JOHN WARD: I think a special meeting would be needed, not just because these things are taken care of Co the staff's satisfaction. We have on the record . an objection with civil allegations in it that I feel need to be examined more thoroughly. One of them is whether or not that pit has been operating in violation of a cease and desist. If that is true, by the law we cannot issue a permit, if a violation of that cease and desist order is in fact existing. We don't know, we see the pictures, we don't have the photographer here. WAYNE SMITH; You are going to consider that, but if you read your own rules, those objections should come within 20 days of the final publication and the operators should receive a copy within ten days of the date that it is received. I got a copy 20 minutes ago. (inaudible, several voices.) JOHN WARD: Make the objections available. DAVE SHELTON: Which is all the more reason why we need the special meeting. JOHN WARD: We have to make those findings. SHERMAN BLACH: So you have asked for a continuance. DICK WARD: Mr. Chairman, I would move that at the request of the operator, Weld County, File No. 80-149 be continued until the next meeting or if required that the Board make effort to provide a special meeting if needed. DAVE SHELTON: The objectors will be notified , SHERNAN RLACH: Second. JOHN WARD: I think we should ask Lew how we are going treat, if these objections are did not follow the process of timely file. LARRY BROWN: They may not be objections, I don't know whether they are objections to the operation or if they are allegations of a violation and they can come fn at auy time. Herc is one question I would like Brad to pursue while he is processing, this is discussion on the motion, this application, please determine for yourself make a recommendation to us about the possibility of permitting an operation that is going to create harm to an adjacent property owner. We cannot do that. If the end result of this gravel pit is a probable course change in the river that is going to wash away somebody else's land, we cannot permit the operation. BRAD JAMES: I've been working on that. LARRY BROWN: Do you Have an opinion on that? BRAD JAMES: Yes, there is a problem. LARRY BROWN: Ok, I will, certainly want that if I am at that meeting. JOHN WARD: Call for the Vote. All in favor signify by raising your hand. Motion carries unanimously.
