# October 8th Clinton County Planning Commission

The Clinton County Planning Commission meeting identified by the title as October 8, 2026, considered a special land-use application by Highgrade Materials to expand its sand-and-gravel mining operation onto two adjacent parcels in Greenbush Township. The applicant described an approximately 100-acre site, phased excavation, reclamation, and groundwater monitoring. A nearby resident raised concerns about effects on private wells; the applicant described monitoring and oversight requirements. Staff said the application met ordinance standards subject to conditions, including landscaping and buffering. The transcript does not clearly record a final commission action on this application.

The commission also discussed a proposed zoning-text amendment that would allow self-storage facilities as a special land use in A2 districts within the highway overlay area. Public comments and commissioners raised concerns about rural character, agricultural land, traffic, and the amendment’s broad geographic reach; discussion included whether to defer the issue to a future master-plan update. A motion was made to recommend denial to the Board of Commissioners because the amendment was viewed as inconsistent with the intent of the A2 district, but the transcript does not clearly capture the vote. No procurement activity, contract awards, or purchasing decisions were identified.
