FOP firing range appeal challenges county permit
Neighbors near the Fraternal Order of Police lodge north of Lone Star Lake filed an appeal in Douglas County District Court against the Douglas County Commission Oct 26 permit approval for a firing range. The fight stems from a five year dispute over whether a permit was required and how noise and safety concerns are handled, with the suit not alleging the earlier county-favored ruling on permit necessity. Judge Michael Malone was assigned to the case, with no hearings scheduled.
