Cass County zoning officer retiring after 39 years of service

Zoning officer, Denzil Lorton, announced at the Cass County board meeting on March 11th, that he will be retiring. 

Lorton said with all the solar and wind business, the load is getting greater. He has assisted with many rezoning ordinance rewrites in his time with the county and wishes them and his replacement nothing but the best. He will make himself available to whomever the county hires and assist them in anyway he can. Mr. Lorton did recommend Dave Mayes for his replacement. The board thanked Lorton for his years of service.
