planning Commission Meeting Minutes <br /> December 18, 2001 <br /> Page 8 <br /> i Chair Melsha stated that they could adopt conditions to provide for the upgrade of the <br /> 2 filters. He added that he was a little uncomfortable with having a panel. <br /> 3 <br /> 4 Chair Melsha asked Smith his opinion on re-visiting a condition in ninety days. Smith <br /> 5' stated that there still needed to be some sort of basis for which.to apply conditions. <br /> 6 <br /> 7 Vice Chair Stille stated that everything needed to be taken within context. <br /> 8 <br /> 9 Commissioner Hanson suggested that they force Essenco to put the new filters in place, <br /> 10 and re-visit the issue in ninety days. <br /> 11 <br /> 12 The Commission talked over a few options for measuring odor: professionals, consulting <br /> 13 firms,and panels. <br /> 14 <br /> 15 Vice Chair Stille suggested that no unreasonable odors omitted from the building could <br /> 16 be found to impact surrounding residential properties as a condition. He added that <br /> 17 would also protect them down the road with the Northwest Quadrant project. <br /> 18 <br /> 19 Solie suggested that they have St. Croix Sensory come back to a City Council meeting to <br /> 20 recommend some sort of plan that they could agree upon. <br /> 21 <br /> 22 Vice Chair Stille stated that they should make the installation of the upgraded filters an <br /> 23 immediate condition. He added that having Essenco add the charcoal filters and then <br /> 24 pulling the permit after a trial period would be somewhat unfair and very costly to <br /> 25 Essenco. <br /> 26 <br /> 27 Commissioner Thomas stated that they were assured by Solie on several occasions that <br /> 28 the carbon filters would solve the problem. Solie stated that he would rather have the <br /> 29 expert come in and assess what needed to be done before installing new filters. <br /> 30 <br /> 31 Shinlof stated that there was not a specific system for this circumstance and that it would <br /> 32 need to be designed,thus,the process would take a bit of time. He added that it would <br /> 33 take between thirty to forty-five days in order to complete the installation. <br /> 34 <br /> 35 Levitus stated that when he spoke to St. Croix Sensory,they stated that there are options <br /> 36 in addition to the charcoal filters. He added that the price of alternative options was <br /> 37 comparable to the charcoal filters. <br /> 38 <br /> 39 . Chair Melsha suggested tabling making a decision on a conditional use permit. He asked <br /> 40 when the clock.would start ticking for Essenco if they were to do that. <br /> 41 <br /> 42 Commissioner Steeves stated that the clock does not start ticking on the sixtieth day, if <br /> 43 the application was found incomplete. <br /> 44 <br /> 45 Commissioner Hanson stated that they could extend the application another sixty days at <br /> 46 next months Planning Commission meeting. <br /> 47 <br />
