Contentious gravel pit conditional-use permit returns to committee after large public turnout

The Land Use & UW-Extension committee held two meetings addressing a proposed gravel pit, reclamation plan, and an associated asphalt plant on E. Solberg Lake Road; one meeting drew more than 60 attendees. The applicant revoked the Asphalt Plant conditional-use permit application; the committee passed a proposed list of 15 conditions for the gravel pit application. If the landowner accepts those conditions, Act 67 requires the committee to agree to the CUP unless substantial evidence exists to deny it.
