Heartless invasion of property owners rights
1
We, the community of Spicewood and Double Horn Creek development are offended and victimized by the brazen plan to locate another quarry plant adjacent to our neighborhood, and further, between our neighborhood and the new neighborhood next to us, Spicewood Trails. This Dalrymple Gravel and Contracting quarry and rock crusher in addition to an existing quarry right across Hwy 71. Have the people who run this business become so hardened as to take such a cavalier attitude about our feelings, the dirt, noise, traffic hazard, and seismic shock you allow them to bring to our virtual doorsteps? These plants generate silica dust which is a carcinogen and can be fatal to certain people. Next they use explosives to mine the rock which damages foundations and homes in general. Lastly our housing values, our life savings, and our most important investment will be devalued by 20% to 30%. This will lower county property taxes and have a negative effect on schools and community services in our area.
