Monson ag hauling facility dispute (PSP 26023)
Summary
A family ag hauling operation wants to store up to 25-30 trucks and 30 trailers on four acres near Monson, running 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. with about 20 round trips a day. The neighboring Elkhorn Dairy says the site currently looks like a commercial truck repair chop shop, and its attorney argues the project can't legally be approved without environmental review. The commission put off the decision until January 13, 2027.

Impact analysis
No direct county cost, but conditions require all-weather surfacing, dust control and ongoing county compliance inspections.
The Nagra family gets a legal basis for its ag hauling fleet, and growers get hauling services.
Neighboring property owners, particularly Elkhorn Dairy, say they face noise, dust, traffic and truck repair nuisance impacts.
