Assistant States Attorney Jim Twomey stated that the County Commission has a lot of authority in this matter, and the people who live in the area of the proposed incorporation need to be notified of all actions regarding the proposed incorporation. County Planner Jerry McCullough was also present, and Mr. Wieland asked if the County Commission could refer the proposed incorporation to the County Planning Commission for review and input. Mr. Twomey stated that the Commission can do that and they can also request additional information as mentioned in the statutes. Mr. Twomey stated that notification of the presentation of a petition is done within the territory itself, and Mr. Wieland asked if anyone present today was aware of a notification. Mr. Richard Stearns spoke on behalf of several persons in attendance, and he stated that three signs were posted but they were very small and he did not feel they were posted in a very good location. He stated that there is much opposition from the landowners surrounding the area of proposed incorporation, and he asked to be notified in advance when this matter will be discussed again. He also suggested notifying the Stanley Township Board of Supervisors of any information on it. Mr. Wieland suggested that Jim Twomey contact Attorney Jonathan Garaas, who is representing the proponents of the incorporation, and that Mr. Twomey prepare a brief outline as to the steps that the Commission needs to be concerned with.
