In a recent government meeting, significant developments were approved, including the expansion of a local RV park into a KOA campground and the Spring Hill subdivision project.

David Forstrom presented plans for the RV park, which will be transformed into a KOA campground, known for its high standards. The expansion will feature larger RV sites—almost three times the required minimum size of 1,200 square feet—along with new amenities such as a dog park, pavilion, pickleball court, and splash pads. Although the number of RV sites will be reduced, the focus on quality and amenities was emphasized. The project received unanimous approval from the commissioners after a brief discussion.

The meeting also addressed the Spring Hill subdivision, which aims to develop 48 single-family lots and two neighborhood commercial lots on approximately 27.3 acres. The project, submitted by Henderson Engineering and Consulting, is located on East Highway 90 and is zoned as rural village properties. While the development was conditionally approved, concerns were raised regarding the lack of proposed amenities and the accuracy of the acreage reported. The applicant clarified that the lots would be on septic systems and that a homeowners association (HOA) would be established to manage common areas and infrastructure.

Both projects reflect ongoing efforts to enhance local infrastructure and community amenities, with the commissioners indicating a busy agenda for future meetings. The meeting concluded with a discussion about potentially splitting future sessions to accommodate an increasing number of proposals.
