D. Box 490 <br /> 13065 Orono Parkway <br /> Elk River, NM 55330 <br /> Dear Mr. Rohlf, <br /> We have been in the aggregate (gravel mining) business in <br /> the same location since 1961. In all those years we have <br /> never, to my knowledge, had a complaint from our neighbors <br /> or anyone else for that matter. When we started, 205th <br /> Avenue (county road 33) was gravel. As our truck traffic <br /> increased it became time to pave county road 33. Because we <br /> • needed a nine ton road and Barton Sand and ourselves were <br /> the main users of the road, we furnished the class 5 road <br /> base and Bartons furnished the asphalt. <br /> When we applied for a permit to build the ready mix plant in <br /> 1979 there were alot of nay-sayers who thought it would be <br /> an eye sore. We told them it would look good and we started <br /> a new trend in that type of plant. We planted trees, paved <br /> our road with concrete and put in an underground watering <br /> system. I think it still looks good today. <br /> In 1990 we built our present facility. Again, we wanted it <br /> to look good, to maintain our image. We used decorative <br /> block for the building, concrete pavers in the parking lot, <br /> Keystone landscape blocks, professional landscapings, and <br /> again, underground watering system in a large green area. <br /> I am telling you this because we have been good neighbors <br /> and will continue to be good neighbors, as our track record <br /> shows. <br /> �Sinc- ely, <br /> .hn W.
