Summary

Madison County commissioners approved a request from Lyon Excavation to expand an exempt mining permit at the Lloyd's Faby Estate from its current 4-acre exemption to a larger permit; applicant said he has been 'mining at the Lloyd's Faby Estate' and sought county approval to expand.

The Planning and Zoning Commission approved a request from Lyon Excavation to increase the size of an existing mining permit at the Lloyd's Faby Estate.

Applicant Scott Lyon told the commission he currently holds a 4-acre exempt permit and asked to enlarge that permit. “I've been mining at the Lloyd's Faby Estate up there, and I'm just asking for approval of a bigger permit,” Lyon said.

Commissioners asked whether there were questions and then a commissioner moved to grant the request; the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote. No public opposition was recorded during the item as presented in the transcript.

The approval grants the applicant authority under the county permitting process to proceed with the larger permit as discussed; the transcript did not specify the new permitted acreage, bond or reclamation measures, nor did it record any formal conditions attached to the approval.
