I think everything will work out I just hope they don't try to force changes in the operation of the track to satisfy the neighbors

It doesnt mean that it wont happen, Ronnie isnt going to give up this easy. Exactly how much of a delay this will mean is not known as of now. He will have to talk more with the lawyer and see. The lawyer is going to try and speed things up as much as possible, but I think everyone knows how that can go. I for one am just shocked at how this load of crap can happen. How a VERY few people that dont even live in the area are able to stop something like this after we went through all the correct procedures and had all the approvals just baffles me. It makes you wonder what the point of those boards and commisions even is if the idiots can just get it overthrown.

More money for the lawyers. The fact that a "judge" would not dismiss it, suggests he thinks the landowners have a valid argument (based in Law) that should be heard.

There is no word on exactly when this will be as off yet. I am sure Caroline will be posting something pretty soon I was waiting until I saw the actual papers from the court before writing. : ) I resigned from CountyNewsLIVE.com (used to be MontgomeryAndMe.com) so I can spend more time with my kids. I am not sure if I will be working freelance for them or not and covering the story for them, but if not I will keep doing it here, just because I enjoy doing it. ------------------- Montgomery County’s Judge Keith Sutherland has denied the Motions to Dismiss of Mid America Raceway Park and the Montgomery County Commission. No explanation or reasoning was given. He also entered an Order Granting Leave to File Amended Petition which allowed the Plaintiffs to file a Verified Amended Petition for Review of Writ of Certiorari. This purportedly corrects the items MARP and the County Commission claimed were incorrect in their Motions to Dismiss. The documents are file-stamped December 28, but they did not reach the Montgomery County Circuit Clerk’s office or get entered into CaseNet until Thurs., Jan. 5 when Judge Sutherland appeared for Law Day. Sutherland is the Presiding Judge over the 12th Circuit which consists of Montgomery, Warren, and Audrain Counties. It is now up to the attorneys to request a trial date, unless more motions are filed. Ronnie Moss, lead developer of Mid America Raceway Park, said that he and his partners are not letting this stop them. The Conditional Use Permit which was issued by the County Commission is still in effect and they can legally proceed if they want to. Moss said , “MAR Park is going to continue on. This is just another bump in the road, but if the Good Lord is willing, MAR will prevail. We have a lot of supporters and Montgomery County wants the drag strip as much as MAR wants to call Montgomery County and the City of New Florence our new home. MAR Park will have a big positive economic impact not only for Montgomery County, but also for Warren County and other surrounding counties. ” Moss also said that he and partners Steve Stahlschmidt and Dave Hemsath are going to Kansas City for the NHRA Division 5 track owners meeting on Jan. 20 and 21. Moss said, “We will also have people taking track safety courses and getting more people SFI certified as inspectors. We are also still purchasing stuff for the track and getting more things ready so there is less we have to do after construction is complete. We are still gathering materials which will either be delivered to the property or to our secured location.” Carolyn Gerding carolyngerding@gmail.com

I wonder if John Kienstra is tha same Kienstras that own the General materials ( concrete Co .) might not get the concrete from them now if given the low bid . ;D

I hope the trial goes in favor of MAR. I'll keep my fingers crossed. I wonder if John Kienstra is the same Kienstras that own the General materials ( concrete Co .) might not get the concrete from them now if given the low bid . ;D Sometimes negotiations of subcontract work help turn enemies into allies.
