KIKI SONN EN I Councilmember MOLLY O�ROURKE L�'°'at'°°''iae - May 19 , 19 8 MEMO TO: City Councilmembers I FROM: Councilmember Kiki Sonnen SUBJECT: Petition of Midway Businesses about Bo ander Concrete Crusher on Capp Road off of Vandalia On Tuesday, May 20, John Daubney, representing s veral Midway businesses, will appear before the City Council o express concerns about Carl Bolander and Sons concrete c shing operation. Here is background on the issue and proposal to resolve the problems. BACKGROUND: In November 1985 Carl Bolander & Son moved their concrete crushing operation off Port Authority-ow ed land onto land at Capp Road and Vandalia. This land is lea ed to Bolander by the owner, Dan Oren, of Dart Transit. The con rete crushing began operating in March 1986. I Since that time, local businesses have complainedllabout airborne dust particles, noise of operation, rocks falling off trucks, etc. The concerned businesses include Central Distribu ion Company, Capp Industries, New York Tea Company, Gourmet Fo ds, Inc. , White Castle, as well as the area' s business asso iation, Midway Civic and Commerce. The affected area is zoned I-2, which allows conc ete crushers as a permitted use. Sections 226. 01 , 226. 04, 60. 22 (2) , 60 . 623 (2) , and Appendix B to the Zoning Code of t e St. Paul Legislative Code relate to this issue. I 've been working with the affected businesses as well as staff from the Port Authority, Minnesota Pollution Cont ol Agency, city Public Works and Housing and Building Code Depart ents. CITY HALL SEVENTH FLOOR SAINT PAUL,MINNESOTA 55 OZ 612/298-5378 B�r46 I _ . .. . � (;�_ �-�:.� . . City Councilmembers -2- May 19, 1986 - PROPOSED RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM: I have prop sed to the busi- nesses that the concrete crusher operation conti e to do business under the following conditions: 1) A six-foot high obscuring fence be constructe alongside the operation at Capp Road (according to Section 0. 623 (2) of the Legislative Code) . 2) The partially demolished building on the proplrty is in dangerous condition. It must be completely emolished or fenced off to prevent access to the site imme iately (according to Zoning Inspector John Hardwick' April 3, 1986 letter to Carl Bolander) . � 3) The crushing machine must be enclosed or secu ed to the satisfaction of the Saint Paul Public Work' s epartment (according to Section 226. 01 and 226 . 04 of th Legislative Code) . 4) Bolander shall make arrangements to water, cl an and sweep Capp Road and Vandalia every day for 1/2 mile from the operation. In addition, private access roads to the crushing machine and outdoor storage piles must also b watered and cleaned every day. 5) Bolander must secure the outdoor storage pile against air- borne particulates with either a "liquid tarp formula" or plastic tarps secured to the tops of the pile . In addition, the sides and base of the piles must be water d or treated daily to prevent airborne particulates. I believe these five conditions will allow for th continued use of the site for the concrete crushing business, a well as alleviate the concerns of the area' s warehousing industry.
