She plans to retire with her husband If she wins $1 million or day. fzoeldfei 4 LOMPOC The Question of whether there should be restrictions on general commercial-retail uses in the dry's new industrial park, emerged from a Planning Commission bearing Tuesday on the Central Avenue Specific Plan. Additional sessions on the plan will be held on Aug. 7 and 11, the latter in a joint session with the City Council. As conceived by a consultant and approved in concept by the commission and the council, the 130-acres Jiorjh ofLjCentral Avenue, west of Street, Cast cf Steet and south of Lompoc airport, was to concentrate on light industrial uses aimed at the generation of jobs.

Commercial or retail uses were to be secondary to the primary uses, so the authors of the concept argued. The conceptual plan calls for business park industrial uses surrounding smaller "Mixed Use Centers," which would include commercial-retail uses. A "meandering" thoroughfare would bisect the 130 acres running east-west parallel to and a few hundred feet north of Central Avenue. One of the major features of the plan is a proposal to restrict access to Central Avenue. Speakers Tuesday included Ana Brown, John Lizarraga, Marvin Loney and Walt Burnett The latter two represented Mission Kills Community Services District They called for a Joint session of their district with the City Council to discuss "the reclamation of flood control waters" in the area.

In other agenda business, the commission voted to approve a sign proposal at Peace Lutheran Church, 1000 West Ocean but denied a sign request at 400 East Ocean Ave. The commission canceled consideration of architectural features for a subdivision at the southeast corner of Street and Central Avenue. Principal planner Ray Severn said the developer, Lawrence Lacks had withdrawn the request and plans to sell the lots for individual home construction.

He'll go to a City Council meeting on Aug. 5 and a joint session with the Planning Commission on Aug, 11 That'slust for starters. It's hardly the schedule of a mayor who electrified the community Tuesday with the announcement that he will not seek re-election on Nov.

4. But that's the way Salazar has run the office of mayor literally seven days a week and most of his waking hours. He also goes out proudly, convinced that he has set high standards as the city's first popularly-elected mayor. "Looking back over my first two years as a councilman and the last four as mayor, I have to conclude with a great deal of pride that somehow I have made a difference in enhancing our quality of life here in Lompoc. While not all of the points of the program I suggested to the council in 1982 and 1984 have been achieved, the record clearly shows a collective council action that few cities can rival." Why did Salazar decide not to seek re-election? In a prepared statement, which he released Tuesday, he had this to say: "There may be some speculation as to why I am not seeknK the office of flavor." 1 truth is thst over a period of six years that I have been in office there are personal things that have been left undone.

Now is the time to do them. Secondly, my professional career Fair officials prepare for opening SANTA MARIA In addition to entertainment and commercial interest, the Santa Barbara County Fair is also providing a practical learning experience for a Cal Poly State University Agricultural Journalism intern, Anna Cekola. Realizing the importance livestock and agriculture play in a fair, Santa Barbara County Fair Publicity Director Bud Schenck requested that the journalism student be hired to give this area of the fair the attention it needs. "There are a thousand and one stories that can be found in the livestock and agriculture area of the fair and we want to make sure some of these stories are found," Schenck said. To fully emphasize the livestock and agriculture, Schenck asked Cal Poly specifically for someone with an agricultural background.

Cekola, with background in 4-H and a Central Valley native, should find covering this traditional part of the county fair easier, Scheck said. Besides practical experience, the intern will also receive university credit toward a bachelor of arts degree. "By setting up this position, we help a student rather than a professional gam invaluable job experience," Schenck said.

Congratulations have been pouring in along with the business calls atReilly's. With all the good wishes she has been receiving from Lompocans, Hill thinks she just might win the Sand prize. "People in general ve been so unselfish in this town, it's unreal." But what will happen if she really makes it? "My lifestyle will change but my friends won't" acre-foot charge now. Bettencourt told the directors in gentle terms that the spending rate would soon wipe out all of the remainder of the $52,000 reserve and begin cause the district to dip into special reserves of $200,000. The directors heard Betten-court's presentation in silence.

The district has been extra money on engineering and legal studies required by the district's watchdog role on the Santa Ynez River. Even greater expenditures would be required if threatened litigation with South Coast entities become a reality. Earlier the board approved a letter composed by Stanley C. Hatch, legal counsel, for reading tonight at the joint state and federal "scoping" public bearing on the proposed enlargement of Cachuma reservoir.

The board will seek to have the state give more consideration to water quality, the protection of downstream water rights and other local factors when they do the preliminary studies on the enlargement. $7.99 By Vaughn Proctor The Record SANTA YNEZ These are not the best of times for the Santa Ynez River Water Conservation District Board of Directors. Like any ordinary John Q. Public, the directors were jolted Tuesday with word that they have overdrawn their bank account with the county and that they are spending more than their income. District secretary Boyd Bet-tencourt told the directors that they have overdrawn their account by $13,000.

That problem can be corrected easily by shifting money from a reserve of $52,000, but outstripping district income is another matter. Bet-tencourt said the district has been spending an average of $14,960 a month for the last six months. At that rate, Betten-court said, the district would be annual income of about $72,000. Unlike times before Proposition 13 when there was a varying district tax rate, most district income now comes from a groundwater charge on pum-page, which is set once a year. The directors completed that in June and cannot increase the i is more demanding and requires additional attention.

"I also plan to be active in helping elect a new mayor and councilmembers who are committed to serving the public and protecting the city's short and long term interests," he said. "Not to do so would be to abandon a successful course of action as well as the majority of our citizens who are proud of their city and who have a very positive outlook for its future." In the one portion of his statement that was tinged with a trace of bitterness, Salazar said, "To achieve a continued of prosperity and quality of life in our valley requires leadership that is not tied to any special interest group.
