Road ruling upholds Iowa County ownership of LL Avenue
A judge ruled Jan. 13 that Iowa County owns LL Avenue north of Marengo and retains control over it after a dispute with farmer Rick Gates. The case began with a 2003 notice to stop using the road for livestock and to install fences, while Gates claimed adverse possession and the road’s abandonment. The county seeks access to the Simmons wildlife area via the road and contends the road was never abandoned.
