Commissioner says residents object to proposed injection well; county says it has no authority to intervene
Summary
Commissioner Floyd Coffman reported residents in District #2 object to an injection well installation and told the board he did not believe the county had authority to object; Commissioner Monty Piearcy said the county has no input on the well (transcript segment appears truncated).
During commissioner comments on Jan. 15, Commissioner Floyd Coffman said residents in District #2 have objected to a proposed injection well installation and that he had been contacted about whether the county would object.
Coffman said he did not believe the county had authority in the situation. Commissioner Monty Piearcy is recorded saying the county "has no input on the wel" (transcript truncates after "wel"); the minutes indicate both commissioners view the county as lacking regulatory authority over the project. The minutes do not record public comment, a formal vote, or any directive to staff on the matter.
Because the transcript segment recording Piearcy's remark is truncated, the minutes do not show whether additional clarification was offered; any further steps or appeals by residents are not recorded in these minutes.
