senting the Associated General Contractors of Nevada ad the Rogers Construction Co said there is a threat of an to stop the proposal With that he suggested it would save time to send the application back to the board of adjustment and send it through channels again rather than drag it through the courts feel we will ultimately win a favorable he said iled by List The application was originally filed by Robert List of the List Cattle Company July 10 List notified two area property own ers of application July 19 ac cording to Paul Hamilton deputy district attorney A hearing was held on the case July 19 in the offices of the Regional Planning Commis sion Hamilton said one of the two property owners submitted a letter stating he had no objec tions and the other made a per sonal appearance The Washoe County Board of Adjustment had recommended approval of the application The county commissioners Application Starts Over 1 were to make a decision on the application Aug 5 but learned an appeal had been filed by Washoe Valley landown ers Henry and Minnie Heiden reich attorney claimed the ap peal was since the property is not within 300 feet of the 40 acre parcel where the pit is pro posed attorney said the List property adjoins his property and so they should have been notified of the public hearing County ordinances specify only those sent official notices of public hearings can file ap peals Thursday Hamilton said it was the opinion of the district office the Heiden reichs are not within the re quired 300 feet of the subject area Land for the pit is listed sep arately on the county maps The cattle company owns about 1000 acres in the vicinity however he said Suggestion Accepted Attorneys from both sides agreed to suggestion Notices they said will be sent to everyone

notify everyone ad joining the entire 1000 acres With all of legal outlined by Hamilton and five attorneys representing the inter ested groups the commissioners readily agreed to start over again 127

cerned about the a gravel pit would leave on the hillside He said there would be no objection if the pit was moved somewhere out of sight Restrained Anger Wilson said his recommenda tion to start over again was made with because of the cost to the con tractor in delays Richard Allen executive director of the Regional Plan ning Commission said the staff had an option in this case whether to hold a hearing at all 99 cases out of 100 of this sort no one in particular is he said Commissioners (Specs) McKenzie and Richard Streeter expressed about the way the notification and hearing was handled
