Judge Cohee Allows Landowners to Join Sidewinder Lawsuit
Judge allows interveners to join Sidewinder Enterprises court case
The Journal | Tuesday, July 15, 2025
In a recent ruling, Judge Bridget Cohee has permitted landowners and the Jefferson County Foundation to join Sidewinder Enterprises' lawsuit against the Jefferson County Planning Commission. This legal action arises from the commission's denial of a plan for a Mountain Pure water packaging facility on the former 3M site in Middleway. The case has garnered local interest as it involves key stakeholders from the community and highlights tensions between development initiatives and local governance.
