Dear Sir:
We are strongly in favor of maintaining: thL- rural atmosphere
In 6Ysst Chico, in general, and of the area: on and around Oak
in particular. .SpecificallyWay.,of mobile lames:, i , �e are opposed to the encroachment
fauzily dwellings of all either s' gularly or en masse, and to multiplekinds - True, both have come to be a
neceas ty in our present society, but we feel there are plenty of,
other.areas where they would pose much, less of a threat both
esthetically and.. monetarily. In addition, we have small
children and arse very concerned what such increased density and
the ensuing traffic would mean in terms of their saf'e�y.
W& are located on Oak Way between Nord Avenue and Glenwood
Avenue, apprOXimately- 200 yards from the inter6ection of Nord and
Oak May. It is our understanding that our area has currently
been assigned an intern S-1 zoning. wee fee;l this is definitely
a step in the rig
ht direction and appreciate your maintaining
such. standards. It is our hope you adopt s*z zoning permanently
for the area., in hopes of avoiding the feeling of congestiticn that
seems to prevail in all the newer residential areas in Chico and
Its unincorporated areas, sadly even in areas of half -acre parce3s .
=he potential is here -for a beautiful, quality area,. which Chico
needs. Hopefu-LIT, your wi11 consider Sacramento,: Santa Clara
County, and Contra. Contra County-, too name Just a few examples
and take heed before it is too late,
Yours truly,

lengthy. A few years ago a request was made to rezone an arra b;:gin-t

There are also some clouds ahead for almonds..as most almond

Some Imes I find it hard to follow their line o - reasoning for if
they were as concerned about pneseru ath s frrtil.e land as t1hey profess
