WMMI has <br />the following comments on the proposed ordinance identified <br />above. <br />As you know, the Anoka landfill falls within the area <br />affected by the proposed Gateway North Industrial Airport Zoning <br />Ordinance ("Zoning Ordinance"). As you are also aware, WMMI has <br />been pursuing a vertical expansion of the existing landfill site <br />since 1985. Permit applications for the expansion were filed <br />with the Metropolitan Council, the MPCA and Anoka County in <br />August 1985. WMMI has obtained a certificate of need for a <br />vertical expansion of the landfill from the Metropolitan Council <br />based upon an application dated April, 1986. The environmental <br />review process for the expansion is currently well under way with <br />the Metropolitan Council acting as the responsible governmental <br />unit in completing the E.I.S. The existing and continuing use of <br />the current landfill site, including the expansion, is an <br />existing non -conforming use. Accordingly, the language of the <br />proposed ordinance, and in particular Section VII thereof, should <br />be modified to remove any inconsistent limitation on the <br />definition of non -conforming use. <br />EXHIBIT I <br />9-17 <br />
