It seems that this is par for the course for PW research. Misinformation and quotes given by other people and just taken as gospel without being verified are more suited for the tabloids.

Can anyone give us a explaination where is the new asphalt plant
location ?
We live in new vineyard hills community, we suffer the noise everyday, the new location seems even closer to the community.

Public Information Officer is a vital position ????
Sounds phony.
Don't we have a council who can handle disseminating information?
They are by the nature of the job, expert communicators!!
I would much rather another policeman, teacher, school or city improvement.

Sylvia, the plant will either be located off of Stanley, across from the existing asphalt plant at Vulcan, or it will be moved completely offsite. I was the one who initiated all the processes to do something about this asphalt plant that appeared without any public notice or even a hearing in the county. They handled it over the counter. This forced me to research the whole project and I found all the documentation going back to the 1950's which allowed a plant at its existing location (which was off of Stanley). Clearly it was wrong to have the plant where it is now and I have been working with the City and County to take care of this problem that start 5 or 6 years ago. In addition to this, the plant was placed within a few hundred feet of the Neal Elementary School Site was already approved by the State. There are state laws about locating a plant this close to a school site without noticing the school district (which was not noticed) and the community, and then making some findings.
