Johnson County denies radio tower request after months of legal delays
Johnson County Commissioners have been postponing a decision regarding Cedar Grove Broadcasting's request to build a radio transmitter on county land. The delay is due to an ongoing investigation by the county attorney's office. Meanwhile, the identity of the current county attorney remains unclear, as public records only mention the swearing-in of several elected officials in 2025, without specifying the county attorney's name.
The commissioners have been grappling with Cedar Grove Broadcasting's proposal for some time. The request, which involves erecting a radio transmitter on county-controlled land, has been discussed repeatedly but not yet resolved. The holdup is due to the county attorney's office conducting an investigation related to the matter.
Commission Chairman Bill Novotny and the current county attorney, whose name remains unknown, have both addressed the delay. They have been working together to draft a denial letter to Cedar Grove Broadcasting, indicating that a decision has been made. However, the specifics of this decision and the reasons behind the denial have not been publicly disclosed.
The Johnson County Commissioners have finally reached a decision regarding Cedar Grove Broadcasting's request to build a radio transmitter on county land. Despite the delay, the commission and the county attorney's office have been collaborating to formally deny the request. The identity of the current county attorney, who has been involved in this process, remains uncertain.
