Pulaski Council to Consider Tax Abatement for Confined Feeding Operation Tonight

The Pulaski County Council will take comments tonight on a tax abatement request for a confined feeding operation. Derrick and Abbie Stalbaum are seeking a property tax abatement for a facility they’re building on County Road 1050 West in Rich Grove Township. A public hearing will be held before council members make a final decision.

In other business tonight, Clerk JoLynn Behny will discuss the use of CARES Act funding for encoders for the e-poll books. A $25,000 additional appropriation for attorney’s fees related to the legal battle over the proposed Mammoth Solar project will be up for the council’s final approval. Thousands of dollars in budget transfers for the Sheriff’s Office and Emergency Medical Services will also be considered.

Tonight’s Pulaski County Council meeting starts at 7:00 EST in the Pulaski County Highway Garage.
