Crescent Ridge To rezone property from CS Commercial Services and Wholesale, C-3 General Commercial and AG Agricultural District to PI Planned Industrial District. Dear Mayor and City Council Members: The City of Dubuque Zoning Advisory Commission has reviewed the above-cited request. The application, staff report and related materials are attached for your review. Discussion Dawn O'Meara, representing Alter Scrap Processing, spoke in favor of the request, reviewing proposed screening for the salvage yard. She reviewed visibility of the salvage yard from surrounding property. Rod Tschiggfrie, representing Tschiggfrie Excavating Company, also spoke in favor of the request, noting that this was an appropriate use, and he had never received noise complaints for prior uses of this property. Staff reviewed photos taken from the proposed center of the salvage yard that illustrated visibility of the site from surrounding property. There were several public comments related to the visual impact and noise created by the proposed salvage yard. Speakers also provided photos that attempted to demonstrate the lack of screening provided by the proposed 10-foot high fence proposed by Alter Scrap. Speakers also provided information on past violations by Alter Scrap at their existing site at 180 Harrison Street. The Zoning Advisory Commission discussed the request, noting concerns for impact of proposed salvage yard on a future Catfish Creek bike trail and impact of the business from a noise and visual standpoint. The Commission did not feel the request met the standards contained in Section 6-1.1 of the Ordinance. Service People Integrity Responsibility Innovation Teamwork 190 N. Crescent Ridge December 12, 2005 Page 2 Recommendation By a vote of 5 to 2, the Zoning Advisory Commission recommends that the City Council deny the request. A simple majority vote is needed for the City Council to deny the request. A super majority vote is needed for the City Council to approve the request.

The lots are currently zoned CS, C-3 and AG. Alter is proposing that the lots be reclassified as Planned Unit Development with a primary industrial use (PI). The reclassification is necessary to allow Alter to operate a recycling facility on the property. As is detailed on the enclosed Conceptual Development Plan, the proposed planned district will use the existing building on Lot 13 as an office and warehouse (and employees will park north of the building.) A truck scale will be located just east of the office/warehouse on Lot 12. Lots 1-6 and Lots 8-11 will be used to store metal. Lot 7 and Lot B will be preserved as open space. The proposed district has been designed to preserve natural site amenities to the fullest extent possible and to minimize disturbance to the natural environment. The proposed planned district will comply with all laws and regulations regarding the operation of salvage yards, including the design and construction of a screening plan as required by Code section 29- 6A. The proposed district will utilize existing streets and will not significantly increase traffic on City streets. The proposed district will use existing utilities, water and sewer and is designed so as to be functionally integrated with these resources. ~-=~c_,'==-=.,,~,c. LANE & WATERMAN LLP Zoning Advisory Commission October 6, 2005 Page 2 The density and design of the proposed planned district is compatible (in use, size, type of structure, amount of open space, and traffic circulation) with the adjoining land uses. The properties adjacent to the proposed district are zoned commercial or are exempt from zoning. The properties to the west are used to operate such uses as an animal shelter, a motor parts store, and motorcycle shop. The properties to the south are used to operate a mini-storage facility and a retail commercial outlet. The proposed district will not interfere with the appropriate use and enjoyment of the abutting properties. We trust that the foregoing will be of assistance to you in your consideration of the proposed planned district. The proposed district would be an excellent addition to City of Dubuque.

We are providing this information to assure the City of Dubuque that Alter is environmentally responsible and has a strong environmental program in place. We hope this information will address your concerns. If you have any questions regarding our program, please do not hesitate to contact Michael Place, President of CPI Environmental Services, Inc., at 630-407-0800; Rex Wood, Vice President of Human Resources and Risk Management, or myself, at 314-872-2400 Sincerely, i"!:,, /'/ // .,/ /. /;- t:'./....

("cpr") has assisted Alter Trading Corporation ("Alter") for the past eleven years with the development of a corporate-wide Environmental Management Program. Based on CPI's experience across the nation at approximately 200 scrap metal recycling facilities, Alter represents the forefront of environmental leadership within the industry. Alter's approach to environmental responsibility follows a continuous-improvement cycle: .----1>- / Alter's Environmental Policies ", " '-, "\ Management Review Continuous Improvement Cycle Planning \ , Assessment & Corrective Action j / , Ii \ Implementation Specific areas of the Alter environmental program include: >- Corporate Environmental Policies >- Corporate Environmental Management Instructions ("EMls") >- Yard-specific Environmental Plans, such as Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans and Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasure ("SPCC") plans >- Environmental training for all levels of the organization >- Pollution Prevention solutions for yard-specific issues >- Environmental operating permits November 1,2005 Page 2 of3 CPl performs annual third-party on-site audits of environmental compliance at each Alter facility to ensure that each facility is maintaining compliance with Federal and State Environmental Laws; Company environmental policies, plans and EMI's. Non- compliance issue(s) discovered during the auditing process are reported to the senior management and Corrective Action Plans are developed to address the issue. Corrective Action Plans are re-audited by Alter senior management and CPl to assure effectiveness so the audit issue can be closed. The Alter Environmental Management System has been in effect for many years resulting in a high level of environmental compliance at its facilities. Attached is a more detailed presentation of Alter's environmental program. As part of its SWPPPs and SPCC plans, Alter applies Best Management Practices ("BMPs") to assure that stormwater quality and spill prevention are maintained. Although BMPs are specific to individual operations, a few examples of applied BMPs extracted directly from Alter SWPPPs are: . The facility handles and stores scrap turnings and borings. These materials have the potential to be coated with residual cutting fluids consisting of soluble hydrocarbon or synthetic-based oil and have the potential to contribute oils to storm water, if exposed. Customers supplying these materials are required to drain the fluids from the scrap metal to the extent practicable prior to delivering them to Alter. This requirement is communicated to customers through the Inbound Material Source Control Program. Prior to unloading, the loads are inspected to assure no excessive fluids are present. If excessive fluids are present, the load is rejected and returned to the supplier. Turnings and borings are stored on concrete containment pads to further minimize the potential for environmental impact associated with handling of these materials. . Ferrous scrap metal is stored and handled primarily outdoors. To limit the potential for contaminants, the facility implements an Inbound Material Source Control Program that includes aspects of inspection, communication, and employee training. This program restricts acceptance of high-risk scrap items (i.e., sealed containers, transformers, mercury-containing scrap) and dictates how other items can be handled onsite as to minimize the risk of stormwater exposure (e.g., storage on containment pad, storage under roof). In addition to source control, outdoor scrap metal stockpiles are maintained in consolidated piles to minimize storm water exposure and employees are trained to properly and immediately respond to releases of potential contaminants to the ground surface at scrap metal unloading and storing areas. . The facility uses both fixed and mobile hydraulic equipment as part of operations, which has the potential to contribute particulate matter from the handling of scrap metal and oil in the event of a release to stormwater, if exposed. Fixed and mobile hydraulic equipment tanks are subject to the facility's Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure Plan, which minimizes the potential of stormwater exposure by preventing and controlling releases. Facility equipment is subject to CPI Environmental Services, Inc. November 1,2005 Page 3 of3 an established inspection and preventive maintenance program to minimize the occurrence of an uncontrolled release due to equipment failure. . Storm water drainage-way embankments are susceptible to erosion at outfall and sheet flow areas. The onsite vegetated swale is stabilized with the use of vegetation and riprap at erosion-prone areas to prevent soil erosion and sediment accumulations. To prevent embankment erosion, diversionary curbing and concrete spillways are present along the drainage ditch. Riprap is used at discharge points susceptible to excessive erosion. . The potential for significant materials or other unauthorized potential pollutant sources to storm water to enter the facility is to be minimized through implementation of a source control program, as detailed in the Environmental Management Instruction entitled Inbound Recyclable Materials Source Control Program available on the corporate Intranet. In summary, CPI is proud to be a working partner with Alter in its dedication to maintain a leadership position in the industry to protect the environment through the use of "Best Management Practices" and compliance with state and federal environmental laws and regulations.

PLANNED DISTRICT STAFF REPORT Zoning Agenda: November 2, 2005 Project Name: Alter Scrap Processing Property Address: 190 N. Crescent Ridge Property Owner: Tschiggfrie Excavating Company Applicant: Alter Scrap Processing/Dawne O'Meara Proposed Land Use: Industrial Proposed Zoning: PI Existing Land Use: Vacant Existing Zoning: CS/C-3/AG Adjacent Land Use: North - Open space/commercial Adjacent Zoning: North - PRlCS East - Commercial East - CS/C-3 South - Commercial/Residential South - PC/R-2 West - Commercial West - CS Flood Plain: Yes Water: Yes Storm Sewer: No Previous Planned District: None Total Area: 22 acres Existing Street Access: Yes Sanitary Sewer: Yes Purpose: The applicant is requesting rezoning of the subject property to a PUD Planned Unit Development District with a PI Planned Industrial designation to allow the development and operation of a scrap processing and recycling business. Property History: The property was used as a contractor yard in the 1990s with equipment and materials stored on the site. In 2000, the subject property was replatted to create 13 lots for businesses allowed in commercial service and C-3 zoning district. In 2003, a 25,000 square foot metal building was constructed on the site as a spec building. Physical Characteristics: The subject property is located at the end of North Crescent Ridge and lies below Hobby Lobby (former Menard's) and a small residential subdivision to the east. The property is bounded on the north and east by an existing rail line and the Catfish Creek. The property is relatively flat except for areas to the north and east where limestone has been removed creating vertical rock faces. Conformance with Comprehensive Plan: The 2002 Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the western portion of the property as commercial and the eastern portion as open space. This request involves the Comprehensive Plan's Land Use Element: Goals 3.1,3.4,7.1,7.2 and 7.3. Planned District Staff Report- 190 N. Crescent Ridge Page 2 Staff Analysis: Streets: No new streets are planned as part of this development. The extension of North Crescent Ridge platted but not built in 2003 will be vacated if the requested rezoning is approved. Sidewalks: Development of this parcel will require the installation of sidewalk along the property's frontage with North Crescent Ridge. Parking: The applicant is proposing to provide sufficient off-street parking to accommodate employees and customers. The Zoning Ordinance requires one space for each employee on the maximum shift. Lighting: The draft PUD Ordinance restricts outdoor lighting to 90-degree cut-off luminaries. Signage: The draft PUD Ordinance regulates signs based on the signage allowed by the CS Commercial Service and Wholesale District (the existing zoning designation ofthe property). Bulk Regulations: The proposed development of the site for a scrap processing and recycling operation will be in substantial compliance with the attached conceptual development plan. Permeable Area (%) & Location (Open Space): The proposed business will be located primarily on the west side of the subject parcel. The south and eastern portions of the parcel will remain undeveloped as this area is designated as a flood hazard area. Approximately 60 percent of the site will remain undeveloped. Landscaping/Screening: The proposed scrap operation is required to be screened by Section 29-6 of the Municipal Code (attached). Screening is required to obscure scrap material from surrounding property. The salvage yard will not be enclosed with any type of roofed structure. Impact of Request on: Utilities: Existing utilities are adequate to serve the site. Traffic Patterns/Counts: There are no traffic counts available for North Crescent Ridge. The proposed business will not significantly impact the adjacent street system as vehicle trips will be disbursed throughout the day. The number of vehicle trips from the proposed business will be less than the number that would be generated if the subject property was developed as currently platted. Public Services: Existing public services are adequate to serve the site. Planned District Staff Report- 190 N. Crescent Ridge Page 3 Environment: Staff does not anticipate any adverse impacts to the environment provided erosion control is provided during all phases of development and provided that the scrap processing and recycling operation comply with federal and state environmental regulations. Adjacent Properties: Properties adjacent to this development will most likely be impacted through a small increase in traffic over existing conditions and an increase in the noise level from the operation of the facility. CIP Investments: None proposed. Staff Analysis: Alter Scrap Processing is requesting rezoning of the subject property from CS Commercial Service and Wholesale, C-3 General Commercial and AG Agricultural Districts to PUD Planned Unit Development with a PI Planned Industrial District designation. The subject property is located at the end of North Crescent Ridge which was formerly named Menard Court. The roadway was renamed once Menard's relocated to their new store on U.S. Highway 20. The subject property is bordered to the north by an existing rail line, Catfish Creek and City-owned open space, to the east by an existing rail line, Catfish Creek and existing commercial business on Century Circle and Century Drive, to the south by Hobby Lobby (former Menard's building) and a small residential subdivision, and to the west by the Dubuque Humane Society, IWI Motor Parts and Wilwert's. The subject property covers approximately 22 acres. The proposed business involves the processing of scrap metal as well as recycling of various metals. The operation is currently located between Harrison and Salina Streets just south of the Julien Dubuque Bridge. The company is looking to relocate to provide sufficient room for their operation, which has been constrained in the past due to lack of available space within the salvage yard. The subject property is currently vacant and was most recently replatted in 2000 to provide for an extension of the public street and the platting of additional commercial lots. If approved, the applicant will vacate the previously approved plat and consolidate the property into a single lot. The attached conceptual plan indicates that access to the site will be from North Crescent Ridge. The partially completed building on-site will be used as an officel warehouse for the company. Employee and customer parking will be provided as well as a paved area for vehicle maneuvering within the salvage yard. The salvage yard is located on the western portion of the site below the former Menard's building. The property to the east and south will remain undeveloped except for required storm water detention and screening. The scrap processing yard will be otherwise open and not be within an enclosed structure. The office, warehouse and some of the recycling operation will take place in the existing steel building on the site. The proposed operation will take advantage of the existing rail line and construct a rail spur to serve their operation. Access into the storage yard will be restricted by gates for both vehicle and railroad traffic. Planned District Staff Report- 190 N. Crescent Ridge Page 4 Section 29-6 of the Municipal Code (attached) requires that all salvage yards/junk yards be screened from view from the surrounding property. Attached to this staff report is a series of photos taken from the proposed salvage yard providing a 360-degree perspective. The photographs taken in October indicate that the existing trees surrounding the property offer a high degree of screening of the proposed salvage yard. The second series of photographs were taken in early November and show the subject area is less concealed from surrounding property once the leaves have fallen from trees in the area. One of the issues raised at the November Commission meeting was the locations of future bike trails within the City. A memorandum and map was provided at the meeting. The same information is again attached to this staff report for the Commission's review. Another issue raised was the environmental impact of the proposed salvage yard. Attached is the packet of information provided at the November Commission meeting. Planning staff notes that the environmental regulations that the proposed salvage yard is subject to are state and federal regulations that local officials do not have the authority to enforce. The only environmental regulations local officials have the authority to enforce are flood plain regulations. The proposed salvage yard will not be located in the flood plain portion of the property. However, the proposed storm water detention for the property is planned to be located in the flood plain. This is allowed subject to City and State review. The City's Dubuque Industrial Center West and the Dubuque Technology Park both have detention basins located in designated flood plain areas. The most difficult areas to screen the proposed salvage are from surrounding elevated locations such as North Crescent Ridge, the residential homes to the south, Oak Park Place and Medical Associates Clinic. Because of the excavation of the area along North Crescent Ridge, it will be necessary to provide a solid fence of sufficient height to screen the salvage operation from North Crescent Ridge and adjacent businesses. Because of the height of the adjacent single-family homes, though, a fence is not practical for screening purposes immediately adjacent to the salvage yard. This screening would be best applied near the property line with the single-family homes. Another option would be to reduce the eastern limit of the salvage yard to a point where it does not project beyond the quarried wall-face on the south side of the property. The existing topography will then shield the scrap yard from the residences to the south. The Municipal Code for screening of junk/salvage yards requires screening from surrounding property. The Code does not define what surrounding property is to include. Given Dubuque's topography, property elevated above a proposed salvage yard could view the contents of the yard from a considerable distance. The question is, at what distance does the ability to see a junk yard adversely impact the use and enjoyment of a property? Planned District Staff Report- 190 N. Crescent Ridge Page 5 Planning staff recommends that the Zoning Advisory Commission review Section 3-5.5 of the Zoning Ordinance that establishes criteria for the review of Planned Unit Development Districts and Section 6-1.1 that establishes criteria for rezoning requests.

'-.'~"-----", DUB~E ~~~ MEMORANDUM November 2, 2005 TO: FROM: Kyle Kritz, Associate Planner Laura Carstens, Planning Services Manager ~ SUBJECT: Proposed Citywide Bike/Hlke Trail System This memorandum provides the information requested for the Zoning Advisory Commission's public hearing of development of the property at the terminus of North Crescent Ridge Court to allow relocation Of Alter Scrap. The question was potential impact of this type of development on a proposed bikeJhike trail along Catfish Creek. The City is working on the Heritage Trail Riverfront System as the first part of a citywide trail system. The citywide system is a part of the Dubuque Comprehensive Plan. It is also part of the Dubuque Metropolitan Area Transportation Study (DMA TS) Long Range Transportation Plan. The proposed metro area trail system is shown on the enclosed DMA TS map. Development of the Catfish Creek trail is long-term. There is no City money budgeted in the next five years for design, engineering, acquisition or construction of this proposed trail. The City of Dubuque adopted the Heritage Trail Master Plan in 1996. The City has been seeking state and federal grants to develop the Heritage Trail Riverfront System since the plan's adoption. The Heritage Trail Riverfront System extends from 2200 Street to the Mines of Spain through downtown, with connections to parks and attractions on the riverfront. This trail system winds its way through industrial areas, residential and mixed-use neighborhoods, and downtown Dubuque. Approximately 10.5 miles of the 14+ mile system are signed-only bike routes, including the portion through downtown. The remaining portions are off-road trails. Enclosed is a map of the City of Dubuque'S Heritage Trail Riverfront System showing what routes are in place. The City's applications for off-road trails in industrial and mixed-use urban areas have competed very well over the last ten years. The City has received over $1.2 million in state and federal grants to develop this system. . The next trail project that we are working on is an off-road trail along Iowa 32 (the Northwest Arterial). We have received a REAP (Resource Enhancement and Protection) grant to construct Phase 1 of the Iowa 32 Bike/Hike Trail in 2006. Attachments ,'" . -. \,..~ f " i!

Crescent Ridge from CS Commercial Services and Wholesale, C-3 General Commercial and AG Agricultural District to PI Planned Industrial District. Minutes - Zoning Advisory Commission November 2, 2005 Page 2 Dawn O'Meara, General Manager of Alter Scrap Processing, Inc., said that Alter is interested in relocating their business. She said that the existing facility is constrained and that their intent is to move to an area that allows them room to expand. She said the rezoning will enable Alter to relocate from its current location, which is within the gateway to the community. She stated that the facility will be approximately 800 feet from the nearest residential development. She said that the facility will use both intemal and extemal environmental monitoring to ensure compliance with all relevant regulations. Steve Krumpe, attomey with O'Connor and Thomas, stated that he is speaking on behalf of Medical Associates. He said the Medical Associates campus lies immediately north of the proposed rezoning. He discussed conditions goveming the rezoning process outlined in Section 6-1.1 of the City Ordinance, and stated that the proposed project did not meet said requirements. He said that the rezoning is not in the public interest. He said that Highway 20 is busy at this location and traffic from the facility would exacerbate existing traffic problems. He said that the land to the north of the subject lot is parkland that was donated by Medical Associates to the City. He discussed the requirements outlined in the PUD section of the Zoning Ordinance. He said that the area is surrounded by commercial properties and that heavy industrial development is not appropriate next to these businesses. He said that noise generated by Alter's facility will be reflected off of the quarry wall onto the adjacent properties. He discussed salvage yard screening requirements. He said that the proposed facility will generate excessive pollution and drainage and that the scrap yard poses aesthetic concems for Medical Associates campus. Bob Hartig, Director of Facilities for Medical Associates, distributed a packet of information to the Commission. He discussed the initial dedication of parkland adjacent to the proposed facility. He said that a trail will be constructed through the park property and that a scrap yard is not appropriate next to the bike trail and park area. He said that Catfish Creek runs through the subject property, which creates environmental concems. He said that the noise generated by the facility will reflect off of the rock bluff and impact adjacent properties. He distributed photographs illustrating the proximity of Medical Associates buildings to the subject property. He discussed Section 3-4.5 of the Ordinance regarding public open space. He submitted a petition with 15 signatures from neighbors in the Sunset Park Subdivision in opposition to the proposed request. Scott Frank, 7806 Betsy Lane, stated that he is the manager of Oak Park Place. He stated that the Highway 20 Corridor has been improved over the past several years, but the siting of a scrap yard at this location will reverse that trend. He said that he would like to maintain a tranquil setting for his residential care facility. He said the trend in other communities is to purge salvage yards from the urban core. Bill Latham, 35 Oak Grove Drive, said that the noise generated by Tschiggfrie's quarrying activity is excessive. Minutes - Zoning Advisory Commission November 2, 2005 Page 3 Vincent Wernimont, 65 Oak Grove Drive, said he is an adjacent property owner and asked about current zoning. He said he has called the DNR, the EPA and the Mines Safety and Health Administration with concerns regarding blasting and water quality from damaged wells. He asked the Commission to require that the new property owner leave the top of an existing rock wall for a buffer zone. He said that the Catfish Creek Flood Plain is at risk by the proposed development. He said that the neighbors' wells went bad because of quarrying activity on the property. He stated that he wanted no more blasting on the property and no building in the flood plain. He said he did not want any portion of the scrap yard on the southeast section of the property. Clay Wilwert, 145 North Crescent Ridge, said he is the adjacent business owner of the Harley Davidson dealership, and that he has concerns with safety regarding scrap metal on the street. He said that scrap materials on the street will pose a danger to his clientele that ride motorcycles. He said the area is currently commercial and he would like it to remain so. Lee Latham, 35 Oak Grove Drive, said that she is concerned with noise. She expressed concerns regarding sewerage, water quality, weeds, and aesthetics. Dawn O'Meara said that Medical Associates facility is approximately one-quarter mile away from the proposed facility. She said that the intersection of North Crescent Ridge and Dodge Street was designed to handle the additional traffic flow that would be generated by their facility. She said that the subject property is not visible from Highway 20IDodge Street. She said that there is outdoor storage occurring on adjacent commercial properties. She said that the noise levels generated by Alter Scrap will be low and intermittent. She said the facility will be screened as per City standards. She said that Alter had received a letter of support from adjacent property owners, Steve Smith and Tom Luksetich. She said Alter has a street sweeper and their intention is to keep the road clean. She said that Welter's Storage, which is a neighbor to their existing facility, said that noise is not a problem. She said the hours of operation would be from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. five days a week. She said that Harley Davidson motorcycles generate more noise than her facility would. She said that Alter fully intends to be good neighbors. Commissioner Smith asked about the hours of operation and rail car scheduling. Ms. O'Meara said that the faCility would not be open Saturdays or Sundays and that they cannot regulate the rail schedule for their rail spur. She stated that Alter would build a containment center located at the tumingslbusheling storage area. Commissioner Bichell asked about the potential for pollutants to get into the Catfish Creek drainage. Dawn O'Meara said that the containment facility will capture all pollutants and not allow them into the environment. Commissioner Bird asked about the extent of the facility. Ms. O'Meara said that the facility will not be located on the southeast comer of the property. Minutes - Zoning Advisory Commission November 2, 2005 Page 4 Rod Tschiggfrie, 600 Sapphire Circle, said that he has not received complaints from Medical Associates regarding noise on his property. He said that there is an active railroad that bisects the area that generates more noise than the proposed facility. He said that the City's current bike path goes through a number of heavy industrial districts and by Inland Molasses facility, the City's wastewater treatment plant, and Tschiggfrie's excavation company. He said that the property is currently vacant, and they have been having problems with people riding motorcycles and vandalizing their property. He said that the property is located down in a hole at the end of a dead-end street and is very quiet and obscure. He said that recently a storage building was vandalized by a large piece of construction equipment and that no one heard the noise generated by the vandalism. Staff Member Kritz said that salvage yards are only permitted in heavy industrial or planned industrial districts. He said that the planned industrial designation allows more restrictive language to be placed on the salvage yard operation. He discussed the ordinance creating the planned unit development. He discussed the site layout and its proximity to Catfish Creek, He said that no part of the operation will be located on the flood plain, except for the detention basin. He said that although the detention basin is located in the flood plain, it will have to meet DNR and City approval. He discussed the proximity of the adjacent residential uses. He distributed photos and a photo-orientation map for the Commission. He discussed traffic generation and said that the current subdivision would, in all likelihood, generate more traffic than the proposed salvage yard. He discussed screening requirements. He distributed a map and discussed the proposed bike trail alignment and funding schedule. Commissioner Bichell asked about the park's proximity to the facility and the grade level of the bike path. Commissioners discussed the existing bike trails throughout the community. Commissioner Bird asked about the proposed screening. Chairperson Stiles noted that Alter had submitted an environmental packet and that two letters of opposition, one letter of support and a packet of information regarding trails from Planning Services Department Manager Laura Carstens had been received. Commissioner Bird said that it is in the City's best interest to relocate the existing salvage yard from its current location to a more suitable site. He said that the end of North Crescent Ridge is a good location because it is remote. He said that he would prefer to see parking restricted along North Crescent Ridge. He stated that he would also like to see a more detailed screening plan for the facility. Commissioner Hardie said that he feels that this is not an appropriate site for a salvage yard. He said that he feels there is more appropriate property available to the west with adequate rail access. Commissioner Bichell said that, although it is difficult to locate a scrap yard in the community, he is concerned with the facility's impact on Catfish Creek, Minutes - Zoning Advisory Commission November 2, 2005 Page 5 and the potential for damage to the environment He said he is also concemed with its impact on the proposed bike trail. Commissioner Schiltz said that Alter's facility will operate from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. five days a week and that, in his experience, most bike traffic occurs in the evenings or on weekends. He said that the facility should have little impact on the trail. He said that the area is located in a hole, that it is obscured from view, and that the noise generated here would be muted by the adjacent hillsides. He said that the property has a rail spur that is necessary for the industrial activity proposed. He said that he does not believe the environment or the flood plain will be impacted. Commissioner Smith stated that he feels this is a good spot for the facility. He said that he feels a more detailed screening plan is necessary. He said that the City cannot limit all development around proposed bike paths. Chairperson Stiles said that the area is not directly next to a highway, but adjacent to a railroad and other commercial activity. He said that he would also like to see a more detailed screening plan. Commissioner Schiltz said that it is difficult for the Commission to restrict parking on a pUblic street just for Alter. Staff Member Kritz discussed problems with restricting parking on City streets. He said that parking along the streets is a shared resource, and that all parking would have to be restricted by the City Council for all vehicles. Dawn O'Meara said that she would be willing to restrict Alter Scrap's employees parking along North Crescent Ridge. Commissioner Hardie asked Staff Member Kritz to read the rezoning criteria established in Section 6-.1.1 of the Ordinance. Staff Member Kritz read said criteria and Commissioner Hardie said that he did not feel that the applicant demonstrated that said criteria had been met. He said that there are other more appropriate areas in the city where Alter could locate their facility. Commissioners discussed the criteria for granting a rezoning. Commissioner Sichell said that the impact of the facility on the aesthetics and visibility from Medical Associates is still an issue. Commissioners discussed the screening plan and screening requirements for a salvage yard. Commissioner Schiltz said that screening is needed along Oak Grove Drive and he recommended six-foot plantings. Commissioners felt that the proposed rezoning should be tabled and that the applicant should bring a more detailed landscaping plan to the next regularly scheduled meeting. Minutes - Zoning Advisory Commission November 2, 2005 Page 6 Motion by Bird, seconded by Smith, to table the request with the requirement that the applicant provide a detailed landscaping plan. Motion was approved by the fOllowing vote: Aye - Smith, Hardie, Bird, Schiltz, Bichell and Stiles; Nay - None. PUBLIC HEARING\REZONING\243 VALLEY ST.: Application of Greg & Nancy Adams to rezone property located at 243 Valley Street from R-1 Single-Family Residential District to R-2 Two-Family Residential District. Greg Adams reviewed his request, noting that he plans to consolidate four lots into two lots, and then build two side-by-side two-unit buildings. He stated that storm water courses off of this property onto the adjacent lots and that has historically been the fact. Pete Langolis, 263 Valley Street, outlined his Concerns regarding the rezoning. He stated that he felt rezoning these four lots was a spot zoning. He expressed concerns about traffic safety, increased density, and the potential for additional runoff. He said that it would be possible for Mr. Adams to build four duplexes on this site. Marla Federson, 205 Valley Street, said that she had concerns with storm water problems that she is currently experiencing. She said that it is possible that the proposed duplexes could be rental property, and that the neighborS would have no control over the type of tenants that may occupy the units. Mike McCarron, 210 Valley Street, said he had concerns about traffic safety, storm water runoff and spot zoning. Mary Meyer, 391 Mountain Lane, said she is concerned about being located next to rental property and she is concerned with children driving through the woods with four-wheel drive vehicles. Mr. Adams stated that his intention is to build two townhouse-style duplexes, noting that it is possible currently to rent out single-family homes. Staff Member Hemenway reviewed the staff report, the surrounding zoning and land use, topography of the area, and existing storm water drainage. He discussed potential vehicle trips from the duplexes versus single-family homes. He discussed the former use of the site as a non-conforming tree service staging area. Commissioners discussed the topography and access issues to the proposed dwellings. The Commissioners reviewed the former use of the site and Chairperson Stiles noted that the former owner created much of the debris and materials on the site.

Scrap Processing Rezoning Request To: City of Dubuque I'lanning & Zoning Commillee: T am writing to express my opposition to thc request to rezone 22 acres of property located at 190 N. Crescent Ridge mlm CS,C-3, and AG to Planned Unit Development with a primary indu~1.rial use (PI). I represent the owners of the Wingate Propcr.lies, which is a 22 acre multi-fwnily development (R4) located at the southwcst comer of Pcnnsylv-dnia A venue and Sylvan Road. My opposition is based on concerns for noise that would come from a Sct"dp processing and recycling business as well as concerns for the adverse visual impact from such an operation. 1 have read the stalTreport and it is my personal opinion that this would be an incompatible use with the existing neighbllring uscs. Thc intersection of Highway 20 and Crescent Ridge Road is an extremely busy commercial interscction. I do not bclieve it makes sense to mix an industrial use such as this with that" commercial traffic. The biggest problem 1 have is with the visual impact. Yes, this location would be out of view of everything to the south. However, because of the topography, absolulely everything located IlJ the north would have a bird's eye vicw of tbis operation. The neighbors to the north arc predominately residential with a very high concentration of mulli-fnmi Iy and most of those arc multi-story buildings which further cxacerbates the problem. Again, I have read the staff report and 1 am: aware oflhe rigid screening requirements. However, because of the topogrdphy, it would be virtUally impos.ible to properly sereen this operation unless you put a dome over the whole thing. The owners of thc Wingate Properties respectfully request that you deny this reznning request. ~i ercly, ~ . ~~"'.f'.

We curt.ntly hav'c cars lined up going down the street at busy:times blocking the aCcess road to McDonald Drive. We feel this large of an increase in traffi.c may be disruptive and dangerous. Our volunteers walk dogs in the area and we are concerned about their safety too. One question r did not ask Dawn was if they would be parking vehicles along the street. Again. " we have concerns about having truck, parked in front of our business and the safety of people pulliils into Or out of our busines8. We respectfully request no equipment or trucks be parked'on the street. We are also wondering about SCrllp falling off of vehicles on their way to Alter s.6i'av' Processing. " .

CITY OF DUBUQUE, IOWA MEMORANDUM April 16, 1996 TO: Zoning Advisory Commission FROM: Kyle L. Kritz, Associate PlannerylZ SUBJECT: Request by Medical Associates to Amend Conceptual Development Plan INTRODUCTION Medical Associates Realty has submitted a revised conceptual development plan for their west side campus located at the intersection of the Northwest Arterial and Chavenelle Drive. . Medical Associates is. submitting the revised conceptual development plan to allow a second right~in,.'right-out access onto the Northwest Arterial, deletion of the secondary emergency access to Donovan Drive, and to replat the property to provide additional outlots for future sale:.... DISCUSSION Medical Associate's received app'rova( to rezone the 100~acre parcel along the Northwest Arterial from R-1 Single-Family Residential to PUD District with a PC Planned Commercial District designation and a PR Planned Residential District designation on May 16, 1994. The approved conceptual development plan provided for one main access from Chavenelle Road serving a new publ ic street named Associates Drive. The proposed medical office buildin9 provided for a total of 360,000 square feet of floor area to be built in three phases of approximately 120,000 square feet each, 7 outlots for office/retail/service businesses, and approximately 10 acres of land on the east side of the development for future residential development. The submitted revised conceptual plan resubdivides the outlots to provide 9 putlots rat?er,than thi\)~,,9,~~~ill~1~alPl a~t:d~rl~QHCing,;re.}ize of th~, outl o~~~." ',"'fnt1" .... 'C. . .'" 'The"rep a .tin~"of is s rlct wou e res, en ial area as Lot 11, the storm water detention area as Lot 12, a greenway buffer adjacent to Cora Drive would be designated Lot 13 and park land/open space to be dedicated to the City, will be designated as Lot 14. City staff have reviewed the proposed replatting of the Medical Associates PUD and have no objection to the proposed lot changes. City Engineering have determined that the two additional outlots will not substantially increase the number of trips entering and exiting the site and have not required an updated traffic study. The proposed right-in, right-out only access onto the Northwest Arterial, has been reviewed by City Engineering staff and is in compliance with the required Zoning Advisory Commission April 23, 1996 Page 2 separation of 1,000 feet between access points as stipulated by Section 41-34 of the Municipal Code, which stipulates that the minimum spacing between access locations of 1,000 feet. City Engineering staff have also reviewed the proposed second access in terms of its design and submitted comments to the applicant. Staff recommends that if the second access is approved, that it be subject to its design being reviewed and approved by City Engineering during review of the final pl at. The Fire Marshal's Office has reviewed the amended conceptual plan and has indicated that removal of the secondary emergency access to Donovan Drive is not recommended. The recommendation isbased on the size of the development where fully developed and that the proposed second access is restricted to right-in, right-out only. In addition, while the proposed new access would provide two means of access to the site, both will be from the Northwest Arterial. A greater degree of safety is afforded with an access available from Donovan Drive. RECOMMENDATION. Staff recommends that if the Zoning Commission recommends approval of the proposed changes to Medical Associates Clinic conceptual development plan that it be subject to maintaining a secondary emergency access between Donovan Drive and Associates Drive, and that the design of the second access to the Northwest Arterial be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer. ACTION STEP The action step is for the Zoning Advisory Commission to make'a recommendation to the City Council on the proposed amendments to the Medical Associates Clinic conceptual development plan.

So will west and south Dubuque through city and private efforts to create more neighborhood parks. The city plans to announce within a month where it would like to build a new west side park - one of three being sought to meet that area's residential growth. . On Tuesday, the Parks and Recreation Commission is expected to discuss how it will go about meeting with park neighbors, designing the park, as well as negotiating the sale, said Oil Spence, the city leisure services director. "We want to talk to neighbors before we talk about a purchase," Spence said. "This park alone would not meet our entire west-side park need." ' The city has set aside $70,000 for a west side park. Other city park plans: * The city is completing plans to demolish a home it owns at 508 Loras Blvd. to create a small park. The city included $40,000 in next year's budget, which begins July 1, to remove the house and garage, seed and landscape the property, and install new play equipment. The house was part of the city DREAMS program, which buys dilapidated homes and then helps low and moderate income residents buy and renovate them. The house slated to be demolished couldn't be sold through the city housing program. "The park is small, but it's better than what the neighborhood has now," Spence said. "Children in the area need some room to play and run around." http://nl.newsbank.comlnl-search/we/Archives?p_ action=doc&p _ docid=OEAE46CC2E65... 10/31/2005 Telegraph Herald Archives: ArtICle J:a.~t:: ~ Ul.i. The city plans to use the land along Catfish Creek as a natural area with some walking trails. * Developer Marty McNamer donated property on Marner Ridge for a neighborhood park. The city plans to spend about $25,000 in two years to develop it. * The city plans to develop II acres owned by Dubuque Community Schools at Valentine and Cody drives. The park, which would cost about $500,000 over several years, would include a ball field, playground area and soccer field. * The city will develop in the next two years a half acre that will be donated in Sunny Slopes subdivision. The park is expected to have play equipment, tables and benches. * The city will continue work to renovate and upgrade several community neighborhood parks. This summer, the city -,yill replace equipment and improve Madison, Burden, Valley High and Gay parks. The city also will install play equipment at the new Cancer Survivor Park, which will be maintained by The Finley Hospital. Last year, the city improved Hilltop and Jackson parks. In previous years, Comiskey Park received new equipment and fencing. Spence said the city will spend $70,000 this summer to buy play units. "We're trying to meet the basic need for neighborhood parks," he said.

' ' , . . . .' '". '.'. Those systems include Heritage Trail and the Mississippi riverfront, Catfish Creek,the Northwest Arterial and an urban system. One possible controversial element includes proposals to eliminate some city parking, such as along part of Asbury Road and University Avenue, to make room for biking lanes. City and area transportation leaders will consider the proposal Thursday at a Dubuque Metropolitan Transportation Study meeting for inclusion in its long-range plan. Transportation planners could not say how much the trails would cost or how long they would take to develop. But the primary goals, says Dave Pesch, a planner for East Central Intergovernmental Association, which provides assistance to the transportation group, are to improve safety and create more recreation opportunities. Bikers have complained that rough, narrow roads make riding around Dubuque dangerous. And Pesch said the hilly terrain also makes biking difficult. "Most people in this area don't buy a bike unless they buy a rack so they can drive to Heritage Trail," Pesch said. He said the proposed trail systems would be built or located on publicly owned land, roads and natural areas. Many of the roads included in the bikepath plan are already slated for improvement, Pesch said, so separate paths could easily be added. The areas now identified for possible improvements: · Expanding Heritage Trail to connect with the northern part of the Mississippi ri verfront. http://nl.newsbank.comlnl-searchlwe/Archives?p_ action=doc&p _ docid=OEAE45DE5C 1... 10/31/2005 -Telegraph Herald Archives: Article rage 1. ot j A series of trails would link Riverview Park, Eagle Point park, Four Mounds and the Fourth Street Peninsula. Planners propose the trail system extend from 32nd Street, where Heritage Trail will eventually end, along the Elm Street Corridor on existing streets, alleys and abandoned railroad right-of-way to Garfield A venue. The trail system could then branch off and include Schmitt Island and Lock and Dam No.1!. Also, a path could be added farther north along the "toe of the bluff." Pesch said the city already has hired an engineer to study the best route for the riverfront system and detennine how much it will cost. * Connecting the Northwest Arterial to an urban system would include using mostly existing streets, primarily along Grandview Avenue, Asbury Road and the Northwest Arterial. Nonnally, planners would avoid paths around "funnel intersections," such as Loras, University and Asbury, Pesch said, but because those have already been identified for future improvements, biking lanes could be added at the same time. And the Iowa Department of Transportation's plans to widen the Northwest Arterial from Dodge Street to Kennedy Road and eventually extend it to U.S. 52 should include room for biking paths, Pesch said. * A Catfish Creek and a southemriverfront link wO\lld start near the Mines of SpaiIl. Recreation Area and follow the Catfish Creek valley floodplain. "The first portion of the network links the southern half of the riverfront with the Mines of Spain and E.B. Lyons Nature Preserve and ?peIls the: picturesqueCatfiph Creek. Nalley," the planners wrote the transportationgroup~ . ... Fremont Avenue could provide parking for users of that trail. And user pennits, like those used on Heritage Trail, could be used to help pay for maintenance. The city already owns right-of-way along the Catfish Creek to service its sanitary sewer system. * Linking downtown to the Hill area would require using Kane Street, Kaufmann Avenue, West Locust Street, Loras Boulevardand University Avenue, planners say. However, "these streets are not ideal because of the grade, and a safe, logical connection may have to be detennined by a traffic engineering study," planners wrote the transportation group. The grade of the roads and their condition are a concern, Pesch said. "There is some concern about safety and questions about liability."

For this reason, and because the original zoning district boundaries under this Ordinance are presumed to be correct and appropriate, it shall hereafter be the policy of the City Council to reclassifv propertv onlv where a clear showing has been made that the original classification was a mistake or that circumstances and conditions affecting the propertv in question have so materiallv changed so as to demand reclassification in the public interest. * * * Furthermore, it is contemplated under this Ordinance that the Long-Range Planning Advisorv Commission is. in the first instance. the bodv responsible for the formulation and continuin!! review of the Comprehensive Plan. as expressed herein. and that the Commission shall be char!!ed with the dutv of periodicallv reviewing the policies and provisions of this Ordinance in light of its purooses and changing conditions. and proposin!! on its own initiative such district reclassifications or ordinance amendments as mav be deemed appropriate to secure the public welfare. B. Screening requirements: The Plan does not provide the level of screening required. The screening is required to block the junkyard from all public view, not just from the immediately abutting properties or properties within 200 feet. Putting a ten foot ugly fence around a junkyard that is located forty feet or more lower than the surrounding residential and commercial areas may protect the bugs in the grass from offensive views, but it does nothing for the people living, getting health care, traveling, or shopping at surrounding locations that are forty feet higher in elevation. The screening requirements are as follows: Sec. 29-6. Fencing Requirements For Junk And Salvage Operations: (a) An operator of a junkyardlsalvage operation shall submit to the city development planner a screening plan which shall be approved for each individual premises. The screening plan shall integrate the screen with the natural surroundings and shall consider and make provisions to assure reasonable access to the screen for purposes of maintaining the screens. (b) The purpose of screening is to eliminate the visual impact of the iunkvard contents bv obscuring it from view outside the premises. (c) Materials for use in screening of junkyard shall generally consist of natural objects, pJantings, fences, or other appropriate means such as storage sheds, buildings and other similar elements. O'CONNOR & THOMAS, P.C. Zoning Advisory Commission December 7, 2005 Page 3 (2) Plantings shall be shrubs and trees of such types as to orovide vear round obscurement commensurate with local site conditions. All plant material used for screening shall be of a size and quantitv to provide obscurement. (3) Screens shall be made of wood, metal or other materials commonly used in the building trade, and shall be of such height and type as necessary to provide obscurement. . . . C. PUD requirements: The ordinance also provides criteria for creation of a Planned Unit Development. The requested rezoning does not meet the requirements for a PUD under Dubuque's ordinance. The ordinance states: 3-5.5. Planned Unit Development District (PUD). (A) . . . Regulations for this district are designed: * * * (4) To encourage new development to preserve and utilize existing land characteristics and features which offer visual recreational benefits or other amenities; (5) To promote the economic. attractive, innovative and harmonious arrangement and design of new buildings, streets, utilities and other improvements or structures; (6) To provide a living, working and shopping environment within the lavout of the site that contributes to a sense of communitv and a coherent lifestvle; (7) To provide for the creation and preservation of more and larger useable public or common ooen spaces than would normally be provided under conventional development; * * * (C) Permitted Uses: Each planned unit development shall allow any principal permitted use allowed by the zoning ordinance, which bv design and use and restriction is compatible with all adiacent uses, and which is specifically listed in the ordinance adopted for the PUD. * * * (D) Development Regulations: . . . In all PUDs the following minimum standards shall be met: (I) General Standards: (a) The densitv and design of the PUD shall be compatible in use. size and tvoe of structure. relative amount of open space. traffic circulation and general O'CONNOR & THOMAS, P.C.

(b) The POO shall take into consideration the imoact in existing streets and utilities. (c) The economic. environmental and neil):hborhood imoacts of the development shall be considered. (d) The POO shall conform with the adooted long range comorehensive plan. *** (F) Plan Approval Standards. The Zoning Commission and City Council shall not approve the POO application plan unless and until the Commission and Council determine that the conceptual development plan conforms to each of the following standards: (1) The conceptual development plan is in substantial conformance with adooted Comorehensive Plan to guide the future growth and develooment of Dubuque. * * * (3) The proposed development shall not interfere with the aooropriate use and enjovment of orooerty on abutting districts. * * * (5) Natural drainage areas are retained as appropriate and imoroved if necessarv. (6) Due consideration is given to preserving natural site amenities and minimizing the disturbance to the natural environment. Incomuatibilitv with Comurehensive Plan Dubuque's Comprehensi ve Plan does not provide for industrial development in the area selected by Alter Scrap to relocate. The Comprehensive Plan does, however, require development to proceed in specific ways, with which the Alter Scrap plan is entirely inconsistent. The Comprehensive Plan requires development in accordance with the following criteria: four To balance open space and environmental preservation with the community's development needs. 4.1 Protect and oreserve existing ooen sT;>ace and oark land to meet the communitv's needs. 4.2 Encourage exoansion of urban green spaces in suitable locations. O'CONNOR & THOMAS, P.C. Zoning Advisory Commission December 7.2005 Page 5 * * * 4.5 Limit development along bluff lines and protect scenic vistas. 4.6 Protect and enhance riverfront and related wetlands. waterwav corridors and other sensitive land areas. five Encourage that the physical character and form of the city reflects its historic setting and that the built environment is compatible with the city's natural environment. 5.1 Define and enhance citv gatewavs and focal points to create a sense of place. * * * 5.3 Protect natural vistas from the clutter of inappropriate phvsical development. * * * six Encourage the concept of mixed use development to create diverse and self-sufficient neighborhoods. * * * 6.2 Buffer and protect incompatible uses from each other. Unnecessarv. Impractical. and a Betraval of Trust There is ample property available in the City of Dubuque already zoned for industrial use that is now vacant. Nobody at the meeting on Nov. 2denied this obvious fact. In 1994, Medical Associates donated 33 acres immediately bordering the proposed junkyard for use as a natural area with walking trails. Aside from the utter inconsistency of those uses with a junkyard, what message would rezoning the immediately adjacent property for development as a junkyard send: "We're not only going to use for incompatible purposes, we're going to use it for a junkyard right next to you!" The rezoning would be a betrayal of the gift of the property to the City. It will not be overlooked by future donors. (See Exhibit 1 attached.) The junkyard will abut Catfish Creek. The pollution prospects from this location are manifest and obvious. The drainage scheme for the original12-lot commercial development is utterly inadequate to properly drain the property if it is covered with large structures and paving, as Alter's plan shows it will be. The detention basin is about one-third the size it would need to be for Alter's development. O'CONNOR & THOMAS, P.C. Zoning Advisory Commission December 7,2005 Page 6 The City's settlement with Alter Scrap in 1998, which arose out of numerous code violations by Alter Scrap at its current location, required Alter to use its best efforts to relocate to an area "which is aooropriatelv zoned for the conduct of its business." Alter has failed utterly to comply with this requirement of its settlement with the City. (See Exhibit 2 attached.) Alter has instead requested to relocate into the middle of the busiest traffic, shopping, professional complex, restaurant, motel area in Dubuque County. It has requested a junkyard be made the western gateway to the City for daily commuters and tourists. The rezoning would reduce the City's tax base. The property has fat more tax base value as commercial property than as a junkyard. The junkyard would also reduce the value of adjoining property that will no longer be developed for normal commercial uses. Medical Associates itself has property overlooking what would become the junkyard. The rezoning would destroy that economic value and deprive the City of more tax base. Trucks will use Highway 20 for access to the proposedjunkyard site. Highway 20 is the most congested traffic route in the City of Dubuque. Adding a sprinkling of the inevitable debris that will fall from the steady parade of trucks into the junkyard would pose a serious safety hazard to traffic on Highway 20 and will in any event significantly increase congestion. Many neighbors of the property appeared on Nov. 2 to speak in opposition to the rezoning. Petitions were submitted then, and tonight. The neighbors have no confidence in the assurances that all will be well, because all has been unwell at the site for a long time with the excavation that has gone on already. Nor should the City have confidence - Alter's history of violations at its present site (the files on which are too voluminous to attach to this letter, but which are referenced in Exhibit 2) has cost it credibility on that account. Medical Associates respectfully requests that the Commission deny the request for rezoning. Very truly yours, O'CONNOR & THOMAS, P.e. y~e Stephen C.

Van Milligen, City Manager SUBJECT: Alter Trading Corporation, 180 Harrison Street - Suspension of Salvage License ,.... On August 13, 1998, I suspended the salvage license of Alter Trading Corporation, 180 Harrison Street, for thirty days as a result of repeated violations of the City Code that requires that the screening of junk and salvage yards obscure the materials from view and be maintained in good repair. Alter's code violations date back to November, 1986, and were documented in the information packet sent to the City Council in September, 1998. Since this is an existing facility, the City does not enforce the ordinance requiring that materials be screened from view from elevated areas such as the Julien Dubuque Bridge, Cleveland Park, or St. Dominic's Villa. However, Alter Scrap repeatedly allows the material to be stored above the fence making the material visible from Locust and Dodge. Alter Trading Corporation appealed the suspension of their license, and a public ,hearing was set for October 5, 1998. The City Council tabled this hearing, at the request of Alter Trading, to November 2, 1998, pending resolution of the suspension through an agreement with the City. .... Assistant City Attorney Tim O'Brien has attempted to negotiate a settlement with Alter Trading Corporation that contains the terms agreed to at a meeting I had with Alter's legal counsel, Curtis Beason, and another representative of Alter Scrap, Brent Siegerst, on Monday, September 28, 1998. To date, we have not reached an agreement with Alter. The attached letter to Alter describes this point of disagreement and indicates that the matter will be presented to the City Council. "" I respectfully request that a hearing be held on November 2, 1998, and that the City Council uphold the thirty day suspension of Alter's license.

Alter Trading Corporation may appeal this suspension to the City Council. The effective date of the suspension is postponed for a period of ten (10) days from today's date to allow for the filing of such an appeal.

At that time, we briefly discussed the history of the salvage yard and past violations of the City Code. You agreed to repair certain fence panels fronting Salina Street, and will continue to inspect the entire fence (e.g., facing Selco's property) for damage and maintenance purposes. I trust that all of the holes will be patched and repairs will be completed by September 4, 2001. If the City construction project concerning Salina Street interferes with or impedes the fence repair work, please let me know. Enclosed for your information and review is a copy of a Settlement and Stipulation between the City and Alter Scrap Trading Corporation signed on November 16, 1998. It is my understanding the agreement is currently in effect. In the event that the promises made in Paragraph 2 or 3 by Alter are not performed, the City will act to suspend Alter's salvage license, unless the City Manager determines otherwise. When we met, the scrap pile was not visible above the fence line. The salvage yard and surrounding area were well maintained except for a few fence panels in need of repair.

(Ord. 88-92, 92, 11-16-1992; Ord. 63-01,91,10-1-2001) Sec. 33-51. Enforcement: A. Noise Barriers 1. Technical Considerations and Barrier Effectiveness Noise barriers are solid obstructions built between the highway and the homes along the highway. Effective noise barriers can reduce noise levels by 10 to 15 decibels, cutting the loudness of traffic noi;e in half. Barriers can be formed from earth mounds along the road (usually called earthberms) or from high, vertical walls. Earthberms have a very natural appearance and are usually attractive. However, an earthberm can require quite a lot of' land if it is very high. Walls take less space. They are usually limited to 8 meters in height because of structural and aesthetic reasons. Noise walls can be built out of. wood, stucco, concrete, masonry, metal, and other materials. Many attempts are being. made to construct noise barriers that are visually pleasing and that blend in with their surroundings. ( "-."' There are no Federal requirements or FHWA regulations related to the selection of material types to be used in the construction of highway traffic noise barriers.. Individual SHAs select the ma'terial types to be . used when building these barriers.' The SHAs .normally make this selection based. on a number of factors such aesthetics, durability and maintenance, costs, public comments. ecc . The FHWA does not specify the type of. material that must be used for noise_ barrie~ cons~ruction, but the material type that is chosen. must meet S.tate specifications which have been approved by the FHWA. The material chosen should be rigid and of sufficient density (approximately 20 kilograms/square meter minimum) to provide a transmission loss of 10 dBA greater than the expected reduction .in the noise diffracted over the top of the barrier. Noise barriers do have. limit:ations. For a noise barrier to work, it musC- be high enough and long enough to block the view of a road. ~ _~~~!lB.Y..4.'1;~~;elEm~?5~'i'i.-i,.,a,1!S:i'@.rJro-..,rl~~~ or for buildings which rise above cbie"oarrier. A noise barrier can achieve a 5 .dB noise level reduction when it is tall enough to break the line-of-sight from the highway to the receiver and it can achieve an approximate 1.5 dB additional noise level reduction for each meter of height after it breaks the line-of-sight (with a maximum theoretical total reduction of 20 dBA). To avoid undesirable end-effects, a good rule-of-thumb is that the barrier.should extend 4 times as far in each direction as the distance from the receive.r to the barrier. Openings.in noise walls for driveway connections or intersecting streets destroy the effectiveness of barriers. In some areas, homes are scattered too far apart to permit noise barriers to be built at a reasonable cost. f 1Z6M.". {<O"{ f<\VNAfj~ OF'F\~ ~ w,c..m0l\\.

Negative reactions have included a rescriction of view, a feeling of confinement, a loss of air circulation, a loss oe ' surilighC and lighting, and poor maincenance of che barrier.

Design Considerations A successful design approach f~r noise barriers should be multic1isciplinary and should include architects/planners, landscape architects, roadway engineers, acoustical engineers, and s'tructural engineers. Noise reduction goals influence acoustical consic1erations.and .in ~onjunction with nonpacoustical con~iderations,su~h as maintenance, .safety, aesth~tics. physical conscruccion, cost, and community part1cipation, c1etermine various barrier design options.. 33 KAMPERMAN ASSOCIATES INC. 312 Wluiblngton Avenue Wisconslll Dells., WI 53965 Phone: 608-154-5656 FAX: _l53-6238 Emall: gcorge@kamperma.ll.C'OrD December 7, 2005 Robert Hartig, AlA Director of Facilities Medical Associates Clinic 1500 Associates Drive Dubuque, ]A 52002 Subject: Noise impact of proposed Alter Trading'Scrap Yard This Jetter is in response to your telepbone call followed up with an E-mail with numerous photographs and site plans of the proposed scrap yard to be located on the south side of the CC&P Railroad and the north side ofUS-20 and about 2,000 feet east of Hwy-32. Modern day scrap yards are very productive and move many tons of iron and steel daily for reprocessing by others such as steel mills. Scrap is moved, sorted and loaded into railcars by mobile cranes using electric magnets to pickup and release the scrap metal. This activity produces a very high level of impact noise with each release of the scrap metal from the electric magnet. I have been providing noise control consulting services for a steel mill in Wisconsin for several years. The steel mill operation that continually generates the most complaints from residents is the scrap yard operations. Yet the nearest residents are all more than 1,000 feet from the scrap yard. Over the years, the steel mill has been making numerous procedural changes and partially enclosing the scrap yard. The steel mill has eliminated all nighttime movement of railcars, terminated all night delivery of scrap and retrained all crane operators to not drop any scrap during nighttime. During nighttime hours the crane operators carefully lower the scrap to rest the load on top of the existing scrap pile before releasing the magnet. The continuing challenge is to quietly build a scrap pile without having the pile suddenly shift and slide (due to gravity) which can produce a high noise level. This careful handling of scrap slows production significantly and is sometimes difficult to enforce the "quiet" operational procedures. At the present time I am providing engineering noise control recommendations for a new steel mill in Chicago next to a residential area similar to the proposed Alter Trading operation. This steel mill will have a scrap yard associated with a large electric arc furnace. The melting of scrap metal is the current trend for producing high grade steel products. The process involves far less energy and air emissions than heating iron ore. At the initial meeting on this steel mill project the company president agreed to a totally KAMPERMAN ASSOCIATES INC. Robert Hartig December 7, 2005 Page 2 of2 enclosed scrap yard operation. The scrap yard building is to be constructed with special acoustical walls, doors, roof and a silenced ventilation system to contain all scrap yard related noise within the building. The scrap building will be large enough to contain railcars and scrap trucks with all acoustical doors closed. This type of enclosed scrap yard operation is required to meet the Chicago and/or State of Illinois ohjective noise limit standards at residential land use 500 to 600 feet from the facility. Needless to say, the transfer operations such as these are to enclose such activities when they are located near residential areas. The proposed Alter Trading scrap yard operation in Dubuque would have assisted living residents starting at a distance of 500 feet north-northwest of the proposed scrap yard, a large residential area starting about 830 feet north ofihe proposed area, two existing occupied homes 550 feet south of the proposed area and two hotels less than 900 feet southwest of the proposed scrap yard. It is my professional opinion that the proposed Alter Trading scrap yard could not meet the Chicago or State ofTIlinois environmental noise limits even with the addition of practical noise barriers. Furthermore, the resulting impact noise from the scrap yard would be judged very disturbing to many residents in the area because the impact noise emission from scrap yard operations is so different in character from normal urban vehicle noise.
