Supervisor William D. Fusselman said there needs to be control over abuses, but the people should have a chance to review the ordinance and comment upon it. Mayor Robert D. Carrow of Novato, who has been pushing for the ordinance before the board since June, said substandard development on unincorporated land contiguous to Novato has had a detrimental effect on the city. Alfred Belluci, vice chairman of the Novato Planning Commission, said the lot-split ordinance has eliminated circumventing of the subdivision ordinance, has created more orderly development of small lots and made lots more saleable.

County Counsel Douglas J. Maloney said this ordinance will achieve what Novato has requested. Attorney Charles W. Pierce, representing West Marin property owners, opposed. The board also received letters from Ruth E.

Lockhart of Point Reyes and J. T. Armstrong of Marshall opposing the ordinance. Richard Nelson, Fairfax city engineer, spoke in favor of it, and the Leagues of Women Voters of Central and Southern Marin submitted a letter backing the ordinance. The ordinance is designed to cover divisions of land not regulated by the subdivision ordinance.

Its requirements include adequate utility services, adequate provision for storm drainage, adequate lot design, improvement and circulation for streets.

The plate is described as having been affixed to the bone with eight small screws and a stainless steel hip screw four and three-fourths inches long Contention of the suit is that either (a) the doctors and hos pital were at fault in improperly installing the plate so that it broke, or (b) the plate was defective, placing the blame on the manufacturer.
