All election judges will receive two hours of training, and many of the judges have served in several past elections. Staff recommends the Council approve the resolution appointing election judges for the Primary and General Elections for 2018. G.3 Approve Renewal of Mining Permit for Mike Atkinson The Mining Permit for Mike Atkinson on his property located on the south side of 147th Street between Irish and Hyde Avenue expires on August 1, 2018. Atkinson has applied for a renewal the permit for another two years. For the past several years, the site has been used to stockpile material, with no mining activity taking place. When the permit was renewed in 2012, the Council allowed the Atkinsons to move forward with the Mining Permit renewal process without all the conditions being met until the time mining operations began again, due to the cost of meeting those conditions. The requirements not being met are to biannually provide a topographic map of the site, calculation of stockpiled material, amount of granular material left on site to be mined, and a reclamation plan. Staff visited the site on July 11, 2018, and found there have been no changes on the property. Staff recommends Council approve the Mining Permit for Mike Atkinson for property located on 147th Street North with the condition that all requirements in the permit be met when mining activity begins
