Developer outlines like‑for‑like replacement of asphalt plant; board told filtration and setbacks will control impacts
Summary
LaBella Associates presented a plan for Enterprise Stone Limestone to replace an existing asphalt mix plant with a new drum plant at 5466 Jenn, asking to adjust a property line and annex roughly 5.04 acres; planners said the project would consolidate operations, add filtration and increase efficiency, and must complete site‑plan review before moving forward.
At the town board meeting on June 15, David Stuts of LaBella Associates detailed plans for Enterprise Stone Limestone Co. to replace an existing hot mix asphalt operation at 5466 Jenn with a proposed drum plant.
Stuts said the new equipment is intended as an in‑place replacement that will be more efficient than the current units and will not change the plant’s general footprint. He explained the applicant is requesting a property‑line adjustment to annex about 5.04 acres (lot references given in the presentation) so the buildings and proposed structures will lie on a single parcel.
“There are no planned changes to the surrounding site or the equipment. The equipment will replace existing equipment that’s currently on the location,” Stuts said, and he described filtration upgrades and consolidation of three batch plants on the site into a single plant.
Town planning staff (Matt Fishion) said the project reduces an existing nonconformity and that the proposed filtration and energy‑efficiency improvements were positive, but the project must complete the formal site‑plan and environmental review before any permits are issued.
Stuts noted setback requirements where the site abuts residential zoning, including rear yard and height‑triggered setbacks for structures over 30 feet. He said the highest structure would be well within the setback distances. The board asked for copies of plans and confirmed that any work will be subject to the usual review process and applicable zoning and environmental standards.
No vote was taken; staff advised that the application will proceed through the town’s review and site‑plan approval process. The board flagged the need for property‑line and annexation paperwork as part of forthcoming applications.
