Eaton Directed To Prepare
Hew Regulation Suggestions
The Jackson county plan
ning commission has directed
Planning Technician Jack
Eaton to prepare suggestions
for new county or state regu
lations on control of resubdi
Viding lots.
The planning commission
delayed action on Eaton's pol
icy brief, which was present
ed informally at the commis
sion's dinner meeting
Wednesday night,
i In his brief suggesting con
trol of resubdivision lots.
Eaton noted that because of
soil types many lots may re
quire large drain fields for
septic tanks. However, the original-lots
can be divided
again and sold regardless of
drainage field requirements.
' The county sanitarian can
control the lot size only in
the case of GI or FHA loans
when his inspection and ap
proval is required, Eaton explained.
The steadily increasing
population and sale of new
homes aggravates the prob
lem, he pointed out.
Disbursement of homes be
cause of large drain fields re
quired will make it difficult
in the future to group them
under a sewer system, Eaton
said.
Suggest Methods
Orie Moore, chief county
sanitarian noted that the in
flux of population is rapid
ly using up suitable drainage
field soils. He suggested grav
el fill or sawdust and shav
ings evaporation beds for
septic tank drainage fields on
toils unsuitable for standards
drainage fields.
The gravel fill method has
proved successful with some
private homes for four years,
and a cafe in the Agate des
ert area has used sawdust and
havings successfully for two
years, except when heavy
rainfall flooded the field,
Moore said.
Eaton was directed also to
consult with the city planning
department and County En
gineer Robert J. Carstensen
on establishing two possible
additional east-west traffic
routes across the Highway 99
freeway.
Current plans Indicate no
routes between Barnett and
Fern Valley rds. inter-change
s three-mile distance, Eaton
pointed out. One would be a
possible Voorhics crossing ex
tension and an extension by
Charlotte Ann rd.
Depends en Growth
These would not necessari
ly have to be established,
but provided for as popula
tion growth and traffic in
creases at the south end of
Medford, it was pointed out.
The proposed county build
ing code was also discussed.
Commission President Ron
James said It was decided
to delay formal discussion of
the code since Clifford Love
joy was the only building
code subcommittee member
present at the meeting.
James noted that the com
mission has been preparing
the building code for the time
when it might be needed, but
is not actively promoting it.
The commission agreed
that Jim McGoodwln, attor
ney for H. E. Conger, Ross
lane, should contact the dis
trict " attorney's office on

Following appearance of

Pierce, the subdivision sub
committee agreed to meet on
possible approval of the Bel
Air subdivision in the Cherry
Heights district east of the
Phoenix-Hillcrest rd.
Dellenback said Pierce was
anxious to start selling lots.
It was noted that the final
plat had been checked and
cleared all county depart

Radio Theory Upset
By Freak Blackout
Boulder, Colo., (Science
Service)-An unusual event on
the sun more than a year ago
is still under intensive study
by members of a solar re
search group at the National
Bureau of Standards Boulder
Laboratories here. An ex
tremely severe radio blackout
of long duration occurred,
and large radio noise out
bursts were heard on a num
ber of wavelengths, beginning
at 4:30 p.m., Universal time, ;
June 9, 1959.
However, no solar flare!
could be seen on the sun's j
disk, although a prominent !
flare would normally be ap
parent at the time of such a
radio disturbance. This un
usual occurrence caused Bu
reau scientists to question
previously established rela
tionships between solar
events, ionospheric disturb
ances and geomagnetic storms.
The understanding of these
relationships plays an impor
tant part in the Bureau's ra
dio propagation prediction
services.
