CITY GOVERNMENT EDITORIAL COMMENT J Planning Cited * Need For Connt: Planner Max Greenhall at a public meeting held at the Memorial Building last Wednesday night. The meeting, the last in a series of three held in the county, was designed to gather input from residents concerning proposed zoning to be used to attain planned growth in Summit County. Reasons Greenhall cited three reasons for the growth which is reversing a historic trend: . , urban sprawl, the develop .» ,‘ ment of recreational areas and the discovery of oil and minerals. - ’ The aesthetic desires of urban residents has promp— .““"?§ed.them to escape the “ iflolil’utioh of metropolitan increase in rural jobs than in city jobs. Local scenic beauty combined with growing participation in skiing, fishing, hiking, boating and other outdoor activities has attracted people to Summit County in greater numbers and is responsible for the expansion of recreational areas, the planner said. Adding to the population boom, Greenhall asserted, are recent discoveries of new petroleum and coal deposits in the county plus the revival of mining for silver and related minerals. Problems He said unplanned growth can lead to building in hazardous areas. The development of areas lying in fault zones, flood zones, and building on soil with unsuitable drainage characteristics are all possibilities if no supervision is provided, Greenhall said. Some of the undesirable effects which can result from recreational development were given as being the nonuse of land purchased for speculative purposes, the creation of a demand for services which the (county cannot afford, the. threatening of wildlife and the cutting and scarring of mountain sides. Greenhall noted that growing the although population means greater employment and a higher tax base, there are inherent .“0nce development damage is done, it is difficult problems.
