Odor Control Study in Parsons Clears Legal Powers
A Parsons council study to define the city's legal authority over odors from a large cattle feed lot on the north edge of town began after a Monday meeting. City manager Will B. Tschudy and city attorney Glenn Jones were tasked to oversee the analysis. Operators of the 190 acre feed lot with 18,000 to 20,000 cattle proposed a change in animal rations as a possible cause of increased odors but indicated a return to former rations may occur. The lot costs about $14,000 daily in feed and employs 32 people.
