Commercial Material Sales

Additional potential new materials sites are being considered for permits and development to support construction throughout the Borough. Please contact the Land and Resource Management Division to learn more.

  • An application to extract gravel from an undeveloped and/or unpermitted site on Borough land can be proposed through a commercial permit application

  • Material sales from existing Borough owned gravel pits are available by application from the LMD. 

    Applicants are advised to consult with the Natural Resource Manager, and discuss operational requirements for individual sites prior to submitting any application.

    The application process may take longer than 30 days to complete due to public notice and board review requirements. The LMD will work to negotiate a contract for the applicant in the least amount of time.  Assembly approval is required for contracts greater than $25,000. This can add additional time before the material may be purchased. Unpermitted sites may require 30-180 days to get permitted for gravel extraction.

  • Upon contract agreement, the contractor will be required to provide:

    • proof of insurance
    • a performance bond
    • a reclamation bond
    • a minimum royalty pre-payment

Material sales from undeveloped or unpermitted sites generally take longer. The reports listed above provide information on where future material sales are possible. Contact the Natural Resource Manager to discuss opportunities to purchase material from new Borough material sites.
