Carson Valley Meats representatives pinpointed the slaughterhouse location in a presentation before the commission. They emphasized the fact that the slaughterhouse will be set back from the freeway, creating a buffer for residents.
The Carson City Board of Supervisors will decide if Carson City is the right place for a slaughterhouse. Resident Maxine Nietz filed an appeal of the Planning Commission’s approval of the slaughterhouse on Friday. During public comment time at the Sept. 29 planning meeting, Nietz cited concerns that have been echoed by many others, including odor, smell, waste, and pollution of the Carson River.
The Carson City Planning Commission on Wednesday night granted Carson Valley Meats a special use permit to construct a slaughterhouse along Highway 50. Though, after hearing public comment, they agreed to alter the conditions of approval.
