Calo v. Westland truck parking ruling

Residents who already live next to Calo & Sons' existing truck yard say they endure all-night noise, diesel fumes, dust, light shining into bedrooms, break-ins and prowlers — and the proposal moves 79 truck/trailer stalls hundreds of feet closer. They fear lost property values, $10,600/year tax bills on degraded homes, and unsolved existing problems getting worse. City Council makes the final call.
