Control Ideas..Local Story.. Hidden Wire..Horrible Haven It ‘was interesting to note last week that the idea of the need for architectural regulation and the dangers of waiting to do something about it are finally getting through to the Nevada City Council. For the first time in many months-a document was put on the council table which incorporated many of the ideas and — concepts that will be needed in an ordinance to protect, preserve and enhance the city's historic atmosphere and heritage. Strangely enough, these ideas were not contained in an ordinance, butin the partial draft of a lease between the city and the Nevada Company for the use of Ott's Assay Office building for a new post office facility. Regulation of signs in regard to number, size, material, location, projection into the street and illumination, landscaping of the building and-restoration and maintenance ofthe structure were all incorporated into the lease. Councilman Marshall Jensen remarked that the lease contained the basis for the beginnings of a good historical architectural control ordinance and if the city had had such an ordinance in force, he and Councilman Bob Paine would not have had to practically beg Standard and Shell Oil Companies to bring the design of their two new gas_ stations into conformance and harmony with the surrounding buildings in the city, f esses The Northern Mines communities received a big plug in the May -June edition of the magazine “California Highway and Public works,” A picture of Broad Street in Nevada City during the July 4th parade and a picture of Nevada City sculptor, Norman Grag are included in the five page spread on Highway 49 towns, “Nevada City and Grass ValLETTERS TO THE EDITOR To the Editor: Iwould like to express my appreciation for the votes which came my way and for the dedicated labor of those who worked in my campaign, I greatly appreciate both and I am sorry that we were unable to make a greater impression, But most of the blame must rest upon my own shoulders, And in this regard I want to apologize to all those communities within the Second Congressional District whose voters were asked to support a candidate who never even appeared in their area.
