NID Orders Study
For Recreation Funds
GRASS VALLEY ---The Nevada Irrigation District Friday moved to rush an economic justification study in
preparation for official application for Davis-Grunsky
Act grants for development
of recreational facilities at
four reservoirs of the YubaBear project.
The district action came
one day after Nevada County
supervisors approved a minute order directing county
Planning Director Bill Roberts and the county planning commission to assist in
compiling the report.
Hired to complete the
economic study was Dr. Andrew H. Trice, Sacramento.
Dr. Trice outlined what the
proposed study would involve
and estimating the cost.
The irrigation district
board was urged by Dr. Trice
tohire a recreation land use
‘planner to determine site
locations >and recreational
plans at the reservoir sites,
He estimated the study
will take 60 days, followed
by ten days of consultations
with state officials before the
report is complete. Cost of
the study, including Trice
and a land use planner, engineering work and printing,
will be about $15, 000.
NID directors are considering taking the grant applicationto the legislature in
order to obtain more than the
$300, 000 limit per reservoir
now existing inthe state act,
Jackson Meadow and Rollins
dam sites are expected to
toshow in the feasibility report a potential for recreation which would justify such
a request of the legislature.
Trice promised to have a
complete report for the dis=
trict by March 1, allowing
the district to beat ‘an April
1 deadline set by legislative
schedules during the 1963
session.
Placer County has been
asked to participate in preee of the report,
LAW FOR OCCUPANTS
OF CLAIMS SIGNED
WASHINGTON, D. C, ===
President John F. Kennedy
has signed into law legislation introduced by Congressman Harold T. Johnson to
provide relief for residential
occupants of unpatented
mining claims.
Johnson had introduced the
legislation early this year in
order to prevent wholesale
evictions of occupants who
had lived for many years on
unpatented mining claims
which were being cleared by
theBureau of Land Mangaement for public sale.
In recommending enactment of the legislation, the
House Committee on Interior andInsular Affairs, of
which Johnson is a member,
recognized the problem and
described the legislation as
providing the Secretary of
Interior with the authority to
convey portions of the mining claims to the residential
occupant at fair market value where the land is not required for governmental purposes,
The legislation, as amended by the Senate Lefore
final passage and forwarding
tothe President for signature,
requires thatthe occupant of
theclaim must have resided
on it for seven years to be
eligible for the preference
provision of the legislation.
In supporting the legislation, Congressman Johnson
emphasized that its provisions would come into play
only if the government were
to dispose of these lands and
turn them into homesite
tracts, Instead of forcing the
present occupants off the
land and then requiring them
to bid on the open market
for the property on which
they had made their home
for many years, this legislation would permit the federal
agencies to provide them
with a preference right to
acquire the property.
COUNTING THE VOTE---Election officals (L-R) Mrs. Mildred Lane,
Mrs. William Snelland Mrs. Bonnie L. Davis started their count shortly
after the polls closed last night at the Empire 2 precinct in Grass Valley,
one of 200 NBC "Dewline" precincts used to predict Gov. Edmund Brown's
victory, County Clerk John (Tommy) Trauner reported more than 80 per
cent of the registered voters cast ballots in yesterday's generalelection.

Brown In Sizable Turnout

County gave Governor Edmund G, Brown his first election margin since becoming
governor, joining the rest of
California in building up a
margin of victory for the
Democratic incumbent that
will go over the 250,000.
mark in the state.
For Nevada County Democrats, Governor Brown's
county edge over Republican
Richard Nixon, 4814104451,
was a sweet victory.
Inhis first statewide race,
Brown carried Nevada County by 765 votes enroute to his
election as attorney general
in 1950.
But as state governor
Brown becomes the first gubernatorial Democratic can-)
didate in more than 20 years
to carry the county for his
party. Heis the first Democratic governor to gain reelection since 1853,
Presidential candidates of
the Democratic party have
carriedthe county, Franklin
D, Roosevelt three times,
and Harry Truman in 1948 by
24 votes,
This 1962 gubernatorial
race was unique for another
reason, It saw the largest
turnout of voters, 9,573, in
an off-presidential election
year.’ The voter percentage
was 80.6 percent, also a record,
TheBrown victory figured
to 50.3 per cent of ballots
cast and gave him a clear
majority of county votes, in
spite of 165 voters who skip=ped the governor's race and
143 who voted for Robert
Wyckoff, the Prohibition
candidate.
County voters gave support
to the reelection of Congress5

"foresight and breadth of
concept” in attempting to
“conserve elements of natural beauty and of historic
and cultural interest. '
The proposals of the council included recommendations thet roadside parks
should be developed adjacent toscenic highways; that
outdoor advertising should be
controlled; that sufficient
right-of-ways should be acquired "soasto conserve and
develop elements in the
scenic corridor"; that roadside footpaths should be developed; and that there be
"faithful adherence" to
principles set forth in department of public works Circular Letter #62-161, issued
May 29.
Among the principles in
the Department. of Public
Werks letter are the following:
"The location of the highway should be such that the
new construction will preserve the natural environment and will lead to and
unfold scenic positions. ”
"The general alignment
and profile of the highway
should fit the character of
the area traversed sothat un=
sightly scars of excavation
and embankment will be reduced to a minimum,”
Included in the proposed
scenic highway system are:
Highway 49 between Grass
Valley and the Sierra County line; Highway 89; and
state route 25 between Grass
Valley and Colfax. Local officials have urged the inclusion of route 20 and route
49 south of Grass Valley.
