Glenwood Springs–The Garfield County Board of Commissioners denied a Land Use Change Permit for the Bedrock Asphalt Batch Plant this afternoon. The vote was 2 to 1 to deny the permit with Mike Samson casting the no vote. The decision drew applause from the packed house that included the primary opponent Eagle Springs Organic Farms. The farm owners objected to the asphalt plant saying the added pollution and dust would hurt their operation and cause them to lose their official “organic” status.
