Absent: Commissioner Holland. <br /> <br />Commissioner Hendriksen felt the Commission should put in a term requiring that the odor <br />problem be addressed if brought to the permit holder's attention. <br /> <br />Chairperson Bawden noted that the CUP requires compliance with the MPCA standards, and <br />beyond that, odors are difficult to enforce because it is such a subjective issue. <br /> <br />Commissioner Deemer suggested putting in a condition that requires the permit holder to crush at <br />least once a year thereby promoting usage of the recycled product. He felt this would reduce the <br />volume taken in and at the same time encourage disposal of it. <br /> <br />The applicant agreed that this would not pose a problem as they are already crushing at least once a <br />year. <br /> <br />Consensus of the Commission was to direct Staff to add a term requiring a minimum crushing of <br />once a year similar to that placed on the Bury & Carlson CUP. <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Deemer and seconded by Commissioner Terry to recommend that City <br />Council approve the issuance of a conditional use permit to Commercial Asphalt for a hot mix <br />asphalt plant and adopt Resolution g95-02-~ declaring terms of same, as amended. <br /> <br />Planning Commission/February 7, 1995 <br /> Page 7 of 11 <br /> <br /> <br />
