The city council and city board in Lexington, Missouri are currently in a legal dispute over the construction of a fence, according to a report by KMBC Kansas City. The lawsuit has been filed as the two entities cannot come to an agreement on the issue.
The disagreement stems from a fence that the city board approved for construction, but the city council believes violates city code regulations. The council argues that the fence is too tall and is not in compliance with city ordinances.
The lawsuit has caused tension between the two groups, with neither side willing to back down. The city council has taken legal action in an effort to ensure that the fence is brought into compliance with city regulations.
Residents in the area are also divided on the issue, with some supporting the city board’s decision to approve the fence while others side with the city council’s concerns about the fence’s height and compliance with city laws.
The lawsuit has raised questions about the relationship between the city council and city board, and the extent of their respective powers. It has also brought attention to the importance of following city regulations and codes when constructing property within city limits.
As the legal battle continues, it remains to be seen how the issue will be resolved and what implications it may have on future city projects and decisions. Both sides are firmly entrenched in their positions, making it difficult to reach a compromise.
