This project <br />was completed and the concrete batch plant was dismantled. To the best of our knowledge, there <br />were no conflicts with this project or the operation of the batch plant during the 2008 construction <br />season. <br /> <br />At the public hearings with both the township and Dane County ZLR, there was discussion about <br />long term CUP for concrete batch plants for highway work in the area. A consensus was reached <br />that we use the 2008 construction season as a trial time to establish whether there would be any <br />conflicts with the neighborhood and the surrounding area. Again, we are not aware of any <br />conflicts. We now have another project in the area (Park Street) and we will need a CUP to <br />complete the project. We feel it would be a good time to consider a long-term CUP. <br /> <br />This proposal is for citing concrete batch plants at the Meinholz Quarry as necessary when <br />concrete paving work is being done in the area. This is not a request for a permanent plant <br />location at the Meinholz Quarry but a request for the ability to site batch plants, as projects <br />reqUIre. <br /> <br />We will be presenting our proposal before the town plan commission and town board. I <br />encourage anyone with questions or concerns to attend these meetings. <br /> <br />Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns prior to the meeting. My direct dial <br />telephone number is 608-849-0019 or via cell at 608-445-4416. I would be happy to speak with <br />you via phone or in-person. <br /> <br />~ . cerel'f,... .i'/ <br />!t'; L ~;:,___. <br />Tim Ge07 <br />
