Franklin County commissioners approved a request to split a 42‑acre parcel to create a 4‑acre lot (to be rezoned AR‑3) and rezone the remaining acreage to A‑2; planning staff recommended approval and there was no major discussion.

The Franklin County Board of Commissioners voted Nov. 5 to approve application 250900544 to create a 4‑acre lot from a 42‑acre parcel commonly known as 3058 Kingman Road, located about 2 miles east of Ottawa.
