KASTER . - _ 't RECORD/ACCOMPLISHMENTS One page fact summaries of Governor Clements' record (negative and positive), accomplishments, or position on each of the following subjects are needed. If necessary, the subjects may be broken down into sub-headings. Wherever possible, please list facts point-by-point leaving out rhetoric. 15. Parks: Anderson Ranch Acquisition Attempt; Franklin Mountains Park, Matagordor, etc. ********** Governor Clements received statewide editorial support in favor of his solution to acquire the Anderson Ranch. Because of the complaints of primarily Peyton McKnight impuninq the honesty of Mr. Anderson, Mr. Anderson withdrew his proposal. The public supported Clements' view and actions. Governor Clements signed the creation of the Franklin Mountains Park even though the legislation was flawed, because the people of El Paso wanted it. Corrective legislation was necessitated in the last session and special session. The pcoplc of El Paso approve of the Park. The Matagorda Island Park is still topic of discussion even though I feel most Texans approve of Texas acquiring the park rather than Washington owning it.
