Tomorrow night homeowners in Rolling Meadows Subdivision along KY 573 are holding a meeting to fight the church and the man starting it.

Everett Priddy was arrested in lexington in 2004 after police say he exposed himself to an officer in a bathroom at Jacobson Park. He pleaded not guilty to indecent exposure and the charges were dismissed. Priddy told 27 Newsfirst Wednesday he did not want to comment on this story.

Other people who oppose the new church say their subdivision is only zoned for residential purposes. However 9 acres have already been sold to Priddy and the New World Missionary Center.
