Neils Lunceford, a landscaping business based in Silverthorne, is hoping to use more of its recently acquired property by filling in wetlands in the area.
Neils Lunceford moved off its old operational location in October 2019 onto a property at 981 Adams Ave. behind the Groove Jeep Chrysler Dodge Ram dealership. However, CEO and President Jeffrey Lunceford said the business currently can use only about 3 acres of the 10-acre property because there are wetlands on the site. The company’s previous property provided about 12 acres of space. As a result, the company has applied for a permit to use more of the new property by leveling and filling in about an acre of wetland space.
