Some Parcels to be Rezoned. . .

Barbara Nugent requested that I post this. There is information regarding current zone change requests and commentary by concerned citizens is sought:

To Murrietans,
Let me know if any of these properties are a special concern to anyone; if there are concerns that should be presented to the GPAC Committee, etc. Again, this is a good meeting to attend - you can learn a lot from the discussions and see how people present themselves, what their agenda might be, etc.
