The council held a public hearing Feb. 17 to discuss naming a mobile home district within the town's zoning area. At Wednesday's meeting, no mobile home park district will be discussed. Town Manager Matthew Dolge said the council wanted to consider passing the amended ordinance without setting a specific district in case a wave of applications for mobile home building permits begin arriving from persons attempting to get in before the new restrictions apply. The amended ordinance will add a few more restrictions than currently apply in the town's zoning ordinance, Dolge said. Under the proposed amendments, the underpinning of a mobile home would have to be made of masonry, and would have to be continuous except for doors into the crawl space. All hitches and other attach ments making the home mobile would need to be removed. The roof would have to be peaked, not flat. "The amendments add more guidelines," Dolge said, "aimed at making the homes more durable and better looking."

In fact, Kaye's art is breaking new ground in the art world of New York. In recent years, she has been re-exploring the clas sical genre of Still Life. Using the tools of lens and film, she has captured effects of light and color that an Old Master was ever able to achieve with paint. "My earliest pieces, work inspired by the Great Painters, were applauded for their lush ness and for subtle qualities of light seen in old Dutch and French oil paintings. In the 14 years I've worked on a new (Continued On Back Page) Huntsinger, Edwards File For Commission With only one week left in the filing period, a former county commissioner and an incumbent filed their candida cies for the Polk County Board of Commissioners recently.
