Violations & Citations
Nelson updated the Committee on the Bettendorf violation. Bettendorf's attorney stated he will either
apply for a rezonement and special exception or move the trucks back into the parking area. Nelson feels
they will opt for the rezonement.
Nelson informed the committee of the illegal manufacturing plant in Section 3 in the Town of Emerald.

stated the need to rezone the parcel to industrial, obtain a Board of Adjustment special exception and bring
the septic up to code. Hense said the trailer is being used for an office and suggested that this matter be
resolved in a fair and equitable manner within a reasonable time frame.
John & Thomas Ruemmele Rezonement
The Committee discussed Chapter 91.77 (c) regarding undo water and air pollution. There was discussion
about the statement that water quality would be improved as the result of the development. Members of
the Committee challenged this statement and requested to hear staff s opinion. Heise informed the
Committee that some areas in this development are shallow to bedrock and limestone and the potential
exists for high nitrate loss into the groundwater.
Discussion of the one acre lots and density of this development and effect it has on groundwater. Dr. Sam
Hoffinan, Groundwater Specialist, UW Extension Office, stated he does not support this development and
that the golf course would produce more chemical loading of nitrates and phosphates into the ponds and
groundwater. Cook addressed these concerns and presented information from Byron Shaw, Leroy Jansky
and Greg Kerr. Cook stated that the greatest contributor of nitrates is agriculture. Bob Rolle, Troy
Planning Board, feels that what Ruemmele has presented meets that law of the state. Dorsey noted that
this meets the County ordinance. Hense motioned to approve Ruemmele rezonement under 91.77, second
by Menter, a roll call vote was taken: Hense, yes; Menter, yes; Raymond, yes; Luckey, no; Dorsey, yes.

Fa
be ready to set up a public hearing for a moratorium. Heise noted he has been before the City of

from the Finance Committee to see this project through.
The Committee adjourned for lunch at 12:20 p.m. and reconvened at 1:45 p.m.
Riverway Bluffline
Committee discussed the rewording and elimination of certain language in the Riverway Bluffline
Ordinance. Timmerman presented two handouts on detailed definitions of bluff areas. The Committee
discussed 100' setback requirement from a bluffline and the 12% slope rule. The Commitee agreed to
language to continue the longstanding policy of a 100 foot setback from the bluffline. It was decided to
reword 17.36(5)(d) to make drainage away from or toward the river the deciding factor, and to not vary
from this for a pre-existing parcel. The legal description of the district boundaries is to be corrected. The
Committee agreed that illustrations within the bluffline section of the ordinance were very helpful in
explaining and interpreting the intent of the ordinance and decided to add them to the current ordinance.
Timmerman will get final proposed language for amendments together for a November 18, 1996 public
hearing. He will provide language for the 100' setback and all other amendments to be changed.
