Farmers upset over the proposed overhaul of Elkhart County's zoning ordinance as an seizure of their land rights are now mulling a lawsuit to halt the effort.
The Elkhart County Farm Bureau filed notice this week with Elkhart County officials of its intent to sue if authorities approve the new zoning measure, now in its fifth version labelled Draft E. The notice, dated Monday and filed by Cheyenne lawyer Karen Budd-Falen states, quote, "There is no question that Draft E will result in an unconstitutional 'taking' of private property," . The six-page notice, addressed to the Elkhart County Board of Commissioners and the Elkhart County Plan Commission, offered a multi-pronged attack on the proposed new zoning rules, in the works for the last two years
