The applicant behind a proposed asphalt plant in Tyrone Township has withdrawn his application, citing negative feedback and resistance toward the proposed plant.
The decision was announced in an e-mail this morning from Tyrone Township Supervisor Mike Cunningham and follows last weekâs Planning Commission meeting, which John Sawyer of Capital Asphalt, nor any representatives attended. Cunningham's email stated; "Capital Asphalt has sent a letter to Tyrone Township over the weekend withdrawing their application to construct an asphalt plant within Tyrone Township." Cunningham added that âthey mentioned the negative feedback and resistance toward the proposed plant as the main reason cited for withdrawing. In the letter, Capital Asphalt thanked everyone for their efforts and were very appreciative."
