Background/Discussion The applicant is seeking an amendment to their existing Conditional Use Permit (CUP) which was originally issued in 1997 (CU 97-19). Since then, two amendments have been approved, one in 2001 (CU 01-20) to allow mining south of 221St Avenue and one in 2011 (CU 11-13) to allow mining within the 200 foot setback along the Elk River landfill. The original CUP allowed mining operations and a hot mix plant north of 221", and restricted the hours, among other conditions. The applicant currently wants to expand their mining limits to include an additional 13.65± acre parcel of property located south of the existing permitted properties (PID 75-110-2101).
