SR Zoning Board to reach decision on asphalt plant in March

SLIPPERY ROCK TWP — The township’s Zoning Hearing Board on Monday scheduled a vote on whether to grant Heilman Pavement Specialties a special exception for a proposed cold-mix asphalt plant.

The vote will be at 10 a.m. on March 7. The special exception was granted Jan. 13, 2021, but residents filed suit to reverse the decision in July of that year.

On Monday, the board heard from witnesses who oppose the proposed plant at a hearing for the company.

The zoning of the proposed plant property at 490 Stoughton Road was changed from rural conservation to light industry at a hearing Nov. 22, 2021. Attorneys for HEI-Way, which is associated with Heilman, defended their application for a special exception of heavy industry in the light industry zone.
