Zoning Board Hearing
Noblesville City Hall
16th S. 10th St., Noblesville
We, residents of Cherry Tree Meadows of Noblesville, a neighborhood of nearly 300 houses; home to men, women and children, ranging from infants to elder seniors, are being threatened by the five-member panel of the Noblesville Zoning Board.
On Oct. 2, this Board will vote on a zoning variance request from Beaver Gravel to change a tract of residential zoned land to the operate of a GRAVEL PIT just feet from our neighborhood homes; six days a week for a minimum of 10 years.
Cherry Tree Meadows residents have presented to the Zoning Board hundreds of petitions, many factual reports and presentations regarding the adverse hazards of living just a few feet from an operating quarry pit in an area that is already inundated with other nearby quarries BUT NOT ADJACENT TO OUR BACKYARDS.
- It is factual our health and general wellbeing will be at risk, and our quality of life will be greatly diminished by dust, dirt, and the sounds/noise from a gravel pit industrial operation.
- Our property values will be adversely affected up to 30 percent.
We question the Board Members’ moral values in just considering exposing the citizens they have vowed to serve per the Noblesville Comprehensive Plan to such an adverse physical/mental hazardous environment.
Your support is truly appreciated.

As a senior citizen of Cherry Tree Meadows I am so disappointed that this can happen to us. Noblesville designated our land as RESIDENTIAL! How can they go back on that some 20 plus years later!!!
