Myrtle Point land use study outlines future commercial zoning
The City Planning Commission reviewed a Myrtle Point land use report focusing on commercial development. It defines the Myrtle Point trading area as the upper Coquille Valley, notes 8,144 residents in 1960, and analyzes shopping patterns, Highway 42 traffic, and the balance between central Spruce Street firms and highway locations. It projects gradual commercial growth, suggests zoning criteria to avoid overbuilding, and estimates 5–6 additional acres needed by 1975 if population reaches 4,000.
