Proposed Quarry in Lower Milford

Geryville Materials has proposed to built a 628+ acre quarry which will operate for over 50 years. The quarry is situated at the intersection of West Mill Hill Rd and Kings Highway. Geryville Materials wants to modify the existing zoning ordinances declaring that they are overly restrictive. They also want to built an asphalt mixing plant and cement plant.

Lower Milford Residents Association is fighting the quarry because it harms the Township financially, environmentally, and poses unprecedented dangers to residents and their families.

Zoning Board Hearings on Quarry Delayed

The Zoning Board Hearings regarding the application to build a quarry at West Mill Hil has been postponed until there is a resolution of the appeal of the Commonwealth Court of the Planning Commision decision. The Township has appealed the decision and LMRA has joined in the appeal. Since the decision has a important influence on how both parties will proceed, it was agreed to wait to see what the outcome will be before proceeding.

West Mill Hill Deserves to Survive

West Mill Hill is a wonderful region not only for Lower Milford Township but for the whole state. It is surrounded with history that dates back to the settlers who came in 1725 to build a Township strong in farming, industry, and beauty. It has farms that have been passed on for generations, it has responsible development where people have grown their families and lives. It has species of endangered plants and the box turtle that survives only because of the pristine environment in the Township.

All said it deserves to be preserved for future generations rather than be destroyed for the profit of few.
