<div>Except for that little water right detail. The county
appropriately took care of that when they adopted their Moscow
Sub-basin groundwater ordinance which limits the amount of animals at
any confined facility in the sub-basin. Theoretically, this would not
be an issue in the City either if they had followed their own code and
rezoned the Thompson property when annexed to Farm-Ranch Transitional
which does not allow dairy operations except as a conditional use on
parcels larger than 20 acres and facilities located more than 500'
from a property line.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>The point I'm trying to make here, Kai, is flip statements
regarding community planning and zoning issues usually don't
work.</div>

<blockquote>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.</blockquote>

The odor would be in keeping with Moscow's "rural

Be careful what you wish for................<br>

Tom says:<br>
"One suggestion to maintain a large portion of Moscow's
"green"ery would<br>
be not to pave a 77-acre parcel that may evolve into nothing more than
a<br>
weed-infested blacktop eye-sore."<br>
<br>
Another suggestion: The best "zoning" is
"owning". You want to keep it<br>
"green", buy the sucker.<br>
