The Murray County Board of Commissioners voted on May 20 to approve Conditional Use Permit #1430 for Red Rock Rural Water to erect and operate a telecommunications tower in the Agriculture and Floodplain Overlay Districts in Part of the S1/2 SE1/4, Section 20, Des Moines River Township.

Commissioner Loy Woelber moved to approve the permit with the Planning Commission’s findings and two special conditions; Jackie Meier seconded and the motion passed.
