Following an approval from the state, Frontier Stone quarry has filed an Article 78 challenging the way the town of Shelby has done business. The decision follows a challenge in which the town stopped the company’s aim to construct a stone pit near the Iroquois National Wildlife Refuge, according to a report by The Daily News Online.
The proposed quarry project appeared in jeopardy when the town of Shelby passed Local Law No. 3 of 2017 creating a Wildlife Refuge Protection Overlay District. The district adds extra regulations to the zoning map including stopping “improper development.”
