adjacent properties and to establish and maintain safe operational and resultant stability of the <br />entire quarry site. What we at the Planning Department did, the Planning Director had sent a <br />letter to the applicant requesting that they hire a soils engineer to be able to submit a report with <br />this information to us so that we could prepare appropriate conditions for this. We had asked for <br />that report to be submitted prior to this date. Because we haven’t received it, we are asking for a <br />continuance of this matter. But we understand that the applicant and representatives are here <br />today. <br />WOODWARD: Very good. So the applicant, I guess, is asking for a continuance and <br />based on the fact that their submission is -. <br />LEITHEAD TODD: I don’t think the applicants are asking for the continuance. It was the <br />Department. Applicant has come and he has brought a soils engineer with him. <br />WOODWARD: Okay, very good. <br />LEITHEAD TODD: But they haven’t submitted a report. <br />WOODWARD: Okay. Well, we’ll certainly be willing to take testimony, although it’s <br />unlikely we’ll be able to make a decision. But if we could have the applicant and whoever <br />would like to speak come up to the table. And just so I don’t get ahead of myself, we have <br />nobody from the public signed up to testify. <br />Okay, gentlemen, if you’ll raise your right hand. Do you swear or affirm to tell the truth today <br />before the Windward Planning Commission? <br />CHAMBERLAIN: I do. <br />THOMAS: I do. <br />WOODWARD: Very good. All right. And then one at a time we’ll take it. Whoever <br />wants to go first, if you would just give us your name and address, and then you’re free to begin <br />your testimony. If you’ll speak into the microphone, sir. <br />CHAMBERLAIN: Yeah, Joe Chamberlain, 15666 Northeast Eilers Road, Aurora, Oregon, <br />97002. I -. <br />WOODWARD: If you would speak into the microphone, sir, since we’re recording. <br />CHAMBERLAIN: When I last met with the board then they did tell me to get a soils engineer <br />now. And I immediately started searching for one. Soils engineers are not plentiful supply <br />around. And right now we got Mr. Thomas to finally sign onto this, but he has been very, very <br />busy. We just got to the property and inspected it yesterday. And that is our reason, that his <br />schedule has been such and he wasn’t able to get the written report out. I would say you could <br />talk to him now, and he could give you a fairly good outline of where this thing is going. <br />1 <br />EXHIBIT C <br /> <br />
