Members of the Quarry RV Park opposition group were able to let out a sigh of relief on Thursday after the developers withdrew their appeal. The appeal hearing with the Door County Zoning Board was supposed to take place on February 2nd about the parcel located near George K. Pinney County Park northwest of Sturgeon Bay.  The Door County Resource Planning Committee ruled in February to deny the application submitted by Quarry Bluff LLC because it failed several of the conditional use permit criteria. In July, the developers Mike Parent and Tom Goelz wrote in a letter they are negotiating possible alternative uses for the site which could eliminate a hearing. No Quarry RV Park member Brenda Lange says she is thankful it is done for now.

The Bay Shore Property Owners Association announced in October it had approached the owner of the land, the Margaret Druetzer Trust, regarding possible public use options for the quarry. The organization hired an appraiser in September to support the discussions.
