A Council member asked what type of landscape b would be reauir~ on the Grggt~e <br />tact if used a Solid W Management Facility`? And what would a 100' ys a 500' vs a <br />1.000 `buffer look like. -' <br />Sta,,~" Comment: We attach a map of the Greene Tract that shows how much land would be <br />available for use if a 100 foot or a Z00 foot perimeter buffer were required. A 500 foot perimeter <br />buffer would prole'bit development of the 60 acre portion of the Crreene Tract. The text <br />amendment proposes a 100 foot buffer requirement. <br />3. A Council membez asked how truck routes to a solid waste manaaemonr facility would be <br />decided. <br />Staf~Comment: The routing of trucks to a future solid waste management. facility would not be <br />an operational decision. We believe that trucks would come from all types of routes to a facility <br />of this nature. <br />RECOMMENDATIONS <br />Planning Board Recommendation: The Planning Board met on October 5, 1999 and voted 8-0 to <br />recommend the amendment with adoption of Ordinance B. Please refer to ~ the attached <br />Summary of Planning Board Action. - <br />We note that Ordinance B includes language defining a Solid Waste Management Facility that <br />was provided to the Planning Board on October 5 by the Solid Waste staff it was brought to our <br />attention that the language of Ordinance B is not identical with language in the Interlocal <br />Agreemen. The Manager's recommendation, Ordinance A, betty reflects the language of the <br />Interlocal Agreement. <br />Upon further study, we have also concluded that the range of possible uses in this proposed new. <br />district should' include a broader rangy than simply "Solid Waste Management Facility." <br />Accordingly, Ordinance A provides the broader range of uses ~ and is the Manager's <br />recommendation. <br />14lanager's Recommendation: We recommend adoption of the attached Ordinance A as an <br />amendment to the Development Ordinance <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />1.
