Alleged pig farm gets day in court
Judge dismisses one count, plans written order on other in Barrs' suit against county
Grundy County Judge Robert Marsaglia has dismissed one of two counts in a Morris man's suit against Grundy County designed to make the county change his land zoning to potentially allow for a pig farm.
Bruce and Paula Barr were denied by Grundy County a request to rezone their 57 acres at 3245 Southmor Road from Agriculture-Residential zoning to just Agricultural zoning. Throughout the process, numerous neighbors objected to the rezoning because Barr allegedly told one of the neighbors he intended to put in a pig farm on the property.
This summer, the Barrs' original complaint against the county was dismissed, but their lawyer, Frank Cortina, amended the complaint, which is now in court.
