Board directs staff to solicit three-year cropland lease for Hoover Ridge property
Summary
Madison County authorized staff to solicit proposals for a three-year cropland lease of roughly 31.8 acres at Hoover Ridge, prohibiting sludge application and seeking fair market value; motion passed unanimously.
County Administrator Jonathon Weakley returned the question of future use for about 31.8 acres of undeveloped Hoover Ridge property to the Board and recommended another agricultural lease to keep the property maintained while providing modest revenue. Weakley said continued farming would avoid maintenance costs while preserving future flexibility for county use.
Supervisor Jud Buchanan moved to direct County staff and legal counsel to solicit proposals for a three-year cropland lease, with a prohibition on sludge application and a requirement to seek fair market value. Supervisor Mike Snider seconded the motion, which passed unanimously (Aye: Yowell, Jewett, Buchanan, Snider, Sharman).
