STOP the PIT-- New Smyrna Beach Mine: www.stopthepit.org

This petition is to oppose an application for a special zoning exception to excavate and mine A2 (Agricultural) and FR (Forestry Resource) land for corporate interest located at 1339 SR415, New Smyrna Beach FL 32168. Parcel #7234-00-00-0030 and #7235-01-02-0050. This request will change the use and intent of the land from Agriculture & Forestry to a provision that is compatible solely for the intent of intensifying corporate expansion and will further increase traffic by adding upwards of one hundred (120) 70,000 lbs dump trucks a day on Highway SR/CR415 & SR44 for a minimum five (5) year period.

We, the undersigned, are concerned citizens who urge the Volusia County Planning and Land Development Regulation Commission as well as the county council to deny this application for a special exception - Case # S-15-008.
