Roberts said Boxwell was
upset with sone of the nearly
20 letters of protest the
planning commission has
received. One stated that
“junk yards are a place that
harbor criminals’.
‘According to Roberts he also
voiced displeasure with a news
article in The Union which told
of his plans to move from East
Main Street to Whiting. Apparently he felt the article
stirred up area residents.

At the last meeting of the
commission Boxwell had said,
“We just want to get down off
of that hill,” referring to his
_ present East Main Street
location above Hills Flat.
‘Commissioner Clay Caldwell
had said that he believed
Whiting Street ‘‘would be an
appropriate location.”
Boxwell insisted that is is
difficult to find a suitable
location and that he had been
turned down on numerous _
moving to Whiting Street
sites within the county.
Roberts opened the
discussion by informing the
Boxwell’s that an _ Invironmental Impact Report
would be required and that it is
city policy that the statement
be prepared at the applicants
expense by an outside consultant firm.
After making his statements
Boxwell left the meeting but
the others stayed to ask about
down zoning the parcel from
C-2 “other commercial to R-2
urban medium density.”
They were informed that the
proceedure would involve a
General Plan Amendment and
amending the zoning ordinance and would again
probably require an EIR.
