Mr. Sentyrz stated that he has been opposed to any resolution in support <br />of the landfill and that his feelings of opposition are a 1000 times greater <br />now. Mr. Sentyrz stated that it is a normal ply of Metro Council to throw <br />it in at the last minute, that one of Metro Council's avenues of gaining <br />support is slipping it in at the last minute. <br /> <br />Mr. Cox stated that an incineration facility does not have to be an offensive <br />facility, that so many citizens spoke up at the Hazardous Waste Public Hearing <br />before they had studied the matter thoroughly. <br /> <br />Mr. Greenberg inquired as to just how much hazardous waste is generated in the <br />City of Ramsey, that he has many requests from persons to purchase his waste <br />oil and paint thinner <br /> <br />Mr. Sentyrz inquired if there would be a limitation as to how far away from <br />Ramsey could hazardous waste be transported in. <br /> <br />Commission consensus is that out-of-State hazardous waste would have to be <br />accepted in order to make the facility a profitable one. <br /> <br />Mr. Sentyrz stated that the Metro Council is 180o out-of-phase in regards to <br />how they are approaching this matter. He further commented that the companies <br />generating the hazardous waste should create their own on-site facility <br />instead of transporting the waste through residential areas. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec stated that Mr. Sentyrz should be directing his remarks to the <br />Waste Management Board. <br /> <br />Mr. Sentyrz replied that Metro Council is working hand-in-hand with the <br />Waste Management Board. <br /> <br />Mr. Greenberg called for any citizen input. <br /> <br />Susan Beale - Agreed with Mr. Sentyrz' comments. <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Cox and seconded by Commissioner Guy in support of <br />Resolution #83-11a, that in the best interest of the overall community <br />we should certainly not endorse anything of this nature intor our area. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairman Greenberg, Commissioners Miller, Guy, <br />Menkveld, Cox, Muller, Sentyrz and Fults. Voting No: None. Absent: <br />Commissioners Schneider and Schmidt. <br /> <br />Mr. Cox requested that the 'West connection of the sewer outlet be placed on <br />the next EDC agenda for discussion and landowners in that area be invited <br />to the meeting. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec replied that the West connection is down the tubes and will <br />not be going in. <br /> <br />Commissioner Cox replied that there are landowners in that area who are not <br />aware of that fact and do not understand the situation. <br /> <br />Mr. Sentyrz suggested including an explanation of the West end sewer <br />connection in the next Ramsey Resident. <br /> <br />Mr. Cox noted in the Ramsey Resident that a businessman pays $600 for a <br />page of advertising and a Councilmember can consume an entire page in <br /> <br />EDC/March 22, 1983 <br /> Page 2 of 3 <br /> <br /> <br />
