attached to this memo and will be incorporated in the proposed ordinance for adoption by the City Council. This ordinance will be available at the council meeting. The Landfill submitted the attached letter to the Planning Commission stating that they do not object to the staff recommendation. At the Planning Commission hearing, the Landfill pointed out that a closed portion of the landfill in the northeast corner is presently not covered by the CUP and therefore had SWF zoning but not a CUP. Staff does not consider this a big concern and does not anticipate coming forward with an amendment to the CUP to cover this area. If the Landfill comes forward to amend the CUP to address this issue, staff would likely recommend that the CUP be amended to incorporate the new description. In addition, staff anticipates processing a comprehensive plan amendment to amend the land use map element of the comprehensive plan to ensure that the area zoned SWF, as described in the new description, is the area identified on the land use map for Landfill land use. Financial Impact None Attachments • Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map • Area to be zoned • Notice of Public Hearing with new description • Letter from Landfill addressed to Planning Commission Analysis Adoption of an Ordinance zoning the entire Landfill property into the SWF and Mineral Excavation Overlay Districts will eliminate the possibility of any gaps in the zoning districts; will eliminate the potential for illegal deposits of solid waste outside of the SWF Overlay District, and will ensure that the zoning of the Landfill property is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan designation of the property as "Landfill". For these reasons, staff and the Planning Commission recommend to the City Council that an Ordinance be adopted zoning the property described on the attached legal description Solid Waste Facility and Mineral Excavation C-verlay District. A proposed ordinance for adoption by the City Council will be available at the council meeting. The alternative is to adopt the Landfill's position regarding the location of the SWF Overlay District and to commence a zoning enforcement action against the Landfill for deposition of solid waste outside of the SWF Overlay District. Recommendation Staff & Planning Commission recommend zoning the property as presented. Action Motion by Second by Vote Follow Up S:\Public Bodies\Council\Lori\2010\ZC to CC 419.doc
