About 20 people testified concerning the zoning which covered two separate public hearings. ~ The planning department had recommended public zoning for property on Bennett Street which is now used by the Nevada Union High School District. The recommendation had been made upon the belief that the school district owns the land, which. it actually leases. The department had recommended residential agriculture for the rest of the land on the south side of Bennett Street. Because of the misunderstanding concerning owning and leasing, the planning department will review the area before making recommendations for property now occupied by school offices, a shop and a bus depot. Action upon Litton property near the Loma Rica Industrial Park also was delayed pending further staff consideration. Charles Litton Jr. noted that the proposal for sizeable holdings was residential agriculture on two acre minimums. He said although there are no concrete plans for development there is a strong future possibility of adding it to. the industrial park.
