The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) proposes to rule and invites public comment on the application for a non-aeronautical land- use change for approximately 829 acres of airport property at Blythe Airport, Blythe, California, from the aeronautical use provisions of the Quitclaim Deed and Grant Agreement Assurances since the land is not needed for aeronautical purposes. The property will be leased for its fair market value and the rental proceeds deposited in the airport account for airport use. The reuse of the land for a solar farm represents a compatible land use that will not interfere with the airport or its operation, thereby protecting the interests of civil aviation and contributing to the self-sustainability of the airport.
By LAUREL WALKER Town of Waukesha -- A Waukesha Town Board supervisor who for months abstained from voting on a controversial change in land use, citing a potential conflict of interest, reversed course last week and cast a deciding vote that has infuriated some area residents.

GLENDORA - Voters expressed satisfaction with the status quo Tuesday night returning Mayor Karen Davis to the City Hall and approving newcomer Gene Murabito by wide margins over a deep field of challengers. But voters also voted for change in the city, approving a change in land use designation that will allow for retail development in an area formerly zoned for auto dealerships.
ONTARIO - When the city began discussions on changing the land- use designation of 39 acres in the southern part of town, it set off a red flag for Dale and Judy Briggs. Now the couple in conjunction with residents have formed the group Rural Environment and Lifestyle Ontario to stop the city's proposal to change the designation of 39-acre area from "rural residential" to "low density.
ONTARIO - Judy Briggs remembers the time when she and her husband, Dale, moved into their home on Philadelphia Street in the southern part of the city, and they could see Black Angus grazing across the dirt road. It was that taste of a rural life, with the amenities of a city, that the two of them enjoyed.
CAMDEN - Concerned that the town will become a bedroom community with no year-round employment, a community task force will consider recommending that the select board adopt a moratorium on converting commercial office space into residential uses. The task force was created this summer when business leaders approached the board. They said they were worried about the town's losing its economic vitality.
Large subdivisions or commercial developments in Maine would have to reduce their contributions to global warming under legislation presented Tuesday. If passed, the measure would put Maine, with Massachusetts and California, among the few states to regulate land use as a way to slow climate change.
