Council to vote on The Shire moratorium

 On tonight's agenda it's in the consent agenda as part of the Plan Commission actions.

Proposed extension of Ordinance 2223-10, an extension of Ordinance Nos. 2182-09, 2144-08, 2090-07 and 2070-06 which are an extensions of Ordinance No. 1958-04, a Development Common Council Moratorium for the Waste Management landfill known as Outlots 1 and 2 of CSM No. 9898 and outlots 6, 7, 8, 9, 11 and 12 of The Shire subdivision (initially identified as Outlots 6-10) bounding same, not including lots 1-25 of The Shire Subdivision.  

There's a thirty-four page document with all the ordinance background and extentions the Moratorium Committee will use tomorrow. If I can find a way to get it to the website, I'll do so.

In the meantime, know this will pass tonight, just like all the moratoriums have passed since 2004. It's tomorrow night's meeting that starts to change things.

Here are part of the minutes on the matter from the August 8th Plan Commission meeting.

Mr. Ertl added that a provision was added that if the Moratorium Committee is able to complete their 

report before September 1, 2012, and the Plan Commission and Common Council are comfortable with the report, the moratorium could end earlier. 

 Alderman Owen said he appreciated the inclusion of that provision. 

 Alderman Nelson moved to approve the staff recommendation.  The motion was seconded by Alderman Mahkorn. 

Mayor Ponto asked if there was any further discussion.  There was none. 

 The motion as made then passed unanimously. 

Did you catch that? Alderman Owen "said he appreciated" the idea the moratorium could end earlier.
