Grant County approves Fisher Sand & Gravel conditional use permit; multiple utility boring permits cleared

Grant County Commissioners approved a Special Conditional Use Permit for Fisher Sand & Gravel for 2024 at their April 17 meeting, contingent on the company applying for and receiving a Road Use Agreement with the county.

Jackie Steinmetz, Planning and Zoning Board Administrator, presented several permits. The board voted to approve five boring permits (UTL29/30-13186-53SW-A; UTL19/28-13086-52SW-B; UTL31-13286-54SW-C; UTL6/7-13186-85SW-D; UTL7-13186-54SW-E) after motions by Commissioners Hochhalter and Meyer with unanimous roll call votes. The Fisher Sand & Gravel conditional permit was approved on the same unanimous vote but recorded as contingent on a Road Use Agreement.

Separately, the board accepted vendor quotes for equipment and facility repairs: Jake's Auto Glass, Mandan, was selected to replace windshields for county vehicles and Accurate Door, Bismarck, was awarded replacement and installation of walk-in doors at the Elgin Shop; both motions passed unanimously.

The minutes record these decisions as administrative approvals necessary for operations and planned work in 2024. The Road Use Agreement requirement remains a condition for Fisher Sand & Gravel's activity on county roads.
