Walheim Materials Commercial Excavation (Case 2026-4652-CUP)
St. Tammany Parish
Description
A 53-acre commercial dirt pit with 24 acres excavated up to 40 feet deep, backfilled with green materials over roughly ten years. Neighbors' appeal of the Zoning Commission's approval failed when the council voted 13-1 to concur.
Impact summary
Expect up to roughly 12 trucks a day on Ben Williams Road and Highway 21 for about a decade, plus periodic land-clearing burning — the very concerns neighbors raised.
