Road hearing draws Madison township residents to court
A large Madison township turnout is expected at the Chrisenberry road hearing in the courthouse at 10 a m tomorrow before a State Tax Board member. Petitions for and against the road have circulated, with many signatures. The plan would run from Fern east to the Ouakalla neighborhood along the old Big Four right of way, needing a bridge over Big Walnut Creek using existing abutments. County commissioners approved the petition for construction but a remonstrance objected to the bond issue. After the remonstrance, supporters gathered more signatures to present at the hearing.
