Medford Lawyer Russell Do

tions indicated that 45 per cent

Fifty - six other signatures were
of residents living outside the

Selleck said Donald Grimes,
a leader of the area residents
opposing the election, polled 58
of the 104 people who had signed
the petitions. Thirty - eight
were for zoning, 18 were doubt
ful and two were against zon
ing, Selleck said. This means 65
per cent favor zoning, ;u per

cnl Voters. Associalion whicn
' he represents, as an organiza-
1 tion is not favoring or opposing

I (hat issue. "e said. But it does
lcel 'hat 'he zoning should be
put to an early vote because of
serious problems and some in
equities. "Whether it is a final ordi
nance or not, south Talent res
idents are living under it and
it does have an immediate ef
fect," he said.
The county judge had ex
plained that the interim ordi
nance was established follow
ing a public hearing of the area
residents, a number of whom
had petitioned for the zoning.
it expires Nov. 1, 1964.
A public hearing will be held
before Nov. 1 when a compre
hensive development plan for
the zoned area will be present
ed. George Brenner, Jackson
County planning director, ex
plained the plan will show prop
er location of commercial, in
dustrial and residential areas
within the south Talent area.
After the County Court has as
certained the feeling of the peo
ple of the area, the County
Court decides whether to re
establish the zoning or allow it
lo expire.
Would Not Serve Purpose
Selleck said many of the poo-
ple signing petitions for an elec
tion thought they were signing
petitions for adoption of zoning
for the area. An election before
the zoning expires would not
serve any purpose. If voted
down it would leave Uie area
unprotected and another wreck
ing yard could be cstblished,
he said.
Answering remarks from the
audience. Judge Miller said the
County Court does not control
establishment of a wrecking
yard. The Oregon Department
of Motor Vehicles issues the li
cense and docs not have to con
sult the County Court.

Taxed As Commercial
William B. Jessen, area res
ident, said his property is now
zoned as residential farm prop
erty and taxed as commercial
properly. He said he has had
five offers to sell it as com
mercial property, but due to tha
zoning was unable to do so.
Adjacent property was sold at
a sheriff's sale because of the
zoning, he said.
Jessen said he had not at

the zoning was established and
had not sought a variance from
the planning commission. "I
would not stoop to that," ha
declared.
He sharply criticized the
