Mr. Wynne checked with the State Ethic Commission to see if there was a conflict of interest if Councilmember Stankoski voted on the Fly Creek proposed ordinance. The State Ethic Commission advised that this would be a conflict of interest for Councilmember Stankoski to vote on this issue because of the economic impact that this could have on his own property. Councilmember Stankoski will abstain from voting and discussion on this issue.

Councilmember Ford suggested that nothing be done at this time until the drainage survey recommendations are received. Council President Gentle questioned Mr. Corte if he agreed to abide by the Neel- Schnaffer, Inc. recommendations. Mr. Corte stated that he could not agree to something that he does not know. Mr. Corte further stated that he does agree to the 30 ft setback now, but the Neel-Schnaffer, Inc., study could ask for 100 to 200 ft., and Mr. Corte stated that he could not agree to that. It was clarified that when talking about setbacks it means the setbacks are from the delineated wetland or the edge of the wetland not from the waters edge. After further discussion, Councilmember Quinn amended her motion to allow 30 ft buffer along the delineated wetlands and a 30 ft setback. This motion died for a lack of a second. Councilmember Ford request that Mr. Corte give a commitment that he would consider changing the 30 ft setback to a 15 ft buffer and a 15 ft setback. Councilmember President Gentle inquired if there were any covenants restricting on what can/cannot be built within the 30 ft setback. Mr. Mims stated that a pool and patio BBQ could be built within the 30 ft setback, but a garage or storage cannot be constructed with the setback. 3975 23 October 2006 Councilmember Christenberry moved for final adoption of Ordinance No. 1317 an ordinance amending the Zoning Ordinance No. 1253 to zone the property of Fred Corte, as a Planned Unit Development, concurrent with annexation, containing 160 +/- acres, and rezone the property of Angelo A.

Gregg Mims addressed the City Council to explain the proposed ordinance. The City Council received favorable recommendation from the Planning & Zoning Commission STAFF INTERPRETATION: RLF Baldwin Properties, LLC is requesting an initial zoning for property generally located on the west side of State Highway 181 just south County Road 44. The applicant requests that the property be zoned M-2 General Industrial District, conditional upon annexation into the City of Fairhope. The property is currently utilized as a clay and sand pit. The applicant desires to re -permit the existing sand and clay mining operation, which is being currently reclaimed to accept vegetative debris and concrete debris and to operate as a recycling and disposal center for inert unregulated materials. This operation conforms to the purpose and intent of the M-2 General Industrial District. 3977 23 October 2006 The issues associated with this request are as follows: Comprehensive Plan: This request is not contrary to the plan. Property Size: The property to be annexed is 53.54 acres.

All operations shall comply with all standards set forth in the ADEM regulations for a C& D landfill. Respectfully Submitted for Consideration, Nancy Milford Planner Jennifer Fidler Public Workers Director explained that AMED would inspect the landfill quarterly. In order for the proposed landfill to receive a permit the City of Fairhope would have to sponsor the landfill. The City and the citizens of Fairhope would dump into the landfill free of charge Council President Gentle opened the Public Hearing at 7:21 p.m. Rance Reel, a resident of 131 Augusta Court and developer of Stone Creek located directly across from the proposed landfill, addressed the City Council to speak in opposition of the proposed C & D landfill. Mr. Reel expressed that this landfill will have a negative impact on the Stone Creek development and the watershed. 2. Manning McPhillips, a resident of 204 Springhill Avenue, Mobile, Alabama and former landowner for the Stone Creek development, addressed the City Council in opposition of the C & D landfill development. Mr. McPhillips stated that using this property as a C & D landfill would impact the ground water and this could flow into Cow Pen Creek. 3. Frank Leatherbury, a resident of 12737 Clay City Road, inquired of the City's regulations for landfills and opposed this site as being used as a C & D landfill. 4. Brook DeLaney, a resident of 8876 Lakeview Drive within Fairfield Field Place Subdivision and owner of the proposed site for the C & D landfill, addressed the City Council to explain that turning this site into a C & D Landfill is just an idea. 3978 23 October 2006 Mr. DeLaney stated that he did not have an interest to pursue this project. He only presented it as an idea after learning that the City was running out of space within its current C & D landfill. The City would have to host the proposed landfill in order to receive a permit from the state. The site is currently being used as a construction and demolition debris landfill that would accept non - regulated solid waste. Councilmember Stankoski inquired if this would put the city on the hook for any violation? The City would have no responsibility to the degree that if anyone else dumped illegal items into the landfill. Mr. DeLaney explained that annexing into the City of Fairhope would make the project more profitable. Mr. Wynne raised concern that the current proposal from RLF could place the City at risk of contract zoning, which by definition means a practice that permits a property owners to enter into a written agreement with local government to rezone with restriction set by the city for those parcels. These conditions may not apply to other similarly zoned parcels. 5. Chason Wachter, a resident of 118 General Canby Drive, addressed the City Council opposed the proposed C&D landfill. 6. Betty Haynes, a resident of 551 Jan Drive, addressed the City Council and expressed that she wish that the City would not consider this request at all. The Councilmembers inquired of Mr. DeLaney if the County could sponsor this project. Mr. DeLaney stated yes, but he has not asked the County. Mr. Mims stated that having this property inside the City limits the City would have more control as to what is placed on the site. Council President Gentle closed the public hearing at 8:05 p.m. This item will layover for final action at the next regular City Council meeting. Council President Gentle stated that he would allow additional comments on this topic, at the next regular City Council meeting. Council President Gentle stated that the City needs a list of what a C & D landfill can accept and who regulates the landfill. Council President Gentle also inquired who is RLF. Mr. DeLaney stated that RLF is 60% private entity (Resource Land Fund) and 40% family members, which is about 20 individuals, comprising of members of the Cunningham family, DeLaney family and Clarence Burke. Council President Gentle also suggested that the City Council visit the site. 3979 23 October 2006 Councilmember Quinn introduced in writing Ordinance No. 1319.

It was the feeling of the Harbor Board that the original proposal was inadequate. The original proposal was to repair a 50-ft. section of bulkhead using the existing bulkhead materials, which included 20-foot pilings and 16-ft. boards. The portion of the bulkhead to be repaired was 12-14 ft. deep at the bulkhead and 15-17 ft. off of the bulkhead. The board recommended replacing 30-feet of bulkhead using 16-ft. boards and 20-ft. pilings, which was there before the storm. The original proposal submitted was at a cost of $17,000.00. The new proposal is to do 135-ft. of bulkhead, which will be done using 4-in. x 8-in. stringers and 2-in. x 8-in. x 20-ft. boards. The pilings will be 30-ft x 12-14 in. diameter and includes tie back rods, filter cloth, and backfill. That total cost of the new proposal will be $32,400.00. We also propose to place riprap in front of the bulkhead at a cost of $3,000.00 to $5,000.00 to add to the protection of the bulkhead and to keep this from possibly occurring again. 1 will be happy to address any further questions you may have about this project. Thank you for this opportunity of serving the Harbor Board and the City of Fairhope.
