Residents on both sides of the Marion and Shelby county line are concerned over the possible rezoning of agricultural land that would allow for industrial growth near I-74 and Acton Road.
"What's going in right now, I can't see how that's really in our region's long-term best interest," Lisa Wojihoski-Schaler, a Shelby County resident said.
"A number of properties within a mile radius have flooding to the point where it's gotten up to their houses," Wojihoski-Schaler said. "We need studies to determine what's going to be happening with the underlying aquifer that's out here," Wojihoski-Schaler said."How it's going to affect groundwater, what steps are actually being taken to deal with the flooding?"
"You throw in all that water that goes on 198 acres and our property will be flooded, the neighborhood will be flooded," Julie Zoeller, a Marion County Resident said."We need that flood plain to stay because there is nowhere for that water to go?" Zoeller said.
