  Kai,


  Actually, they can't (put in a feedlot). The city zoning code does not
allow for feedlots. Even before last June's landowner requested annexation,
when it was in the county, city rules would have still applied as it is in
the Area of City Impact.


  B. Permitted Principal Uses and
  Structures:
  1. Agriculture, including the raising,
  harvesting, and selling of crops; on-site
  storage of grain and seed; the raising
  and sale of livestock or poultry;
  dairying and sale of dairy products; and
  other similar agricultural, horticultural,
  or animal husbandry uses, excluding
  feedlots with more than twenty (20)
  animals.


  As for purchasing the land and keeping it green space, word on the street
is Frank Bennett, who lives on the adjoining property, made Thompson's an
offer but was refused. I'm afraid I don't have Frank's ear so have not been
able to personally verify.

    Of course, the Thompsons could keep it agricultural and put a feedlot

    It has good drainage, power to the property and easy highway access for
    semi-trucks.
    The odor would be in keeping with Moscow's "rural ambience".
    Be careful what you wish for................

    Tom says:
    "One suggestion to maintain a large portion of Moscow's "green"ery would
    be not to pave a 77-acre parcel that may evolve into nothing more than a
    weed-infested blacktop eye-sore."

    Another suggestion:  The best "zoning" is "owning".  You want to keep it
    "green", buy the sucker.
