The amendment requested by Equine Elite—to reduce the setback radius around CAFOs by 67%—will reduce the stakeholder base by as much as 89%, because a circle of one mile radius covers only 11% of the area marked by a circle of three mile radius.
So, what will happen at subsequent meetings? Will the county commissioners throw in with the big-government bullies from Equine Elite—who don’t care what the residents think—or will they respect the wishes of the people that put them into office?
