436 REGULAR MEETING NOVEMBER 26, 1984 Councilman Thomas Zakrzewski was present and asked what has developed since the public hearing of the Board of Zoning Appeals in that the application indicated that a Transfer Station and Recycling Operation would be conducted. Mr. Fedder explained that in the past the license applications contained one place to be checked -off for Transfer Station and Recycling Operations and in order to complete the application as accurately as possible, both items were checked -off on the new application. Mr. Hill confirmed that Mr. Fedder did have discussions with his office approximately two (2) weeks ago regarding this matter of correctly completing the license application. Councilwoman Beverly Crone asked if Mr. Fedder anticipated that all contracts with the supplier and the Bendix Corporation would be signed when the applicant comes back for renewal in 1985. In response Mr. Fedder answered yes, but also stated that if the application discussed today is not received by the Common Council until January of 1985, the contracts might not be signed. Mr. Collier stated that Bendix's first question to him is whether or not all the legalities have been worked out with the City as they are making a substantial investment in this operation. Mr. Zakrzewski stated that along those same lines, the City must be sure that all legalities are worked out on its part before the license can be granted. There being no further discussion regarding this matter, upon a motion made by Mr. Leszczynski, seconded by Mr. Hill and carried, the Recycling Operation license application of Something of Value, Inc. was continued until December 3, 1984, in order to give the applicant time to meet with the Department of Code Enforcement and the Fire Department to formulate a timetable in which all violations can expect to be corrected, said timetable to be presented to the Board on December 3, 1984.
