Motion by Planning Commission Member Deemer that due to the hour <br />of lateness, after County Commissioner Haas has had a chance to <br />speak, this public hearing be adjourned and continued on July 2, <br />1984 at 7:30 p.m. <br /> <br />Motion fails for a lack of second. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec stated that any additional comments the citizens might <br />think of should be submitted in writing to City Hall. <br /> <br />Leon Fisher - 15113 Nowthen Blvd. - When will the-existing dump <br />be closed if the conditional use permit is turned down. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec - Afraid to say; it was supposed to have been closed <br />in 1978 and things still kept happening. PCA has taken a lot of <br />control away from local officials. <br /> <br />Leon Fisher - I want to use this forum to tell the people of <br />Minneapolis and St. Paul that don't want burning or recycling <br />facility in their area, that we don't want their garbage any <br />more. <br /> <br />Larry Phillips - 6640 153rd Lane NW - Who extended the landfill <br />permits? Do we have a say in what happens in .our City? <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec - PCA and County are the regulatory agencies; City <br />can have input but in the area of landfills we do not have a say <br />in what happens in our City. We are shown the permit application <br />but I personally feel that we have no say in the matter. The <br />County has, lately, taken care of some of our needs and problems <br />but everything in the past has been a bitter battle. The only <br />reason a lot of things were taken care of in the past were <br />because of the City putting pressure on Waste Management. <br /> <br />Larry Phillips - In the June 21st Star and Tribune, it states that <br />Legislature has ordered Hennepin and other metropolitan counties <br />to stop burying garbage in the landfills and to comply with this <br />they started recycling and waste reduction programs. Why don't <br />we start those types of programs in Ramsey? <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec - County Commissioner Haas can address that issue. <br /> <br />Roger Hermanson - 15115 Garnet Street - What type of buffer is <br />going to be against the street of Garnet. I am not impressed <br />with the appraisors statements and I feel my property will be <br />worthless. <br /> <br />Mr. Cook - On the west side of the Northern expansion, we have <br />looked at blending into the existing contours and then pulling <br />it back as we move North so that if the existing distance is 20' <br />to 100' back, we would push it back to about 100' from the <br />property line. We also looked at taking the berm that is proposed <br />to control noises and wrap it around the West side of the site. <br /> <br />Roger Hermanson - Was it Waste Management's intent to extend North <br />when they bought the land from Westphal approximately a year ago. <br /> <br />Council/P & Z <br />Public Hearing <br />Page 18 of 23 <br /> <br /> <br />
