Cemetery protection in development

Commercial Project Setback Compliance
A rezoned commercial development near Yellow Creek hit a snag: the building board unanimously denied a variance because one building sits in the setback, though the rest of the site plan was approved. The developer has about 90 days to fix that one area, and the county attorney explained the layered process to Commissioner Dawson.
