Board rezones 6 acres in Town of Newton to Agricultural Residential
Summary
The Marquette County Board adopted Ordinance (Resolution 29-2025) to reclassify roughly 6.0 acres in Section 14, Town of Newton, to AG-3(5) Agricultural Residential after a Planning and Zoning Committee recommendation and public hearing.
The Marquette County Board of Supervisors on May 20 approved Resolution 29-2025, amending Chapter 70 of the County Code to rezone approximately 6.0 acres in the southwest corner of the North 35 acres of the southwest quarter of the northeast quarter, Section 14, Town of Newton, to AG-3(5).
Introduced by Supervisors David Benson and John Bennett, the resolution cited the Planning and Zoning Committee's public hearing and recommendation, noting the committee found the land "better suited for the use allowed in the Agricultural Residential District zoning classification" and consistent with town and county comprehensive plans. The change was placed on the consent agenda and approved as part of routine business. The ordinance text describes the legal parcel boundaries in the board record.
