Call to Order – 7:04 by David Johnson

Roll was taken and 3 committee members were present.

A reminder that we will use Robert Rules of Order.

Meeting minutes were tabled until January 2006.

Update of the 2006 Blasting permit – the new permit was submitted to the Village Attorney for review. Orica has already complied with contents of the permit.

In an effort to communicate with residents who have filed complaints to the Village of Hobart concerning blasting or dust; a form letter was designed and reviewed. The letter was found to contain the appropriate information and its use was approved. Mike J. Made the motion, Bill A. the second.

A couple of residents were in attendance at the meeting to make us aware of the muddy water left on the main road in front of the quarry as a result of the water truck trying to clean dust from the road. It has been a nuisance for quite some time and they would like something done to resolve it. After some discussion we decided the problem was caused by the tire grooves that have been ground into the asphalt by the traffic. As a result the water cannot shed from the road, mixes with the dust and leaves muddy water. Traffic that runs through the muddy water splashes everywhere causing dirty vehicles and possibly additional wear and tear. Since this is a County road there isn?t much the Quarry Committee or the Village can do to resolve this other than make the County aware of the issue.

Meeting was adjourned at 8:00 pm. Motion by Bill A., second by Mike J.

Call to Order – 7:05 by David Johnson

Roll call was taken and 4 committee members were present/

A reminder stating that we will use Robert Rules of Order.

A motion was made by Bill Asplund and seconded by Mike Jordan to accept the minutes of the August 2005 meeting. All approved.

The committee reviewed the Blasting Permit and approved the permit as written. The Village already received information from Orica. If the Village Board adopts the permit, it will be filled out and notice sent to the company. Ron H. moved to accept the Blasting Permit as written. Mike Jordan seconded the motion. All approved.

The Quarry committee reviewed the 2006 Quarry permit with attention paid to the hours of operation. Since no neighbors complained about the hours, we as a committee decided this was not a problem to deal with at this time.

A discussion took place about the kind or types of rock that is located on the East and West side of Green Bay.

Our Committee goal for the Quarry is to not have them crush rock in the summer months. However, we are aware that crusher usage is used all year round except for maintenance or breakdowns.

Bill A. moved to accept the 2006 Quarry permit as written. A second was made by Mike J. All approved.

A discussion was then held on the grievance policy. The Village Board said that we should leave it alone. The process on how a complaint was filed was then reviewed. A complaint is called or e-mailed into the Village office. The Quarry committee then reviews the complaint and then compares blast records with State limits. A suggestion was made that a form letter should be sent back to the person who registered the complaint.

The next meeting is scheduled for November 17, 2005.

A motion was made by Bill A. to adjourn the meeting at 8:30. A second was made by Mike J. All approved.
