Stone County deputy suspended without pay
A Stone County deputy has been suspended without pay after being arrested in Georgia on two counts on two counts of sexual battery. Lucian James Nevatt, 24, Nixa, was in Georgia recently for U.S. Army Reserve annual training. Richmond County (Ga.) Sheriff’s Office investigators claim Nevatt was in an Augusta (Ga.) bar on the night of June 15 and early-morning hours of June 16 when he allegedly tried – in two separate incidents – to force two women to have sex with him in a public restroom. Following a complaint from one of the two women, Richmond County officers arrested Nevatt later on the morning of June 16 at his Augusta hotel. The second woman filed her complaint later than the first. Nevatt was arrested again on June 17 on a second charge of sexual battery. Sexual battery is a misdemeanor charge in Georgia. Richmond County authorities released Nevatt after he posted bond. Military authorities reportedly returned him to Missouri. Penindg further investigation results, Stone County Sheriff Richard Hill suspended Nevatt without pay and reported the incident to the state’s Peace Officers Standards and Training (POST) unit in Jefferson City.

Local property owners displeased with developer’s plan
About three dozen Stone County property owners turned out for a recent local public meeting to tell a Kansas City-area developer they’re not interested in what he’s peddling.

BACKGROUND
Developer Jim Grice, an attorney and a partner in SJ Branson Development, LLC, owns about 150 lots in the upscale Ozark Mountain Village subdivision off Route DD.Grice’s lots are not in a single cluster, but, rather, are scattered throughout OMV.For three years running, Grice has sought state tax credits from the Missouri Housing Development Commission in preparation for an attempt to build low-income rental housing on at least 48 of the approximately 150 lots he has situated among the upscale OMV homes.

Generally, MHDC holds one annual round of public hearings to consider citizen input before approving tax-credit applications like the one Grice submitted prior to previous efforts to build the low-income OMV housing. Grice applied three consecutive years.
He was denied three consecutive years. read more...
