What happened

The Highland City Council granted three-year permit extensions to a developer seeking to build two warehouses near Indian Springs High School and Head Start preschool in Highland. This decision came after the council rejected appeals filed by an environmental group against the projects. City officials stated that the extensions were administrative actions and did not require new environmental reviews.
