determination on the amish in levels that were obtained and basically list as far as mercury is concerned they were similar to what the emissions were and they would line cemetery nine hundred foot setback from any existing dwellings so it is a feasible option of conservation to consider something of that sort in addition to or and complete replacement of one of things that that it would be my recommendation that if we were to adopt an ordinance or look to adopt an ordinance that that council employer and i think that we if we move forward i think we need to look at both of those owning side of it as well as the air quality side i'm concerned not only with whatever the pollutant emissions may be but the hot air pollution in general activity to me is something that should be significantly removed from residential areas and into do that the setback requirements are part of the zoning requirements so i think we need to look at both of those the concerns and i guess bill with asking the one that offer some advice unintended consequences and you know i don't know whether somebody could come back and say why are you picking on my industry when that there are greater emissions from other places so i mean i don't know what the answer is to a putting it so many  are these things in fact monitor of all that's ordered there's i mean there's a lot of questions you know they don't wish but from from my perspective you know yes we want to move forward yes we want to take the best of of the you create a specifically unused land it's possible to create setbacks like specific don't zoning districts and the air mission ordinance would be a separate ordinance in our code book as a chapter for that  said i think that we need to answer me take a look at this but i think that we need to broaden the the base of what it addresses i mean i don't think it should be limited to  types of business i think any kind of you know want to regulate somebody you know potbelly stove at home but you know i think that you know anything you go on as industrial you sound properties are you taking comments on your proposal that you just mentioned or are now well you can comment on a bit you know where we stand in the process and it was you know we don't want to rehash this it's not about material on that subject no it's a point where i would at the crematory and is a knee jerk reaction and is an attempt to try to keep the crematory out of the township we believe that it is complicated by the fact that we are in active litigation and if you do intend zoned that is a problem not illegal spots owning and we intend to fight that and we will challenge it if necessary we also intend to fight any potential air monitoring ordinance and believe that if you do  on the record and i think that by by considering that you know your continuing to ignore the credible scientific evidence and again substituting your own judgment for the governmental agencies that are tasked with oversight and regulation of this industry  what's unclear to us is what basis you have for doing this then the fear speculation and some on supported internet articles to justify enacting an air quality ordinance based on one that was enacted simply to point and i think it's important to note that just because that word meant has never been challenged doesn't mean it's not valid doesn't mean that it is valid it was the fact that it was never subject a judicial challenge does not mean it was a properly enacted invalid ordinance what is the health safety and welfare basis for this what scientific evidence is it based on what consultant studies do you have i mean obviously you're looking at getting  n what risk is there or what what is the effect on the other business owners or potential business owners to enact an ordinance that will add significant cost and expense or deter businesses from locating here if you look at the c on ordinance it actually requires the burden of all of the monitoring and the cost on the business owners i think it is really key that you look at other businesses that may be potentially affected by this and consider what is what other businesses might be affected and the cost to those businesses and we're not talking something that that's you know not that there's a lot of cost involved here and i also think it's important for the people in the audience to understand that based on a call on ordinance that does not require a scrubber to be put on the crematory stack i think there's really some knowledge than some information out there to the contrary to me when i read that ordinance it's based on monitoring of potential emissions and again i think we've already shown based on the other testimony that if you should you monitor crematories they will meet and exceed any kind of emission standards that would be set by this ordinance and that are in place right now by the e p so we appreciate your time and consideration of your comments and really hope that you look at the bigger picture here and consider the effect on other businesses and  try to target one business and this is going to be a lot of time and effort and money to the township and the residents of the township to enact an ordinance that's aimed at keeping one business out and we ask that you that you take that into consideration when you're looking at  my name's sam has zero three zero four buffalo ridge road president and hidden valley homeowners association actually i'd like to thank counsel for taking his first step in trying to regulate the air quality in peter's towns p this is something that the federal and state government of given local municipal or local municipalities carte blanche to do on and and if in fact the the emissions will cease then then there actually should be no objection to turn air quality ordinance going into place so i actually want to thank you i think it's a great first step in having the township and a proposed business be able to work together in the township there were two aspects i wanted to bring up about the the proposed and i and i understand first step in this whole process mr curry actually hit on both of them  first when i was on our levels of other missions the way that the ordnance reads is that once the mercury level reaches eighty five percent of the of the allowed amount that the engineering that's overseeing it has to notify the owner and the the township of this and that's just for mercury if it could be for for other regulated emissions also that would that would encompass much more and be much more protective  the second is the the civil and the criminal penalties that have to do with that with the violations i think are wonderful kids to have been there three times  i believe that the setback that is actually written into the cult mind ordinances nine hundred feet from the emission source to the to the closest residence i think we can all agree that that is not a setback that is there for the best of circumstances that setback is therefore the worst of circumstances which is what ordinances should be designed to do which is to logistically protect people around for when something goes wrong ordinances should be based on what's the worst that could happen and there is no in the in the in the west reading ordinance which is what the idea out there is excuse me is patterned after there is no we just to go safeguard  the proximity stipulation for if something should go around and that's something that i know when i collected almost eight hundred signatures and came to about the common ordinance and just reviewing it to look at that something  a paramount to the residents concerned which is some kind of setback where as if something does go wrong and i bet it will be in compliance but on that one day when it's not or something goes wrong that there is a logistical protectorate there and not just a civil penalty so i think it's a great first step i appreciate you looking into it being proactive i appreciate mr sylvestris efforts on it and your directed him thanks for your time  were i think we all know me from the prior proceeding i just would like comment briefly on miss robarts comments and summarize what i understand be the current situation township place as i understand the current legal there is the obvious potential for harm from the substance of his manifest and your powers are not circumscribed by statute you're allowed to be stricter than state pennsylvania by statute you're allowed to be stricter than the federal government now his business about being a compliant if you remember the history of what the d p regulates what these things it's basically fall for dioxide and particularly mission that's it they don't regulate that auctions they don't regulate they don't regulate night or socks or any of the things that you've heard of other stuff because diminish and value i suggest in addition to the things that you've already indicated which i think are wise steps to take to get the expertise you need to g simply there's other things that you can do to regulate this business that they want to now stablish in this township which you have the power to regulate you heard for example some of the causes of these dioxin ference and you heard practices in addition to the kinds of things that they're thinking about now they're all within your power to do so there are a lot of people that are willing to help in any way we can constructively to pass an ordinance that is critical i think to maintain the lifestyle  just wanted to tell you thank you for as a resident not providing too many facts if except for a heartfelt thanks this evening for looking at this issue i am one of a community of many mothers of small children who are taking lots of efforts to do many things across our environment and across one of our households to limit in general toxins and keep environments clean and you can see the effect that's having  supporting businesses in our community we have natural food stores doubling in growing in size we have right by nature looking at the ethan allen site they still are i'm not sure if trader joe's coming in these are all businesses and i don't have any notes that make one can intending on speaking but these are all businesses that are supporting what you're doing they're looking at keeping a whole any toxins and these types of things out of our food out of our environment so that they can take thank you for your efforts and thank you for what you're doing and thank you for listening to this the distance of your township thank you very much this sort of business is unfinished business michael a set back of the property line as shown on the drawing because they're not they're not survey to give you a better feel to look at the map that's on the wall the yellow line with more approximately of the bottom line is what realistically can we actually did realistically think we can realistically tell this guy or force them to tear all that concrete  actually the people on the set again if you went and looked at this property and looked at the way it was rated you would assume visually that the yard goes to here and then it falls be correct and then for whatever reason at some later time the pool shows up in another place and i'm wondering you know how all of that happened well i don't good other said when they provided they are relying upon the representation that there is a dedicated open space room and a day choir vested right with respect to that and then to sell it out  evening's play room bills there's a three hundred ninety seven thousand dollar bond repayment there is thirty four thousand dollars for a first shipment of salt there's a fire truck payment for almost eighty seven thousand dollars  final payment on resurfacing for fifty seven thousand so those are some pretty large items but everything's in order and i move that we approve them for payment in the second  modules the letter itself is somewhat contradictory in numerous places are saying that they don't have an overly hydraulically organically but then are saying because i don't believe it and if you're just extorting us because what actually does for a proposed pipeline you know we've discussed this before that there's is an organization looking to try to get a pipeline established to connect various chesapeake draw so as you can see pipelines we would deal with this as a use not provided for i think that we probably need to be looking at some type of regulations  and not disagreeing with them i just i'm just saying i think we need to we need to put that together expeditiously but i don't know man just suggesting that we want to think about using the period amendment on this particular issue because there are probably some board and we did get a one one applicant for the cable t v board anybody apply for those positions well we have one that applied for a cable t v board at this point i don't know who's going to be applying because we don't have the ad has it come out on a magazine where we wait to see you know if nobody appl adopted in conference and as a two month version i believe that it's the penalty is only you know you don't get any funding which is a significant going but is doesn't prohibit for others i just
