My summary comments regarding the experiences of each respective city are as follows: City of North St. Paul In my conversation with Mr. Bob Gatti, City Manager of North St. Paul, he indicated to me that T. A. Schifsky & Sons have a recycling operation in conjunction with their hot mix plant. He noted their hot mix plant operation had existed before other development in the city occurred in this area. The city has not regulated the recycling operation. It developed incidental to the hot mix plant operation. He noted that they have not had any complaints regarding this operation. Mr. Gatti did say that the only problem he was aware of was dust during high winds. It was also noted that this area is zoned industrial I -2. This is a heavy industry zoning area. The Schifsky operation is a minimum of four blocks away from any residential property use. Mr. Gatti stated that the property is surrounded by other industrial uses. City of St. Paul The City of St. Paul has multiple recycling operations. In my discussion with Wendy Lange of the zoning department, she indicated that the property in question is zoned I -2 or heavy industrial. This type of recycling operation is a permitted use in this zoning district. The only condition required is a minimum of a six foot high fence to screen the property with the screening to be achieved at street level. It should be noted Page 1
