Document Description
CUP12-008 proposes to expand the existing B-6 dairy so that the modified dairy would house 2,500 milk cows with a total of 3,680 animals. This would represent an increase of 1,550 milk cows, or 1,911 animals from existing numbers. The proposed project includes the construction of supporting buildings and structures, including a new freestall barn, extension of an existing freestall barn, a dry cow barn, a shade structure, a commodity barn, a new milk barn, and a sprinkler pen. All proposed structures/additions are within the existing facility footprint. Cropped acreage would remain the same at 214 acres, and crops grown on site would continue to be used for dairy feed crops and supplement imported grain and hay.
