Four property owners sue over Madison County zoning plan
In Madison Circuit Court four Stoney Creek Township property owners petition for writ of certiorari and injunction challenging the Madison County Planning Commission and others. They argue the commission was illegally constituted and the zoning decision to re zone two acres from agricultural to industrial three is arbitrary and not properly advertised.
