Richard Womack voiced his
agreement with Mrs. , Barnhart.
City Manager Beryl
Robinson Jr. said he felt
business was bly down
because of the “‘confusion in
downtown Nevada City this
summer.” He referred to Pine
and Commercial Streets being
. Closed for construction. work
there and suggested thecouncil take a “wait and see”
_ stand on the issue.
Mayor John Rankin went
along with Robinson’s
suggestion saying ‘‘We can’t
tell much about it until the
street is finished and then we
can see what is. the best
solution.” i
“Ifthe merchants would
park their cars on the back
streets instead of in front of
their shops, the parking
situation would be a lot better,”’ Councilman Ernie Pello
' contributed.
Councilman Bob Paine
referred to the time when the
city removed the parking’
meters, at the request of the
merchants, only to have to put
them back because the
parking ‘‘was abused by the
merchants.”
Downey that the
population is growing but the
parking spaces aren’t. “We
need to keep the shoppers in
town rather than somewhere
else.” He inquired as to how
the city could obtain more
parking areas.
“We can’t tear down that
which tourists are coming to
see,” noted Paine. “The city
has a real problem and we will
have to find more spaces.” He
suggested that space will have
to be located away from town,
alae a merchants to
“exe! their shoe leather
and exert a bit more energy.”
In other action:
-The council heard a request
from Roman’ Rozynski,
representing the Nevada
County Historical Society, as
_to the future of the proposed
carriage house at Pioneer
Park.
He told the council the.
society has money set aside
for the project which was
stopped several years ago due
to the master plan adoption for
the park. Adding that the
carriage and other items were
deteriorating, he said they had
someone to restore them but
not if they are replaced in the
area they are presently
located. .
After checking over the
‘master plan, Robinson said
a ‘County Nugget 3
the city is looking at least five
years into the future before the
caretakers’ ‘cottage can be ~
moved and thé carriage house _
built.
“Why not leave it where it is
now and make an amendment
to the plan,” Mayor Rankin
queried. A decision was tabled
until ‘Oct. 14 so:
council members can look
over the site.
_ «Ray Dalugge, owner of the
Crazy Horse. Inn on Commercial Street, asked the
council to leave the PG&E pole
outside his business so he
could havé it carved into a
totem pole.
‘After further discussion, in
_ which the council appeared
agreeable to the suggestion, .
they asked Dalugge to bring
the carver, Dennis Dickson, to
the next meeting to discuss the
plans further.
Insulate. Saveenergy.
Take a look in your attic.
‘Adequate insulation on the floor
of an unfinished attic can cut
winter heating bills up to 20 percent. And if you have air conditioning, there’s more savings
in summer cooling costs.
Chances are, there’s not .
enough insulation in your attic..
one third of Northern California
homes have none at all.
So heat is probably escaping
‘from your attic in large amounts.
And you’re paying to
replace the heat. Day

two of your time and some readyto-install insulation from your
building supply dealer. Just tell
him you want to insulate your
attic and he’ll show you what you
need. You can probably finance
it with your bank charge card. —
Simply lay insulation blankets between those joists that
cross the attic floor. That’s it.
Or, if you prefer, call an
“Insulation Contractor.” It’s
wise to seek out a licensed and
bonded contractor, such as a
member of the Insulation Contractors Association, to do the
work. Ask your dealer or contractor about EGIA certification.
