Case File: CU 11-13 Page 2 Tiller Corp. Mining of the Landfill property is conducted in connection with Elk River Landfill, Inc. (ERL) landfilling activities. As ERL needs to expand into a new cell, Tiller mines the cell removing the gravel so that liners can be installed and the cell filled with solid waste. Elk River Landfill, Inc. and Tiller Corporation filed separate applications to amend their existing CUP's to allow expansion of mining and landfilling activities within the 200-foot buffer zone on the southern boundary of the Landfill property. Tiller's request is to amend Condition No. 3(20) of its 1996 CUP to allow removal of trees and mining within the buffer area that is within 200 feet of the Landfill's south property line. The material from the buffer zone will be used to construct the berm along the west side of Tiller's entrance along 2215`. Please see the attached map. The berm will be vegetated this fall. The Landfill has applied fox an amendment to their CUP to expand the landfill into the buffer area and south into Tiller's property. Their application is currently scheduled to be reviewed at the September 13, 2011 Planning Commission meeting. If the Landfill CUP application is approved, Tiller will continue to mine the remaining buffer zone to allow for the expansion of the landfill. Within six months of an approval for the Landfill expansion, Tiller will amend their existing CUP for their gravel operation and hot mix asphalt plant to include a revised phasing plan, bermuig and screen plan for the West side of the property along 2215` Ave and reclamation plan. Planning Commission No comments were received at the public hearing. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the request with a 6-0 vote.
