En poino t Solutions <br /> ZONING AND SETBACKS <br /> The existing property is zoned Al-EX: Exclusive Agricultural District.According to the Dane County <br /> Zoning Ordinance,limited ready mix production is a permitted use with an approved Conditional <br /> Use Permit. <br /> Ramsey Pit, LLC will operate or contract operation a portable RMC plant within the operative area <br /> of the quarry as identified in Figure 1.This operative area was found to meet all setback <br /> requirements (i.e. 30 feet from any town road and 10 feet from side and rear property lines) for a <br /> structure from neighboring properties as required for Al-EX front,side,and rear setbacks. <br /> The RMC batch plant will have a maximum height of approximately 50 feet above grade.However, <br /> the quarry floor is approximately 15 to 20 feet below grade and there is an existing 15 to 20 foot <br /> berm surrounding the quarry. Therefore,only 10-20 feet of the batch plant would be visible from <br /> the surrounding area. <br /> EROSION CONTROL/STORMWATER MANAGEMENT <br /> The proposed scope of work for the RMC plant installation is not expected to significantly disturb <br /> any additional land or existing grades beyond the existing quarry activities. At present,the entirety <br /> of the Site drains internally and this determination has received a Department of Natural Resources <br /> concurrence which will be updated and maintained appropriately. <br /> LIGHTING <br /> If operations occur at night,outdoor lighting will be provided by portable lighting for the purpose <br /> of employee visibility and safety. The lights would be operated only during periods of night-time <br /> operation as needed for visibility and safety. To mitigate impacts to neighboring residences and <br /> roadways,the lights will be directed away from property lines,neighboring parcels,and roads. <br /> Additionally,lighting equipment will be situated so that the surrounding berm and quarry side <br /> walls block as much light as possible from leaving the Site. <br /> STANDARDS OF CONDITIONAL USE <br /> Per the Conditional Use Permit requirements, an explanation outlining how the proposed land use <br /> meets each of the following six(6) standards for Conditional Use is included in the following <br /> sections. <br /> 1. THE ESTABLISHMENT, MAINTENANCE OR OPERATION OF THE CONDITIONAL USE WILL NOT BE DETRIMENTAL <br /> TO OR ENDANGER THE PUBLIC HEALTH,SAFETY,COMFORT OR GENERAL WELFARE. <br /> The proposed concrete mix plant operations will have minimal impact to the public. All <br /> ingredients,with the exception of cement,are already handled onsite and distributed offsite via <br /> truck.With the RMC plant,some product that had left the site as raw aggregate will now be utilized <br /> in the production of ready mix; reducing the potential impact from truck traffic.All activities are <br /> proposed to take place within the existing operative quarry area and are not expected to <br /> significantly impact traffic levels,dust levels,or noise beyond the property line. <br /> Ramsey Pit,LLC-Conditional Use Permit October 19,2016 <br /> Endpoint Project:393-002-001 Page 3 of 5 <br />
