🛑 STOP THE REZONING OF 3940 and 0  MORTON BEND!

Protect Our Homes. Preserve Our Land.

The peaceful, agricultural character of Morton Bend is under threat. A proposal has been submitted to rezone  two parcels 3940 and 0 Morton Bend from Agricultural Residential (AR) to Heavy Industrial (HI) — and we need your voice to STOP IT!

---

🚨 What This Means for You:

Increased Noise & Air Pollution
Heavy industrial sites bring constant noise, truck traffic, and potential chemical emissions.

Lower Property Values
Industrial zones can drastically reduce the value of nearby homes and land.

Environmental Risk
Our farmland, water sources, and wildlife habitats are at risk from industrial runoff and waste.

Safety Concerns
More industrial traffic means more large trucks on our rural roads — increasing the risk of accidents.

---

Morton Bend is a place for families, farms, and quiet living — not factories.
