Tidewater Green Corp. will operate the facility, which will grind the shingles into material that can be added to asphalt mixes or used for bike paths or jogging trails.
The City Council approved the facility by a 7-1 vote, even though the company was found in violation for storing shingles in outside bins on the site. According to the report, Andy Warren, president of Tidewater Green, told the council that storing the shingles outside was a mistake and that he was under the impression from the Department of Environmental Quality that it was permissible. He said he will work with the city to correct the violation.
