staff has been working with County FloQd Control District in an
effort to solve the problem of the Leach and McVickers Canyon

Mr. Miller reported this is a proposal to construct a 2400 square
foot convenience market and self-service gas station on .75 acres
on the northeast corner of Railroad Canyon Road and Casino Drive.
