Edward Sifuentes The county's Planning Commission endorsed a proposed noise ordinance on Friday that is upsetting off-road enthusiasts who say the stricter rules could prevent them from playing in their own backyards. But there are other backcountry residents who say the new rules don't go far enough, and they would like even lower noise levels. The ordinance must be approved by the Board of Supervisors before it can take effect. The commission voted 5-1 to recommend to the Board of Supervisors that it approve the proposal when members meet Nov. 19. |

A contentious plan to map and designate trails for off-highway vehicles in the Stanislaus National Forest is heading down the homestretch. Sometime in the next three weeks, a list of alternatives to the original proposal will be released, said Jerry Snyder, Stanislaus National Forest spokesman. At that time, the alternatives will be up for public review and comments. Early next spring, the Environmental Impact Report is scheduled for release. The Forest Service is not ready to say what the alternatives will be. |

Edward Sifuentes Proposed changes to the county's noise ordinance are upsetting off-road enthusiasts who say the new rules could severely restrict where they can play in the backcountry. Residents concerned about noise from off-road vehicles said the proposed rules are not strict enough. As part of an update to some county regulations, officials with the Planning and Land Use Department are proposing stricter noise rules in the unincorporated county ---- particularly with regard to off-road vehicles. |

The off-highway vehicle issue has raged on both sides for months. The Hi-Desert Star’s Saturday “Our View” calls for civil discourse from all sides. The problem is not the amount of people gathering without permits or the desert’s being destroyed, it is that local government has failed the citizens in San Bernardino County. I don’t know exactly what the OHV ordinance or other laws state. However, I call the sheriff’s department about the same violators often. They come here, say they don’t see anything, turn around and leave. |
