Regular Council Meeting <br />11-17-97 <br />Page 5 <br />Mr. Marquardt asked if dust control has been addressed. <br />Mr. Sheehy said they do not anticipate a problem with dust. The hauling will occur over the next <br />5-6 weeks. Everything is wet now. Should it become a problem, there are methods they would <br />use to control the dust. They will put some calcium chloride down to keep dust to a minimum. <br />That will be one of the comments the Village Engineer will have on the plans. The pond is an <br />ornamental type pond. They will protect it from any type of runoff from the stockpile. <br />Mr. Buckholtz questioned their plans during the year. <br />Mr. Sheehy said they would like to use this material on the site to fill some low spots. They <br />would like the flexubility of having the ma.terial there and available to them. <br />Mr. Ferrante asked what would happen if they could not stockpile the dirt. <br />Mr. Sheehy said they would ha.ve to haul it off the site. <br />Another representative from Progressive, in the _audience, said the dirt will only be there for one <br />year or less. <br />Mr. Hovancsek said the soil that is there will be relatively contaminated. It is a mix of topsoil and <br />embankment material. Soils mixed with organics, as determined by a testing lab, cannot be used <br />for embankments or to build roads or parking lots. The soil can be used in other areas around the <br />building such as tree lawn areas. He clarified it is not contaminated environmentally. It is not just <br />clean cla.y; it is contaminated with topsoil and is co-mingled. He does not want the material to be <br />used as a.base for pavement because the freeze-thaw cycle will cause it to expand and break up. <br />It is coming from a pile of topsoil on Alpha. Drive. <br />Mr. Busa questioned how unsightly the stockpile will be. Many retired people live in the area. <br />Seeing the dying golf course is bad, but seeing an obstruction or monstrosity will be even more <br />distasteful. <br />Mr. Sheehy said it will be positioned about 800' from the roadway. It will not be something like a <br />monstrosity you would see driving by the golf course. It will be tall when you aze right up against <br />it. Seeing it from 800' away, it won't look as large. They will seed it and put grass over it so it <br />does not erode and so it will appear green in the spring. <br />Mr. Busa said the material is coming from another city. He asked why Mayfield Village is being <br />used as a dumping ground. <br />Mr. Sheehy said it is part of an overall site pla.n-that they will need material. Progressive will be <br />in need of the ma.terial to build up the site. They can either use this material or they will be <br />hauling material in from somewhere.
