MINUTES OF THE PROCEEDINGS OF THE HUGO PLANNING COMMISSION September 28, 1977 The public hearing to consider the request of Mr. Schuh was called to order by acting Chairperson Theodora Peltier at 7:36 PM PRESENT: Peltier, Peloquing, Gillen, and McAllister ABSENT: Ehret, Greger, and Rosenquist Ehret arrived at 7:55 PM and Larry Irsfeld arrived at 7:45 PM. Mr. Schuh was present stating that he would like to mine more gravel as the need arises. Pelter read that letter received from Mr. Schuh's attorney. Peloquin stated that he had no problem with any of the request. Mr. Schuh would like to get some kind of per- mission to go ahead with projects without coming to City Hall with every request. Marlowe Peuse, neighboring resident, agreed saying that a man cannot operate that way. McAllister stated that we are not going to give Mr. Schuh an open permit for a blacktop plant. Mr. Schuh asked about Fischer's permit. Peloquin thought blacktop plants were part of the permit. If they are included, he could see why Mr. Schuh questioned why he was restricted to one particular project. A resident stated that if the blacktop plant is sitting there, you would think he could use the plant for all jobs. (Ehret arrived at 7:55 PM). Mr. Schuh stated that there was no mention of a blacktop plant in Fischer's permit. Ehret stated that if it is the opinion of the City Council that blacktop plants are part of the Mining Permit, then he does not see where there is a problem. (Schwab arrived at 8:00 PM).
