REGULAR MEETING MARCH 26, 1984 yard. Mr. Dunfee asked whether in the interest of efficiency and cost whether the resolution being prepared could include a Board recommendation that no activity be conducted within the 500 feet unless it was within an enclosed structure. Mr. Hill answered that this is the most sensitive one of the three areas that the Common Council will be reviewing. He stated that he would prefer that Metal Resources return to the Board at a later time concerning this matter as the Board wants to make sure there is a very definite line drawn. Mr. bunfee stated that Metal Resources is the only scrapyard dealer subject to any of these regulations and as a matter of public record wants the Board to know that they are doing a good job and they want everyone to know that. He stated that Metal Resources is happy to abide by the findings of the Board and Council but does not want to be in a position to come back before the Board at a later time concerning the building of a warehouse/office and have it stated that the request was pre- viously denied by the Board. Mr. Hill indicated that he wished the record to reflect that this is not a denial by the Board, and stated that if Metal Resources plans to construct in the area in the future, the criteria that they are going to have to rely on is that it be all enclosed. He stated that the Board at this point is going to report to the Common Council that there will be no immediate activity in the area subject to another independent request in the future.
