Planning commission approves rezone to Mining & Extraction for cement-plant parcels
The Planning Commission approved a rezone application to designate property internal to a cement plant as Mining and Extraction (ME) District. Staff noted that deed language and state law (as cited in the record) justified applying the ME District for parcels that are internal to the plant while leaving an off-site Hidden Valley Road parcel under its existing future-land-use designation.

Staff recommended the specific legal descriptions and parcels to be rezoned and the commission approved the recommendation on a motion and second. Staff cited the transcript’s reference to SD CL 11430 when discussing legal descriptions for the affected parcels; the commission’s approval followed staff’s recommendation.
