Letters to the Editor
Inform ation on planning com m ission
To the Editor:
The Heppner City Planning
Commission has the authority to
grant temporary use permits for
structures restricted by city or
dinances. The purpose of those
permits is to alleviate unnecessary
hardship created by strict enforce
ment of the city 's zoning
ordinances.
On November 4, during a
public hearing, the planning com
mission granted a temporary use
permit to Walter Foster, for a
temporary residence in his motor
home. The purpose of the permit
was to allow Mr. Foster and his
family time to find adequate
housing while starting their new
business at the bowling alley. The
permit was issued for a six month
time period ending June 1.
The planning commission is a
seven member volunteer board
w hich meets on the first Monday
of each month at 7 p.m. At our
meetings the commission hears
requests for conditional use per
mits, variances, and temporary
use permits during public hear
ings. The planning commission
also implements changes in the
city’s zoning ordinances impos
ed by Oregon law. The commis
sion would like to invite the
public to attend any or our
meetings and encourages com
ments on how we can better serve
the residents of Heppner.

(s) Cyde Estes
Enjoy holiday w ithout alcohol
To the Editor:
This three day weekend is a
time to stop and remember lov
ed ones who have passed on from
this temporal life, especially those
who died fighting for the
freedoms that we enjoy.
Let us not use this as an oppor
tunity to abuse ourselves with
chemical substances, or alcohol.
Let us especially warn our under
age youth of the dangers and
harm from chemical substances
and alcohol.
The National Council on
Alcohol and Drug Dependency
says “ Alcohol is closely linked
with virtually every negative
aspect of society; suicide, violent
crime, birth defects, industrial ac
cidents, domestic and sexual
abuse, homelessness, death and
disease. It is the number one drug
problem for people from all
walks of life. It knows no racial,
ethnic, economic or social
barriers.
And just one more piece of in
formation from 1990 College
Drinking Focus Group Reports:
“ Drinking is often less expensive
than other forms of entertain
ment. A six pack of beer is $3.50;
a rock concert is $20; music CD
is $14 and a movie is $6.“
Let us encourage our youth to
enjoy this holiday in non
alcoholic ways and to a safe and
sane weekend.
Sincerely,
(s) Rev Stan Hoobing
Convenor of the Heppner/Lex-
ington Oregon Together Group

To the Editor:
We would like to express our
appreciation to all the courageous
people who signed the referen
dum to make it possible for all of
us to vote on the Transient Room
Tax in the November election.
Since there seems to be some
confusion as to how this money
will be used we would like to be
perfectly clear as to where it will
go. Some of us are under the er
roneous belief that the money will
be used for community projects.
Profile corrected
To the Editor:
I would like to correct an item
in my candidates profile printed
in last weeks Gazette-Times. This
error was probably caused by a
confiision in initials of the various
organizations. I was never a
member of the executive commit-
tee of the Oregon Cattlemen’s
Association. I was on the ex
ecutive committee of the Associa-
tion o f Oregon Counties
representing the North Central
Eastern Oregon Counties until
1987.

T hanks for beauty in H eppner
To the Editor:
On a recent trip to Heppner I
went around a block to turn
around and noticed some very
pretty flowers so continued on the
back street and turned onto other
streets and tried to take in all the
streets in town. Some very
beautiful flowers with purple
lilacs and iris galore. Some of the
houses were older but nearly all
had well kept lawns and flowers
and houses well maintained with
some having unusual lawn
decorations. Really enjoyed my
self guided tour and wish to thank
the people of Heppner for the
beauty I saw that day as I drove
around. Again, thank you
citizens.
Sincerely,
