152 <br /> APPROVED WITH AMENDMENT 2.7.24 <br /> 1179 Craig Nishimoto: No. That's another industry all together. Randall Williams is the guy who I most look up <br /> 1180 to and admire in this. He would really be the guy to ask about this, but we basically send it to him or operators <br /> 1181 like him. <br /> 1182 <br /> 1183 Beth Bronson: You subcontract that, or just be the liaison in between...? <br /> 1184 <br /> 1185 Craig Nishimoto: We give it away or we sell it to- <br /> 1186 <br /> 1187 Beth Bronson: I was gonna say give it away as well too. I'm very fascinated by the training you could <br /> 1188 offer and the education opportunities that you would have to work in the community. That would further <br /> 1189 enhance, this whole purpose of the development within the Rural Buffer and why something like this <br /> 1190 Conditional Zoning District would be beneficial for the area. As somebody who has grown up around tree <br /> 1191 service, I do know that dealing with the waste is a large problem, and I've seen plenty of houses, not just with <br /> 1192 wood chips, but with logs and logs and logs, and I do know that byproduct can become the worse problem. <br /> 1193 Then actually what to do with it. It's what to do with the decaying of debris. What does the turnover look like at <br /> 1194 your current establishment? <br /> 1195 <br /> 1196 Craig Nishimoto: It's a mess. We try to get rid of it as quickly as possible, and we're next to Brockwell <br /> 1197 Trucking on Calvendar, but they're over capacity, and some winters they'll just say, "No more. We can't take <br /> 1198 any more." And then we take some to a place down by Jordan Lake where they bury the stuff, and then <br /> 1199 sometimes Gorilla Materials. If the guys are working up in Durham, but it's a mess. <br /> 1200 <br /> 1201 Beth Bronson: Thank you. And then I may have missed this. I see four conditions in the packet, and <br /> 1202 then I see the roadway condition of which, I'm glad to hear that you're excited to work with, you're optimistic <br /> 1203 about working with the County to create a better entry point for a place of business, like around a municipal <br /> 1204 field, should the County decide to move forward with that. Ideally, it would be awesome if they had a master <br /> 1205 plan that incorporated your driveway and a new easement. That's obviously very complicated. Getting an <br /> 1206 easement for a cell tower versus a business, well, the easement is the same thing. It's two completely <br /> 1207 different pieces. <br /> 1208 <br /> 1209 Craig Nishimoto: Yeah. There's also power lines running through there too. So, you can't really put power <br /> 1210 lines through your soccer field. Or maybe you can. <br /> 1211 <br /> 1212 Beth Bronson: You definitely can't. I guess as an agricultural enterprise versus, as we were talking <br /> 1213 about, the restrictions on that agricultural, obviously we want your business as it stands applying for the <br /> 1214 application. Right? Versus having grappling trucks or what in 5 to 10 years. Because that may be a different <br /> 1215 thing. It may be a different evolved business by then. Right? You may want two or three buildings to add <br /> 1216 onto or something like that. <br /> 1217 <br /> 1218 Craig Nishimoto: I don't know that we would be able to do that. This is- <br /> 1219 <br /> 1220 Beth Bronson: No, I'm just— It is not up to us to speculate on how your growth is going to go. <br /> 1221 <br /> 1222 Craig Nishimoto: No. No. What I mean is, I think we're locked into this site plan. <br />
