The Spirit of Jefferson | Thursday, May 15, 2025
Residents of Middleway, in collaboration with the Jefferson County Foundation, have filed an intervention to oppose the Mountain Pure beverage packaging facility proposed by Sidewinder Enterprises, LLC. This legal action supports the Jefferson County Planning Commission, which previously rejected the project due to its significant groundwater consumption and incompatibility with local zoning regulations. The controversy centers on the proposed construction at the old 3M factory site near the historic village, raising concerns among local residents about the potential impact on the community's resources.
