Isabella County approves multiple Devos Farms farmland-preservation agreements
Summary
The Isabella County Board of Commissioners voted Oct. 21 to approve Devos Farms Farmland Agreement applications dated Sept. 5, 2025, for parcels in Gilmore Township, Isabella Township and Nottawa Township and to forward the approvals to the MDA-Farmland and Open Space Program; one vote recorded a single dissent on the Nottawa Township item.
The Isabella County Board of Commissioners approved multiple farmland-preservation agreements for Devos Farms on Oct. 21, instructing the county clerk to forward the approved applications dated Sept. 5, 2025 to the MDA-Farmland and Open Space Program.
The board recorded separate motions for four items related to Devos Farms. The minutes list two motions approving the Gilmore Township application (both dated Sept. 5, 2025), a motion approving the Isabella Township application and a motion approving the Nottawa Township application. All motions carried; the Nottawa Township motion recorded one no vote (Commissioner Jerry Jaloszynski).
Motions were moved and seconded by commissioners as recorded in the minutes. The board did not include additional project detail in the minutes—such as parcel identification, acreage, or easement terms—only the application date and forwarding instruction to the MDA-Farmland and Open Space Program.
Because the minutes include what appears to be a duplicate line item for the Gilmore Township application, the practical effect as recorded is that the board approved the Devos Farms application(s) for Gilmore Township, Isabella Township and Nottawa Township and instructed the clerk to transmit those approvals to the state program.
