The quarry has been in operation since 1988. The <br /> current conditional use permit, CUP#1759, will in April 2017. The proposed expansion limit end approximately 700 <br /> feet from the Village limits. <br /> OBSERVATIONS: The Finks own approximately 220 acres of land just west of the Village of Mt. Horeb. A portion of <br /> the land, south of Highway 78, is used for Finks Paving and Excavating. The business also operates a quarry on the <br /> site to support the excavating business. The quarry has been in operation since 1988. The site produces <br /> approximately 60,000 tons of aggregate per year. Blasting occurs approximately 3 times per year. The quarry is <br /> proposed to expand to the east, removing the knoll in the center of the property. 50% of the area contains Class II <br /> soils. No other sensitive environmental features observed. The current quarry wall is approximately 1400 feet west of <br /> the Brookstone Ridge Subdivision. Additional information provided in the attached Staff Report. <br /> COMP PLANS: The Town Plan designates this area as an agricultural transition area which will eventually be <br /> annexed into the Village of Mount Horeb. The quarry expansion area is within the Mt. Horeb Urban Service Area. <br /> The Village of Mount Horeb Comprehensive plan designates the area to be used for future planned neighborhood <br /> development. <br /> RESOURCE PROTECTION: The proposal is outside the resource protection area. <br /> 3/28 ZLR: the petition was postponed due to public opposition regarding safety, screening, and reclamation of the <br /> site. <br /> TOWN: Approved as presented. The Village of Mount Horeb also suggested that the CUP should be approved. <br />
