Lewis Road Extension Subdivision (Garton family)
Description
The Garton family wants to split their 100-acre farm into five lots so siblings and parents can live there, extending Lewis Road about 100 feet. Approved — but they must build the extension to full county standards, not the existing road condition.
Impact summary
Could set a countywide precedent on when families dividing farmland must meet full road standards; decision now waits until June.
