Jo Elliot, owner of Wild Roots, presented a proposal for a limited events venue with a 200-person capacity, parking for about 100 cars, limited on-site lodging (container homes and glamping), and requested county guidance on a development agreement to address septic, a retention pond, and a potential right-turn lane.
