APC reconsiders Parker request

The Kosciusko County Area Plan Commission (APC), at its July 1 meeting, considered again the request of Jay Parker to rezone 38.625 acres of land from agricultural to commercial district. The property is located on the east side of SR 15,1,700 feet north of Levi Lee Road in Plain Township. The APC had previously recommended to the county commissioners that this rezoning be approved. After considering the petition the commissioners had returned the petition to the APC for reconsideration of soil drainage and traffic considerations. APC members reviewed all aspects of the petition and concluded that one area of low ground would best be used for water retention with no attempt to build on it. Ron Sharp moved for approval and Don Ahrns seconded the motion with the comment that the state will control the traffic concerns and the required plat approval will regulate how the land around the low ground will be used With Hal Strong objecting and stating that he had second thoughts since the previous commission action, rezoning was recommended to the commissioners by a vote of five to one. New Member Present This was the first meeting for member George M. Miller, Webster Lake, who is the new appointee from North Webster to replace retiring member, Sid Markley. Miller stated after the meeting that he is impressed with the v Library has six balloons returned The Milford Public Library is now half way through with its Summer Reading Program which has been a great success. There were 190 children who signed up and the attendance has averaged 120 children during each program. On July 1, there were 105 Pizza Hut certificates given away as awards to children who read the required amount of books over the first four weeks of the program. The library also had six balloons returned from the June 10 balloon launch. The names of the children receiving a letter are: Josh Cline, balloon found in Collins; Brandy Levernier, balloon found in Columbia; Darcy Murphy, Coesse; Jamie Levernier, Columbia City; Philip Fitch, Decatur; and Amber Hobbs, Deca tor. The children have really been doing a great job reading due to the 3,000 books that have been checked out of the children’s department this month.

other members of the commission and that he considers it an honor and responsibility to serve. / Other Business Tjte APC tabled the petition of ILObert C. Leiter for a preliminary plat for a residential subdivision on a two acre tract of land because the required affidavit stating that adjacent property owners had been notified was not on file. The property is located on the north side of CR 300 N, one-half mile east of SR 15 in Plain Township. Sharp said this is the area near the Warsaw airport where the city of Warsaw had some years ago operated a landfill operation. He stated that there had been two cease and desist orders from the state ordering the city to stop the landfill. Dan Richard spoke of the need for water testing because of the proximity of the landfill and the fact that the State Board of Health will need to rule on the safety of wells in that area.

“It was a fantastic day for the District’s annual Cub Scout Day Camp,” said camp director Dick McCleary, who added that he has waited 12 years to see 100 Cub Scouts attend the day camp. “Last year a record was set at 92, but short of 100,” McCleary said. “This year not only saw a 74 percent increase over last year with 160 registered Cub Scouts, but for the first time, every Pack in the District was represented.” Cub Scout Packs represented at day camp were: Jefferson School, 3715; North Webster, 3726; Madison School, 3747; Milford, 3761; Pierceton, 3761; Lincoln School, 3767; Claypool, 3770; Akron, 3771; Mentone, 3777 ; Morman Church, 3776; Sacred Heart, 3819; and Syracuse, 3828.
