Residents face long odds in crusher battle
The folks in Highland Hills have issues with their new neighbor.
Destructors Inc. has run a concrete crushing plant at Interstate 20 and Interstate 35W for about 10 months, and local residents say that they can’t stand the noise and dust.
The company got what was supposed to be a temporary permit from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality this year. Now, the company is seeking permission to keep the plant there permanently. A decision could come as early as next month after a 30-day period for accepting written comments.
“We definitely do not want it,” said Moses Davis, president of the Highland Hills neighborhood association.
