14 <br /> are materials that DOT could break down and use <br /> again, the County would want them to do so. She <br /> continued that Commissioner Willhoit indicated he <br /> felt there were materials that DOT could reuse. <br /> Waddell stated that he felt nothing would be <br /> accomplished by such a proposal. Willis stated <br /> that if the borrow pit is on DOT property, <br /> nothing can be done; it is totally exempt from <br /> County regulations. If it is on private property <br /> that is leased, a Special Use Permit would be <br /> required for the excavation and another for the <br /> refilling of the pit. With this proposal, DOT <br /> would not have to go through the condemnation and <br /> purchase process. The County would have a little <br /> more control over what goes back into the pits . <br /> If DOT did not comply, then the amendment could <br /> be removed and DOT would again be required to get <br /> the Special Use Permits. Reid agreed that such <br /> a proposal would not accomplish anything. <br /> Burklin noted that this is a good way to state <br /> the County policy to recycle, but would not like <br /> to have the County expend a lot of time and <br /> expense. He felt it would just make a policy <br /> statement. Willis responded that she felt that <br /> was probably Commissioner Willhoit's intent. <br /> MOTION: Burklin moved approval of the revised language as <br /> presented by the Planning Staff. Seconded by <br /> Brown. <br /> VOTE: 4 in favor. <br /> 3 opposed (Waddell, Jobsis, Reid - felt it would <br /> not accomplish anything) . <br /> AGENDA ITEM #11: MATTERS PROPOSED FOR PUBLIC HEARING (11/30/94) <br /> a.
