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. Area Voters Back Gov. Brown In Sizable Turnout Johnson, Lurardi Win NEVADA CITY---Nevada 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.
