COUNTY MONITOR Planning Needed For Mobile Parks FINAL OF THREE ARTICLES By Tilly Hoagland Nevada County agencies have’ encouraged the development of good mobile home parks where an effort is made to landscape the property, and provide high quality services for the renters, but there are presently only 17 parks in the unincorporated areas of the county and nine of these are in the Truckee area. The Truckee building flurry came mainly between 1956-1959 during freeway construction, the building of Squaw Valley and the subsequent Olympics held there. Only eight parks exist in the unincorporated Grass Valley-N evada City area with a few more units available within the cities where city ordinances forbid trailer parking except in mobile home parks. In 1961, the County Planning Commission issued only one use permit for construction of a mobile parkhome, which was never built. In 1962 five permits were issued and not one park was con~ structed. (Continued on Page 18) Nevada County Supervisors Approve Record Budget Nevada County Supervisors Monday approved a record 196465 preliminary budget of $5,005, 256. The new budget of $5,005, 256 compares with a 1963-64 total of $4, 195, 285. A total of $3,388,502 will be received from outside sources other than property taxes. This leaves a balance of $1,616,753 -to be raised by taxes. Fhe total to be raised by taxes in the 196364 budget was $1, 164, 273.70.

Nugget Publisher ‘Receives Highway Commission Post Governor Edmund G, Brown Monday appointed Alfred Heller, 35 -year-old publisher of the Nevada County Nugget to the Highway Commission‘to succeed Arthur T. Luddy of Sacramento. "At the recent Conference of Governors in §an Francisco, the distinguished economist John the commission recommended to the board of supervisors by a 4-3 vote that the private, substandard roads of Lazy Valley be excepted fromthe require ments of the county's present subdivision ordinance, to protect a “substantial property right" of the subdivider, The commission found alsothat it would be impractical for the -subdivider to give to the county clear title to the roads in his development, due to the fact that many lots extending to the center line of the roads have been sold. School Budget Hearing Set For August Nevada City School Board Monday night approved a budget of $324, 000; down $4, 200 from the preliminary budget. The decrease in the budget was madeat the suggestion of Superintendent Edward Browning who told the board he had lowered the estimated income from the se~cured tax rolls on the recom~ mendation of the county superintendent. The move was made because it was felt there might be.a slightly higher rate of delinquency on the taxes this year. The trustees set the public hear~ing on the budget for 8 p.m. August 3 in the elementary school. Bids were opened on reroofing of twosections-of the elementary school, Frontier-Roofing of Grass Valley bid $4,600 and Yancy Company of Sacramento bid $4,724. Both bids were higher than the amount budgeted for the job, but the board agreed to accept Frontier's bid and only do one section of the job, The cost will be about $2,500. The trustees hired two new up to county standards which were in effect at the time the subdivision was developed, provided that the land owners collect all deeds tothe road right of ways and collect enough money to bring the roads upto whatever higher standards are required by the county. submitted to it by Todd.
