Hearing set in mill expansion

SANDPOINT ­— The Bonner County Commission is revisiting a conditional use permit to expand sawmill and woodworking operations at facility in the Selle Valley on Wednesday, Dec. 9.

The hearing is set for 2:15 p.m. in the first-floor conference room in the Bonner County Administration.

Ernie and Nancy Brandt obtained approval in August to expand their operations to add seven new buildings to accommodate expanded operations, in addition to office, shipping and storage space. The proposal, however, ran into opposition from neighboring landowners who are already weary of the smoke, dust, light and noise emanating from the site.
