Columbia County

MILLVILLE, COLUMBIA COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) - Some people build swing sets for their grandkids… but Michael Chorba of Columbia County has taken that a step further. He's refurbished an old rollercoaster on his property. However, keeping the ride has been a journey full of twists and turns, because officials say it violates local zoning laws.

"Some people collect or buy antique cars or fix them up, this is very similar, it's just a lot more fun," said Chorba.

Chorba has a yard full of refurbished amusement park rides for his grandkids to enjoy.
