A proposed ordinance re vision concerning county plan ning could raise more than a few eyebrows, according to Morrow County planning di rector, Dave Moon. Moon said the ordinance Is being updated and strength ened at the same time. The updating is to meet state laws and standards. Other changes are also being Incorporated because of "problems we've had with subdivisions In the last year" due to "increased growth," Moon said.

By state statute, Moon said, the planning commission is not required to regulate minor partitions. It Is required by law to regulate major parti tions. Minor partitioning Is to di vide an area or tract of land Into two or three parcels within a calendar year, which does not include the creation of a road or street. Major partitioning would create such a road or street. The new ordinance, which would effect all the incor porated areas of Morrow County, sets up procedures by which applications for par titions shall be made through the planning office.
