The Rush County Area Plan Commission recently continued a public hearing on their decision regarding a recommendation on rezoning a mobile home district to residential in the community of Milroy.

The commission passed along favorable recommendations to the county’s other governing bodies — the town of Carthage and the town of Glenwood and the Rush County Commissioners — on an amendment to the City Zoning Ordinance. However, they made no recommendation to the same governing bodies regarding allowing tattoo parlors in the City Business District with a special exception.

The APC approved four primary and eight secondary plat approvals for various locations in the county.

Primary plat approvals were granted to

n John W. Swain Estate, 4765 North CR 800W, Arlington with Pam Beckner agent for a single lot subdivision of 18 acres from a parent tract of 80 acres in Section 11 of Posey Township.
