couple of months there have been a lot of calls coming in <br />at City Hall from residents concerned with air pollution at <br />the landfill; there have been on complaints on blowing papers <br />but people want to know what they are breathing. <br /> <br />! <br />I <br /> <br />Commissioner Hendriksen stated that last week he stopped at <br />the landfill, it was a windy day and he did not see any <br />papers blowing around but he was surprised at the amount of <br />dust blowing around. <br /> <br />7. Glare. <br /> <br />i <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />No Commission comment. <br /> <br />8. Erosion. <br /> <br />Mr. LeFevere stated that erosion at the site can cause <br />leachate generated to run off onto neighboring properties. <br />With the exception of dust generated, it seems like County, <br />Metro Council and PCA would look at specific engineering <br />designs to make sure there were no objectionable materials <br /> <br />Commissioner Deemer pointed out that blowing dust at the <br />site could be a sign of wind erosion. <br /> <br />9. Water Pollution. <br /> <br />Mr. LeFevere stated that he is not qualified to speak on <br />the affects landfills have or might be on ground water. <br />The draft ties into the permit a process of other bodies <br />of PCA, Metro Council and County regulating these more <br />technical matters; there are State regulations that would <br />have to be complied with as part of the permitting process. <br />This is not to say that ground water contamination is not <br />germane to the Commission's inquiry. <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Deemer to table any P&Z action regarding <br />Waste Management's application for a conditional use permit <br />until City Council acts on P&Z's request for additional information <br />regarding property Value and noise levels. <br /> <br />Chairman Peterson seconds the motion for further discussion. <br /> <br />Further Discussion: Chairman Peterson stated that legally <br />P&Z has to take some action; Waste Management has agreed to <br />postponing action. Commissioner Deemer stated that if City <br />Council does not feel additional information is necessary, he <br />is prepared to take action on August 7, 1984 (next regular <br />meeting of P&Z). Commissioner Hendriksen stated he would like <br />to see a straw vote of the Commission regarding whether or not <br />the members are ready to make a decision tonight; if the <br />Commission is ready to act, we can do so and turn the issue <br />over to Council and they can send out for additional information <br />they feel they need. <br /> <br />Motion failed. Voting Yes: Commissioner Deemer. Voting No: <br />Commissioners Kennen, Zimmerman, Hendriksen, Johnson and LaDue. <br />Abstain: Chairman Peterson. <br /> <br />P & Z/July 3, 1984 <br /> <br /> <br />
