PUBLIC NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Morgan County Planning Commission will hold a public hearing on Thursday, November 5, 2026, at 6:30 p.m., or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard, to receive public comment and consider proposed amendments to Chapter 155 of the Morgan County Code relating to public notice requirements, public hearings, and land use application procedures.
