MUSKEGON, MI – An asphalt plant that seems out of place amid a growing medical corridor on Sherman Boulevard is making plans to move operations closer to Muskegon Lake.
Asphalt Paving Inc. is seeking a zoning change that would allow it to move from 1000 E. Sherman Blvd. to a location off Getty Street near Moses Jones Parkway.
The move would put it closer to other operations of Verplank, its parent company.
A zone change, from I-1 light industrial to I-2 general industrial, and a special use permit for the 20-acre property eyed for the new location was approved last week by the Muskegon Planning Commission. The rezoning will be considered by city commissioners Tuesday, March 9.
