Title
Public Hearing: Application #PL2023-176 - Special Use Permit for concrete batch plant - 2250 NW Quarry Park Road; Clarkson Construction Company, applicant.
Body
Issue/Request:
The applicant requests approval of an SUP to allow the operation of a concrete batch plant on industrial property for a period of 10 years. The proposed concrete batch plant will be located on a parcel on which an existing asphalt plant has operated for the past 55 years. At this time, the asphalt plant has been or is in process of deconstruction and removal. No new general site improvements such as driveways, parking lots, or permanent structures are associated with the application. The batch plant will be located within the boundaries of the activity area for the existing asphalt plant facility. The proposed concrete batch plant is a temporary, modular, mobile facility whose initial primary purpose will be to serve the City’s Colbern Rd construction project and will later serve the City’s SW Pryor Rd construction project. The type of concrete (wet batch concrete) to be produced at the facility is generally used for road construction and will operate to serve the applicant’s own specialized construction projects. The proposed facility is not a ready-mix concrete facility that produces material to meet typical commercial concrete contractor needs. The proposed facility is not a commercial sales or distribution operation.
