A development company
that wants to rezone land
the former Washington
School building sits on
will get another chance
when the matter goes
before the City Council
Thursday evening.
Representatives from
the Washington School
Alumni Association
objected to the rezone
because they view the
building as a historic
landmark.

building fund.
The donation to CATS
will be used for spay/neuter
costs and other veterinary
services.
Hoover said the Angel
donation program worked
so well the clinic will con-
tinue to operate it through-
out the year. Donors can
make a cash contribution of
one dollar or more, which
will be posted at the clinic
office in the form of paw
print cards.
"All money stays local
and is used for the build-
ing fund, vet services,
and spay/neuter services,"
Hoover said. She noted the
clinic provided seven spay/
neuter services for CATS
and Perkins Animal Shelter
during the past week.

Perkins Veterinary Clinic at

and supplies to two local
pet shelters.
"For the past four or five
years we've had a 'Doggie

She explained that during
the Christmas season,
clinic clients were given
the opportunity to donate
pet supplies or cash for the
local shelters.
Items collected at the
clinic or in drop boxes
throughout town include
blankets, shampoo, food,
treats, blankets, leashes,

An ex-convict --who served
time for conspiracy to commit
assault and battery with intent
to kill -- and his girlfrie:l
have been charged wi!l
cultivating marijuana at their
bottles of plant nutrients and
growth stimulator, along with
a five-gallon bucket contain-
ing a large amount of loose
green leafy substance, the
affidavit alleged.
In the laundry room, strings
were tied wall to wall near
the ceiling from which were
four large bud stalks from
marijuana plants hanging and
drying, the affidavit alleged.
Three more bud stalks were on
an upper shelf in the laundry
room, the affidavit alleged.
In the master bedroom was
$800 in cash, most of which
was in $100 bundles, the affi-
davit alleged. Inside a cabinet
in the bedroom were 12
marijuana plants, each about
eight inches tall, the affidavit
alleged.
Found in the bathtub in the
master bathroom was one
large plastic tub with five
thriving marijuana plants in
small round rocks with their
root systems submerged into
water, the affidavit alleged.
There were two large fluores-
cent fights above the tub, the
affidavit alleged.
"In a shelf above this were
several (excess of 50) bottles
of different types of root
stimulator growth nutrients,
etc. Bags of bone meal and
bat guano and other fertilizers
were noted. Next to the sink,
in a plastic drawer system was
one log book with handwrit-
ten notes depicting strains of
marijuana, effects and yields
of growth," the affidavit
alleged.

Nathaniel David Gonzalez,
31, who got out of prison
in 2006, remains jailed on
$100,000 bail on a six-count
charge including possession
of a rifle and shotgun after a
former felony conviction. He is
due to retum to court Feb. 6.
His girlfriend, Kendra Jean

on $50,000 bail, but she was
geleased Friday after her bond
was reduced to $7,500 cash,

to return to court Feb. 6.
The couple were arrested

Stillwater on Jan. 10, court
records show.
No one was home that morn-

also live, according to Nack's
affidavit.
"The house was in a state
of disarray and marijuana and
pipes were present throughout
the house in reach of small
children," Nack alleged in his
affidavit.
Found in the living room
were more than 20 smok-
ing pipes, two small baggies
with residue that field-tested
as methamphethamine, a
marijuana grinder, a bag of
children's medication, half of
a Xanax bar, three assorted
pills, marijuana and two long
guns described as a .22-caliber
Stevens rifle and a 12 gauge
Stevens shotgun, the affidavit
alleged.
