asked for an informal resume which wa then given. Members of the audience
were given a chance to voice opinions.
Mr. Rob. McCampbell asked whether the planning board had done any
feasability study or study as to the need of a landfill in our tillage.
Chairman answered that there hadn't been any. Mr. McCampbell then proceded
to point out the steps which he felt should be followed. First, to conduct
a study to determine if there was a need for Lino to have a dump or landfill.
Second: to check with the other communities regarding their experience and
availability. Third: to locate such a landfill in a present commercial
area which would benefit from it. Fourth: to check with the landowners
and Fifth: make adecision.
Board Member Kelling mentioned his landfill operation some years ago.
He said we could benefit by study of its operation which he felt came on the
scene too early but that now such an operation would be profitable.
Boardember Jester mentioned that at least the older members of the
Planning Board were familiar with landfill operations and know, what they involve.
Chairman Rehbein questioned the attorney as to if once the land
was rezoned to commercial could it be changed back to residential at a later
date. The attorney said it could be done but only if the owner of the property
at that time requested it.

Boai2d Member Heckenlaibe said he felt that the will of the people of
this area should be followed and that we should not allow the landfill.
r. Frank McCoy brought up the problem of 5 ton load limits on roads
leading to this peoperty; also the problem of rough roads and additional
road maintenance necessary if at least 100 trucks per day travel to it. He
felt that in effect the public would be subsidizing a private enterprise,
because of extra road construction and maintenance; Also the danger factor to
children etc. with all the truck traffic .`WC- iAov"4-i wra
