Monroe Planning Head Lester Stone to Retire
Monroe planning commission members reviewed retirement plans for chairman Lester Stone after more than a decade leading the body. Stone, first named chairman in 1966, was praised for guiding two zoning ordinances, with remaining members including Mayor Gordon Reed and Councilman Seth Johnston. A retail carpet store project on Cincinnati Dayton Road received a zoning permit, and a decorative driveway structure on a corner lot was deemed allowable if not obstructing street view. The Nazarene church picnic shelter project was noted as needing no action but must remain a shelter per regulations.
