Summary

City staff's proposal to amend the Planned Manufacturing (M-3R) district to add a clean-earth landfill as a permitted use with a special use permit was tabled after staff said the item did not receive a favorable planning commission recommendation and the city sought to wait for a full council.

Council considered bill number 6504, which would amend the Bridgeton Code of Ordinances to add “clean earth landfill” as a permitted use in the Planned Manufacturing (M-3R) district with approval by special use permit. Planning staff advised the council that the planning commission did not give a favorable recommendation on the change, and the city attorney and staff noted that the item would require six votes to pass because it did not receive a favorable planning commission recommendation.

Because city staff was the applicant, staff asked for the council to wait until a full council could consider the matter. Council members moved and seconded a motion to table bill 6504, and the motion to table passed. The item will return when a full council can take it up.

No substantive changes to the ordinance were adopted during the meeting; the council did not vote on the ordinance itself and took no action other than tabling the bill.
