Show Notes

Heritage Groups proposed eight-hundred-acre quarry on Homestead Road in Allen County sparks concern. The site, adjacent to sensitive wetlands and near hospitals, schools, and neighborhoods, could face heavy industrial operations, including an asphalt and concrete production center and a train yard. Residents worry about dust, water table depletion, and traffic congestion. The project conflicts with the countys comprehensive plan, which prioritizes open space and agriculture. IU Health and Southwest Allen County Schools are monitoring the situation, while county commissioners await the full land use review process.
