Barkhouse, Davis, Hall and Smith voted to deny the permit, saying it is not compatible with th^ agricultural zoning of the property.

Commissioners said the business would be compatible with the R-E (residential estates) zoning of the property.—Denied 4-3, a tentative map sought by Virgil Atkinson, Letha Barrow and Dan Jacuzzi that would have allowed the dividing of 18 acres on the west side of Township Road between Dresser Road and the Sacramento Northern Railroad tracks into 18 residential lots. Micheli, Davis, Tomlinson and Smith voted to deny the map, saying it does not adequately address drainage problems in the area and is premature development. Hilbert, Hall and Barkhouse voted to approve the map, noting that supervisors earlier approved a general plan amendment to allow the projectand seem to favor the proposed development.— Granted use permits to Buttes Resources Co. and to TXO Production Corp. for the installation of natural gas wells on the south side of Central Avenue and west of McArthur Road in Meridian, and west of Cran-more Road and north of Pelger Road in west Sutter County, respectively.—Approved rezoning property owned by Linda and Bruce Minton on the west side of Acacia Avenue and north of Marshall Street in Sutter from C-2 (general commercial) to C-M (Commercial Industrial) to allow the establishment of a pump supply business and a warehouse.—Approved, 6-1, a use permit for Beverly Ferguson that willallow the installation of two mobile homes in addition to an existing house at 2357 Rio Oso Road, Rio Oso. A condition of the permit is that the mobile homes be lived in by the owner or parents of the owner. Barkhouse voted against the permit, saying three dwellings on one lot is too high a density.— Approved a variance and tentative map sought by Ludwig Schmidl that will allow the creation of an 18,000-square-foot home site south of Eneinal Road and east of Larkin Road. The variance will allow a lot size reduction from the normal one acre limit. Commissioners found that unusual circumstances exist because the smaller lot size would allow for a larger adjoining agricultural parcel.
