Salida Growth HEARING SET ON PLAN
A new growth plan for Salida will be unveiled July 20 at a public hearing to be held by the Stanislaus County Planning Commission. The county Board of Supervisors last year tanked a plan that would have allowed Salida to nearly triple in size to about 39,000 people in the next 10 years. That's too many, too fast, supervisors said. The new plan would add a few thousand residents and would encourage most of Salida's growth to the northwest. The July 20 meeting is scheduled to start at 6 p.m. in the basement chamber at Tenth Street Place, 1010 10th St., Modesto. - Modesto Bee .....http://www.modbee.com/metro/story/0,1113,173567,00.html
