The long-vacant former Waterford airport property will remain vacant at least a while longer. Developers who had proposed a concrete plant at the site recently withdrew the application being considered by the Waterford Planning and Zoning Commission.
Some commission members expressed disappointment in the decision by Fabcon Precast. However, residents of a nearby 55-and-over community who had opposed the development no doubt breathed a collective sigh of relief at the news the company was withdrawing its plans.
We tend to agree with the residents of Beechwood Estates that locating a concrete plant so close to this neighborhood of 40 houses would not have been a good fit.
