Carbondale Denies Zoning Change Over Lagoon Permit Issue
Carbondale City Council rejected Stanley Dean's 4.75 acre rezoning from agriculture to high density residential on the south side, citing lack of EPA and local permits for a privately built sewage lagoon serving adjacent duplexes. Neighbors argued the lagoon bypassed approvals and zoning should protect them. Dean promised EPA paperwork by June 15 and defended his actions as above-board.
