Press Release: Citizen Group Don't Leave It to Beaver issues statement on withdrawal of zoning request
For Immediate Release: December 7, 2020
Inquiries: stopbeaver@gmail.com
NOBLESVILLE – We are relieved that Beaver Materials has withdrawn its zoning request with the City of Noblesville. However, as we await an updated proposal in early 2021, Don’t Leave It to Beaver will continue to watch the public record for updated documents related to the gravel pit.
We are prepared to continue the fight as long as it takes to protect our community from this gravel pit.
Don’t Leave It to Beaver is thankful for the Noblesville citizens who lent their voice the chorus of opposition. We are thankful for every citizen who wrote or spoke to their elected officials. We’re thankful for the thousands of people who signed the paper and online petitions.
We’re thankful for the people who protested on street corners and for those who attended our prayer vigil in person or in spirit. Thank you to all who put up a yard sign, and to all who educated their friends, neighbors, and family on the risks this project posed to our community.
We’re not giving up. As we work together to evaluate next steps, concerned Noblesville citizens are encouraged to stay motivated in the following ways:
