Statement On Beaver Materials BZA Decision

“The City of Noblesville Board of Zoning Appeals has voted to approve the Beaver Materials’ land use variance application with a 3-2 vote at tonight’s meeting.

City staff’s focus was on reviewing the petition, remonstrance, and associated materials and ensuring that procedural requirements were adhered to and all interested persons had an opportunity to have their voices heard. The approved land use variance includes several conditions that have to be followed during excavation and transporting activities on the site, including a prohibition on blasting or the use of explosives, site watering to limit dust pollution, and timing limitations.

Because the proposal is a land use variance, this item will not go before the city’s plan commission or common council. Final decisions of the board are subject to judicial review in superior court as provided by applicable state law.”
