Randolph County
Maxwell vs Randolph County Update:
Farmers Aaron Chalfant, Gary Foulke and Greg Sickels all raise pigs for Maxwell Foods, and last month they filed improvement location permits a week after the board of commissioners approved a moratorium. The moratorium blocks all CAFO and confined feeding operation (CFO) expansions. As a result, their permits were denied.Chalfant, Foulke and Sickels are entitled to hearings with the board of zoning appeals because their permits were denied, and those hearings are scheduled to be heard tonight in the 7 p.m. meeting.
Dan McInerny, one of the Indianapolis attorneys representing Maxwell Foods, said, “We do plan on asking for a continuance.”
Update: The continuance was granted until April 21st (link).
