Carbondale home-rule fight over land sale blocked by suit
In Jackson County, a petition seeks to set aside Carbondale’s Monday night home-rule ordinance that would let the city bypass state land sale laws for a 231 unit housing project for low income handicapped and elderly residents. The case adds to a pending suit by landlord Kenneth Marquard alleging a prior private sale violated five year limits and questions the city’s actions amid a statewide home-rule debate.
