(KLZA)-- A meeting to discuss Holt County, Missouri landowners agreeing to a plan to tie into a federal levee system extending from Atchison County, Missouri all the way through Holt County is planned for Friday afternoon beginning at 1.
The meeting will be held at the Holt County Courthouse and will be attended by Holt and Atchsion County Commissioners, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and State Emergency Management Agency representatives.
The Corps of Engineeers is developing a plan to set back the existing federal levees.
The Mound City News reports that during a recent meeting of Holt County landowners it was noted that land between the proposed federal levee and the Missouri River could not be farmed or have structures built on it.
Holt County Commissioners are encouraging landowners, especially those who own land in the floodplain to attend the meeting.
