Quarry Proposal Sparks Community Pushback

from Fort Wayne News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A massive 524-acre quarry proposed by US Aggregates in southwest Allen County could bring $145 million, 100+ jobs, and $1 million in annual tax revenue—but residents are rallying against it, fearing permanent neighborhood changes and health risks from dust and noise. The company insists it’s compliant with regulations and prioritizes safety. With a packed public hearing scheduled for Tuesday night at the War Memorial Coliseum, the fate of the project hangs in the balance as local officials and community voices clash over economic growth versus quality of life.
