BOONE, Iowa---Even though the final decision rests in the hands of the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, the Boone County Board of Supervisors once again, went on record as opposing a plan to expand a hog confinement operation in Jackson Township. William Whitley proposed the expansion of his current facility which required a Master Matrix Review. Supervisor Steve Duffy said the Board doesn't want Boone County to turn into another Wright County and considered the location of the facility a legal invasion of the privacy and property rights of the 85 neighbors opposed to the business. Whitley and his current manager Fred Pepin were at the hearing.
