Public hearing set for family cemetery on Highway 270; commissioners will consider on Dec. 29

Kenneth and Romarie Morrow attended a public hearing before the Pittsburg County Board of County Commissioners on Dec. 22, 2025 to request establishment of a family cemetery on Tract 11 along Highway 270 in District 1.

Chairman Charlie Rogers stated the location and the legal description for the proposed cemetery during the 10:00 a.m. hearing. The Morrows said they sought to establish a family cemetery; no members of the public spoke in opposition. Because the county could not take final action that day, Rogers said the matter would be placed on the board's Dec. 29 agenda for formal consideration and a decision.

The hearing record shows the Morrows present in support and no opposition; the board did not vote on the cemetery application at the Dec. 22 session.
