All of the approximately 65 food service employes are eligible to vote. Food service employes Tract proposal The city planning commission decided Monday to lay over the proposed annexation of an eight-acre industrial tract north of the city, because the annexation would create a town "island" entirely surrounded by city land.

The land proposed for annexation is immediately south of the Chicago and North Western railroad tracks and extends from North Main to Jackson Streets. The land adjoins the city's north side industrial park and Jansen wants his land to be zoned M-3 heavy industrial. City Mgr. Gordon Jaeger said he is concerned because presently aren't represented by any bargaining unit. Some of them indicated earlier they would like to join the 1 Employes Association, which represents custodial, maintenance, clerical, and auxiliary service employes of the public schools.

The public hearing in January at Winnebago County Courthouse was held on the petition of Mrs. Jacqueline T. Burns, 1715 Southland for clarification of the bargaining unit. A contract between the board and NTEA has already been negotiated, effective through Dec. 31, 1976.

annexation delayed the Jansen annexation would create another island to the northwest of the Jansen property. The commission decided to postpone action on the Jansen petition so a new annexation petition initiated by the city could be prepared. City Atty. John Pence advised the commission that the city could annex the Jansen property and also force the annexation of the island with an amended petition. The construction of an industrial building, which would be used for a new site for Stationers, Inc.

of Neenah, has already been started on the Jansen property.

Housing authority endorses fund plea The Oshkosh housing au- and Urban Development thority voted Monday to endorse a request by Madsen Development Corp.

for an increase in the federal contribution for the operating costs of the housing which Madsen built for the authority. A Madsen executive, Gordon Kowing, explained to the authority that because of the sharp increases in rates for electric and sewerage utility service in Oshkosh during the past year, Madsen has been earning much less on its investment than it had estimated. Kowing said Madsen's return on its investment has been only about 2 per cent, compared with the 6 per cent return which it is aiming for. Madsen wants the amount allowed for utility expenses in Madsen's annual contributions contract with the federal Department. of Housing (HUD) to be increased.

Kowing said he has been advised unofficially by HUD officials that HUD will allow the increase. The 157-unit Court Tower housing for the elderly apartment building and 30 units for low-income families were built by Madsen through a lease arrangement under which Madsen retains the ownership of the buildings.
