<br /> <br />t. <br /> <br />outsiders that New Brighton is really making the transition from <br />a "blue collar" image city to one that is a high-tech and <br />professional location for those businesses which the City hopes <br />to attract. <br /> <br />The Mass Burn Plant, by the very nature of its operations, will <br />include at least 40 to 50 garbage trucks a day hauling refuse <br />into the City on its main arterials and heavy trucks hauling the <br />solidified ash from the Plant out of the City to other locations. <br />Although I am concerned about the increased quantity of truck <br />traffic within the City itself, what really concerns me is the <br />TYPE of very heavy industrial traffic that will continue to <br />reinforce the industrial ima~e of New Brighton. It is very <br />difficult for us to sell the high qualities of our professional <br />location in New Brighton when 50 garbage and ash trucks pass by <br />our location each day. This fact will not be lost on real estate <br />developers around the Twin Cities who are looking for high-tech <br />locations. <br /> <br />I <br />My final concern rests on the possible pollution contamination <br />generated by the Mass Burn Plant. Althou~h not an expert on <br />pollution matters, I have to believe that there will be some <br />contaminates or noxious odors that could be generated by the <br />operation of the Plant. It is absolutely essential that a <br />very thorough study of possible contamination by the Plant <br />operations be thoroughly analyzed and investi~ated by not only <br />the City but its citizens to assure ourselves that we are not <br />creating a lon~ term pollution problem for our ourselves and <br />future ~enerations. I leave such analysis to those who are more <br />thorou~hly informed on this subject. <br /> <br />Again, I am sorry that I could not be present to deliver these <br />comments in person. I do, however. want to express my concerns <br />about City image problems, the lowering of property values, the <br />increased quantity and type of heavy traffic that will be <br />generated by the Plant, and the possible pollution contamination <br />that could be generated by the Plant in the future. As a result <br />of these major concerns. I would hope that the Planning <br />Commission will not approve the building of the Mass Burn Steam <br />Generation Plant within the city limits of New Brighton. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted. <br /> <br />~~~L <br />Edwin J2 7 <br /> <br />President <br /> <br />EJT:dme <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
