Johnson County to consider 10-year conditional use permit renewal for Penny's Concrete at New Century Air Center
Summary
Planning staff presented a conditional use permit renewal for Penny's Concrete Inc. at New Century Air Center, noting the original CUP (approved 2011) expired in 2021; the zoning board recommended approval with a 10-year term and the item was placed on the consent agenda.
Johnson County planning staff asked commissioners to consider a conditional use permit (CUP) renewal for Penny's Concrete Incorporated to allow continued concrete plant operations, exterior storage and two over‑height buildings on a 6.85‑acre site at New Century Air Center.
The application is filed as Resolution 031-25, Application W25-462-CUP. Jay Leipzig, Planning, Housing and Community Development director, told commissioners the original CUP was approved in 2011 and expired in 2021; staff have been updating records and intend to send reminder letters to operators when permits approach expiration. "There are no issues with this one from a planning perspective or a codes perspective," Leipzig said.
Diane Wicklund of the planning department described the site and said the applicant proposed no changes to operations. She told commissioners the county is not aware of any public complaints and that the applicant has complied with the original CUP’s operational stipulations. Wicklund also reported that the zoning board recommended approval of a new 10‑year term and that no members of the public spoke at the zoning board hearing.
Commissioners commented that the site appears well maintained. Chair and other members asked whether the item should remain on the consent agenda; with no objection, it was left on consent for the upcoming business session.
The record shows staff are proposing routine renewal of an existing industrial CUP with no operational changes; the county did not record a final vote at this agenda review meeting.
