Two RV manufacturers moved steps closer in plans for manufacturing projects on opposite ends of Middlebury, Ind.
Members of the Elkhart County Commissioners approved rezoning requests for Keystone RV and Jayco during their meeting Monday.
For Keystone, the commissioners signed off on updating a vacant, 22-acre property from agricultural to a heavy industrial zone at 51761 Ind. 13 at C.R. 4 north of Middlebury. Plans for the site weren’t disclosed during the meeting. A message left with a Keystone representative was not returned by Monday evening.
In a separate vote, the commissioners approved Jayco’s request to rezone agricultural land at 58873 Ind. 13 to a limited manufacturing zone on about 3 acres near C.R. 20 south of Middlebury. The property is next door to the company’s campus off Bontrager Drive, and the company plans to create an employee parking lot as part of an expansion, according to a discussion during the Elkhart County Plan Commission meeting last month.
The plan commission had unanimously supported both rezoning requests and recommended the commissioners approve them.
