheney Road, move northwest across Folsom
Street and Pioneers Boulevard, go nearly straight north
across Calvert Street, through Regional Center property,
across Van Dorn, then angle northeast across South Street
and join the apporved route just south of South Street.
- The Southwest Sixth Street alternative would be
similar to the approved route. However, where it shaves
off a protion of Wilderness Park, the roadway would be
moved slightly west to a point on the border of the park
or just west of the park.
The East of Salt Creek alternative would intersect
UJS. Highway 77 at an existing junction just south of Old
Cheney Road and proceed north along Salt Creek, inter
secting the approved route between Van Dom and A
Streets.
Urbom wrote in his decision that the West Line was
not acceptable because it ran through the State Regional
Center and the Regional Center administrators expressed
concern about the noise and safety factors.
Increase travel time
Also, he wrote, the West Line would increase travel
time, increase the cost of the roadway, split the Yankee
Hill School District, damage aesthetic amenities of Pio
neers Park and encounter design problems at an inter
change and a railroad crossing.
The Southwest Sixth Street alternatives, of which there
are two, would move the roadway to a point west, which
would put the right-of-way partly in and partly out of
Wilderness Park, or would move the highway beyond the
west boundary of Wilderness Park.
The first version, Urbom wrote, would take 17 single
family dwellings, two duplexes and one commercial stor
age facility. The later version would remove 30 houses,
two duplexes and two commercial establishments.
"Substantial sociological impact of the former (the
Sixth Street alternatives) is obvious," he wrote.
About the East of Salt Creek alternative, Urbom wrote,
"The rapidly developing residential area, Salt Valley View,
located west of 14th Street and north of Old Cheney
Road, together with the extensive complex of railroad
tracks to the north make this alternative highly expensive.
In addition, Sawyer Snell Park, Sherman Field and Van
Dorn Park lie to the north between 1st and 11th streets
making this an undesirable location since the damage to
developed park land would be extensive."
Contributions to PACE fund decline;
scholarship office to publicize project
By Jeff Goodwin
To boost low contributions to the university's PACE
program, the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aids
plans to publicize the program when tuition statements
are sent out second semester.
Debra Lasich, assistant director of the Office of Schol
arships and Financial Aids, said lack of information is
probably one reason contributions have fallen off.
"Students just aren't willing to contribute $3.50 to
something they know nothing about," Lasich said.
PACE, which stands for Plan Assuring College Educa
tion, is a program where students can check a box on their
tuition statements, donating $3.50 to the program.
The money goes to help students who need financial
aid. Only students who have filed a Financial Aid Form
with the financial aids office are eligible.
The first year PACE went into effect, the 1971-72
school year, contributions were an all-time high of
$52,535. Since then contributions have dropped consist
ently and averaged between $8,000 and $9,000 during the
last three years.
In the 1980-81 school year, $20,750 was awarded to
74 students, according to the financial aids office. The
average is $280 per student.
Lasich said only $8,034 was collected last year, but
money left over from previous years was distributed, ac
counting for the $20,750 figure.
'if a student drops out, the money he would have re
ceived is carried over to the next year," Lasich said.
Lasich said PACE would survive despite its dwindling
revenue.
"I don't see it dying out," Lasich said. "We have to
make students more aware of what they're contributing
to. Most students are not sure of what PACE is."
Lasich said the financial aids office plans to work with
ASUN to publicize the PACE program.
Lasich said another possible reason for the decline of
PACE funds is the added hardship students are facing.
"1 think a lot of them aren't contributing because
they can't," Lasich said.
