In a recent government meeting, community members voiced their concerns regarding a proposed rezoning application for a mobile home in a flood-prone area. The applicant, who has been working to clean up the surrounding ditch area, emphasized that there has been no significant flooding in the location over the years. However, local resident Linda Woods expressed strong opposition to the application, citing the presence of multiple camper trailers in the vicinity, which she claimed were being used for unauthorized living arrangements.

Woods, who lives nearby, argued that the trailers have become a source of disturbance, alleging that they attract undesirable activities and residents. She insisted that such trailers should be located in designated camper parks rather than residential neighborhoods. The applicant clarified that the request was specifically for a mobile home, not recreational vehicles (RVs), and assured that any existing RVs on the property would need to be removed to meet zoning standards.

The meeting highlighted the ongoing tension between development and community concerns about safety and neighborhood integrity. As the discussion concluded, the board encouraged further dialogue between the applicant and residents to address the issues raised.
