New York Court of Appeals

In the Matter of Frew Run Gravel Products, Inc., Appellant v. Town of Carroll, Respondents

December 21, 198771 N.Y.2d 126

Summary

The Court affirmed the Appellate Division, holding that the New York State Mined Land Reclamation Law does not preempt the Town of Carroll zoning ordinance that prohibits sand and gravel operations in the AR‑2 district because the ordinance is a general land‑use regulation, not a law relating to the extractive mining industry.
