Jackson County CAFO battle continues
A long legal journey lies ahead for an approved 8,000-hog confined feeding operation in Redding Township, says a Columbus attorney.Pete King, who represents Jennings Water Inc., said Thursday at least two appeals will be made regarding the Tuesday decision by the Jackson County Board of Zoning Appeals to allow Talara Lykins, Elizabethtown, to build two 400-by-80-foot hog barns on a 10-acre tract of land northeast of Reddington.
The first step in an appeal concerning the issuance of Lykins’ Indiana Department of Environmental Management permit is scheduled for Monday. The pretrial conference will take place before an administrative judge at IDEM’s offices.

Thankfully, the voting residents of Redding Township are voicing their beliefs. Hopefully, they will continue to demonstrate their beliefs in the next election. Until then I wish them the best in the battle ahead.
