(KNZA)--The Doniphan County Commission has approved a zoning change that will allow a pet rescue center to operate on property in Bendena.
On the recommendation of the county Planning Commission, the Commission unanimously Monday approved a zoning change from A-1 agriculture to A-1 conditional use for property located at 887 Friendship Road.
Village View Farms Inc. recently donated an old school building and Quonset hut at the location to the non-profit group, Doniphan County Pet Rescue, which was launched in 2020.
The school building was built in 1917 and served as Bendena High School until Midway High School was constructed. It was then used as Bendena Elementary School until Midway Elementary School was built. After that, Doniphan County Education Cooperative utilized the building. The building hasn't been used for several years.
