Show 4 - HARVEST‘HMES - OCTOBER 1994 More TREE from Page 1 _ Grand County (CV Drive is presently dedicated to Grand County). The FDA letter also pointed out that permission was needed to cut down the tree and that Grand County Zoning ordinances do not apply in the Town of Castle Valley. At last week’s POA Board meeting, the board voted to deny permission to cut down the tree. It is hoped that this will allow time to explore options to relieve Mr. Dunning of the tree’s liabilities and preserve this Castle Valley landmark. —Jack Campbell J everfeel like home?

Your neighbors were not put on earth to make you happy. And there are some that flat out won't. There are some who even enjoy the soap operas, gossip, and Perry Mason. But as a very wise young man once said, shake the dust from your boots and go out in search of those who will listen. (Heard tell that young man spent the week before his birth on the back of a donkey, and grew up with the wise, silent counsel of that gentle beast.) Let me know who you are.
