Breaking: Study commission OKed

Jay County Commissioners took the first steps Monday in creating a study commission to look at the county’s confined feeding zoning ordinance.
Commissioners unanimously approved making a seven-person advisory committee to study the current ordinance with a goal to recommend changes within 90 days.
Commissioner Faron Parr came to the meeting with a preliminary list of candidates for the commission, covering such backgrounds as agriculture, environment and education, economic development and business and health. With these in mind, much of the discussion focused on how many people should make up the board, ranging from as little as five to a possible 11-member committee.
