In a recent government meeting, officials discussed the implementation of restrictive covenants aimed at managing subdivision activities without public road access. The covenants, which have been effective in addressing challenges related to private drives, require county authorization for any further subdivision. The Chancellor Clerk has executed these covenants, which are now eligible for recording in land records. The board president was authorized to execute and file these covenants, ensuring communication with property owners.

Additionally, the board approved a mutual aid agreement between the county and the 172nd Airlift Wing of the U.S. Air Force for emergency fire response. This agreement formalizes a collaborative effort that was previously demonstrated during a recent incident involving an 18-wheeler fire on the interstate. The Airlift Wing provided specialized firefighting equipment to assist local responders, highlighting the importance of this partnership in managing unique fire emergencies. The agreement ensures that both parties can call upon each other for assistance in future incidents.
