CROIX COUNTY,WISCONSIN File: SE0217 Applicant: Russ Utecht Agent: Ron Peterson of B.R.Amon and Sons Location: Section 21, T3 ON,R18W, Town of Richmond Complete Application Received: December 21,2009 Hearing Notice Publication: Weeks of March 8 and 15, 2010 Hearing Date: March 25,2010 FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW Having heard all the testimony, considered the entire record herein, and reviewed the site the Board of Adjustment makes the following Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law for the special exception; 1. The applicant is Russ Utecht,property owner and Ron Peterson, agent. 2. The site is located at 1454 120'h Street in the NE'/4 of the NE 1/4 of section 21,T30N,R18W, Town of Richmond, St. Croix County, Wisconsin. 3. The applicant filed with the Planning and Zoning Department an application for a special exception permit for a temporary hot mix plant in the Ag Residential district pursuant to Section 17.15(6) (n)of the St. Croix County Zoning Ordinance. 4. This request does not violate the spirit or general intent of the St. Croix County Zoning Ordinance in that temporary hot mix plants may be allowed in the Ag Residential District with a special exception permit. 5. By operating within the parameters outlined in the DNR air pollution control permits and with conditions to properly contain all petroleum products associated with the operation this request would not be contrary to the public health and safety or general welfare of the surrounding area. Since the surrounding land uses are primarily non metallic mining and concrete production this request would not be adverse to the property values in the area. 6. With a condition limiting the hours of operation and the fact that this temporary hot mix plant will be in a depression and surrounded by similar uses, this request will not be a nuisance in terms of noise. With a condition to apply the chloride dust control agent and to install a tracking pad this request would not be a dust nuisance. With a condition to direct lighting downward this request would not be a nuisance due to light glare. 7. Staff talked with Joe Brehm from the Wisconsin DNR in reference to the air pollution control general operation and general construction permits that they issued. The proposed hot mix plant equipment emissions are in compliance with the standards outlined in those permits and therefore will not be nuisance in terms of smoke and odor. 8. Section 17.15 (6) (n)that states that temporary hot mix plants are allowed with a special exception permit if they are engaged in a public highway related project and do not exceed 120 days in operation. This request is for approximately 45 days and for State Highway 65 and complies with 17.15 (6) (n). The following vote was taken to approve: Nelson, yes; Hurtgen, yes; Chairperson Malick, yes; Peterson, yes. Motion carried unanimously.
