Commission approves Barnes parcel split for sale to adjoining owner
Summary
The Planning Commission approved a roughly equal split of a 43.287‑acre Barnes parcel so the south half can be sold to neighbor Joseph Brown for a new single‑family home; Joe Brown said the purchase would let him 'walk' and keep his family nearby.
Stephen Pope presented Case 1641 for Dustin and Carol Barnes, requesting a division of roughly 43.3 acres into a north tract (about 21.9 acres) and a south tract (about 21.4 acres) so the south half can be sold to adjacent owner Joseph Brown for a future single‑family home. Pope described the south tract as having contour and a valley overlook; Dustin Barnes confirmed the property is pasture and woods with no row crops.
Joe Brown told the commission the purchase will allow him to live on one level as he ages and keep family nearby. Celeste Caplinger moved to accept Case 1641 and the motion was seconded and approved by roll call.
