A draft of Module 1 for Monroe County's County Development Ordinance (CDO) was reviewed at the Nov. 18 meeting of the Ordinance Review Committee. Module 1 focuses on administration, processes, subdivision control, and enforcement.

This project is being led by consultant McBride Dale Clarion. The ordinance is divided into three modules, which the county Plan Commission will review separately but approve as a whole, likely in 2021. The CDO will then move to the Monroe County Commissioners for approval.

Windfree Estates is still requesting all Monroe County Zoning Ordinances concerning our SR zoned subdivision be enforced within the Windfree Estate platted subdivision boundaries

In an email dated January 22, 2018, Monroe County official’s Larry Wilson, Amanda Barge, sheriff’s office, David Schilling, Jason Eakin, Lisa Ridge; Forest Service official’s Chaveas, Michael -FS, Zimmer, Christopher -FS and Federal Law Enforcement Officer Mr. Kidd conspired to willfully deprive Windfree Estates of rights under the current local, state and federal laws by stating Under the doctrine of Federal Preemption, it is unlikely the provisions of the Monroe County Zoning Ordinance could be applied against Forest Service activities you reference. Federal Preemption could also apply as to State regulations. Section 242 of Title 18 makes it a crime for a person acting under color of any law to willfully deprive a person of a right or privilege protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States. Windfree Estates Suburban Residential subdivision has tried for over two years to have current local, state and federal laws enforced. It is not an allowable use to have a Governmental Facility like an open to the general public Hoosier National Forest trailhead in our subdivision; to use Windfree Estates as a Parking Facility for the Governmental Facility or to use Windfree Estates for Amusement and Recreation. We have also requesting enforcement of Indiana Trail Guidelines 2016 Public Law 67, IC 14-19-1-1.5 and we are requesting the enforcement of “Discharging a firearm (including a bow and arrow) is prohibited in or within 150 yards of a developed recreation site, a residence, or any place where people are likely to be” as stated on the USDA website. All requests to date have been denied.
