Meeting convened at 1:04 p.m. Present 4 - Medhin, Richardson, Wilson and Blunt Also present: Jeff Osterman, LRB Ald. Scott Spiker, 13th Ald. Dist. 1. 211435 An ordinance relating to zoning regulations for water treatment plants in industrial zoning districts. Sponsors: Ald. Spiker Ald. Spiker said that the proposed ordinance would address sewage odor issues and the lack of ventilation requirements associated with water treatment facilities, create a new definition of "industrial wastewater treatment facility" in industrial districts, require BOZA review and special use approval for these types of facilities in industrial districts, and require certain criteria such as a mitigation plan and a buffer. Member Richardson said that no special use permit should be granted to a facility unless the proposed use was not located within 500 feet of a residential zoning district and encouraged possible consideration that perhaps the facility be a prohibited use in the industrial-mixed (IM) district. Member Blunt said that DNS reviewed and determined the proposed ordinance to be enforceable and a positive measure to help communities. Member Wilson had legal concerns and wanted to further explore whether the proposed ordinance would conflict with state, DNR, and MMSD laws or provisions that may already be in place regarding the matter.
