INTERIM ZONE TN THE MOUNTAIN AREAS NOW UNDER STUDY BECAUSE OF THE
PROLTFEROUS LOT SPLITTING (CONTINUEb FROM JUNE 25, 1974)
Mrs. Blair set out the recommendation of Planning Commission to
reimpose the "TM" interim zone in the mountain areas now under study because
of the proliferous lot splitting. She set out the ai^eas that would be
involved. it was County Counsel's opinion that the Board not reimpose this
interim zoning. Matter discussed; no action taken.
74-999 COUNTY COUNSEL DIRECTED TO WORK TO AMEND THE A-2 ZONES TO CONFORM WITH
THE GENERAL PLAN
Supervisor McKillop suggested that the Board consider the A-2
zones and zone out the ones that do not conform. He felt that County Counsel
and Planning could come up with a recommendation regarding these A»2 zonings.
Suggestion discussed.
It was moved by Supervisor McKillop, seconded by Supervisor Gilman
and unanimously carried that County Counsel work with Planning Commission
to amend the A-2 zones to conform with the General Plan.
74-1000 BOUNDARIES OF INTERIM ZONE WITHIN SIERRA DEL ORO, FIR NAVEN AND
PARADISE PINES TO BE RE-DRAWN
Supervisor Cameron stated that there were people present in the
audience that would like to discuss the boundaries of the interim zone that
was adapted by this Board at their regular meeting held on June 18th, 1974,
within the Sierra Del Oro, Fir Haven and Paradise Pines Subdivisions.
Apparently when this interim zoning was adopted, the commercial areas should
have been deleted, but instead they were included within the description of
the boundaries of this district. It was suggested that the ordinance could
be amended to exclude the commercial locations. Bettye Blair said she would
need a definitive area of what the Board was talking about.
The residents urged that the Paradise Pines Plaza be excluded as
a commercial area.
Chairman Madigan opened the discussion to the audience at this time.
Appearing:
1. Sam Fortino, representing Paradise Pines. He spoke regarding
the way the interim ordinance hr~d been adopted. He felC the Board should
have notified the people in that area prior to adapting the interim ordinance.
2. Ralph Beemer, he spoke on behalf of the residents of Sierra
Del Oro.
3. Raymond Jarrard, Paradise Pines. He requested that the commercial
locations in Paradise Pines be returned to the A-2 zoning and in this
way the County would;~~a~e-more control over the uses of the property. He
said the company resents having their hands tied on normal development and
use. They feel there is a need to have more businesses up in that area.
4. Bi11 0livedo, Sierra Del Oro. He said the people within, this
area did vote to have Mr. Beemer represent them.
5. Mr. Jim De l,a Vergne, Fir Haven. He said he helped organize
the Homeowners Association. He asked why the Board had not excluded and made
an exception of the commercial property. Supervisor Cameron told him that it
was an oversight.
Skyway Plaza discussed. A-2 zoning discussed.
Page S3.
July 2, 1974
6. Mr. Charlie Fitzsimmons, president of the Paradise Pines Association.
He said the people up in that area want the Paradise Skyway Plaza included
in the commercial zoning. He feels that the area should be planned now and
requested that the Skyway Plaza be excluded from the interim coning,
7. Bill Averell, Paradise Pines Unit•
8. Willie Chenowith, Upper Rfdge Council. He feels that the
interim zoning is the best route to go but that the commercial locations
being zoned at this time was merely an oversight.
Supervisor Ladd said that in the interest of saving time, maybe
the Board could discuss the matter at this time. He said it was not the
Boards' intention to place the comx~ercial locations within the interim zone.
County Counsel stated that there was a misunderstanding about the area that
the inter~.m zoning would cover. Another ordinance will have to be published
to cover the area that should be covered. Planning Department will have to
prepare an amended description setting out the areas to be covered and
deleting the commercial locations. Mrs. Blair e~cplained how the description
would be handled.
Others appearing: 1,~airlle"Cummings, Sierra Del Oro, a member of the
property owners association, and Del Geddis, representing Larwin Company.

to the Board. It was felt the commercial locations should be deleted from
this interim zoning. The area from the,~nction of the old and new Skyway and
to tierminate at Rosewood on the old Skyway, about 660 feet on each side of the
old Skyway, would be considered commercial. The zoning will not include any
of the residential lots. The commercial location would be 6b0 feet, east and
west of the centerline of the Skyway, and excepting the residential lots within
the Paradise Pines Subdivision.

boundaries delineated in the interim zone, as set out in Ordinance No. 1459,
were not the correct boundaries, said action will be amended to re-do the
boundaries of the interim zoning, which would exclude the commerc~~r} IaCAtiOns
and that it is the ~#:rcent of -this 'Bo~efi"~^`-[d Have -this back on the ~ agenda for

REFERRED TO PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
Mr. Rogers stated that he has property on Big Bend Road. He had
applied in February for a septic tank permit and it was approved. He has
done everything now that needs to be done on the property. He applied for
a County permit and at this time, he was advised that there was a freeze
in that area on permits. He used a generator on his property but it has
now stopped working. He is asking the Board if a permit amld be issued
so he can be hooked up to P. G, & E. service. He has a trailer on the property
and he would like to be hooked up to the utilities.
Supervisor McKillop said he called the P.G. & E. in Oroville and
they told him that if he had live stock, trees, etc. the man could have his
utilities hooked up for agricultural purposes. This man's livestock needs
to be watered. Supervisor McKillop felt there should be some way that this
man could receive help.
Mr. Castleberry said that with the Boards permission, maybe
Public Works could make soma exceptions. This man has been honest and they
would like to do something to allow ~~'~:m_ta--have his utilities.

Planning Commission initiated rezone for the Lake Madrone area from A-2
(general) to TM and TM-5 (timber mountain) zones was held as continued,

Betty Blair handed out excerpts from the Planning Commission with their
recommendation. The Planning Commission went along with what they had
recommended before and disagreed with the Boards recommendation.
Time spent discussing the one-acre parcels in this zoning.
Supervisor Ladd felt that if there was need there could always
be a map. Inundation discussed. Supervisor Gilman was concerned about the
innocent buyer.
The Planning Commission did not think that it was proper to change
the zoxting to 1'M-1. Supervisor McKillop felt the Board should wait until the
A-2 zoning is changed to fit the TM areas. Mrs. Blair read to the Board the
uses permitted in the TM zoning. She explained that it is quite an undertaking
to redo the A-2 just to fit the TM area. Supervisor McKillop felt that it
would be worthwhile.

unanimously carried, the Board continued the hearing until July 30th, 1974 for

library to be built an this site. County Counsel suggested that the Board
not do this; they should go through the process of ~~~uring a use permit.

on Clark Road was approved; granting of the use permit, subject to the conditions,
was approved, and thaC a title insurance policy be provided by the seller.
