Refuse disposal sites should be located in accordance with a County-wide disposal plan on population and land use forecasting. Preferably, a single, centrally-located, County Incinerator should be constructed and all other dumps and sanitary landfill operations discontinued. This method is working in several nearby counties. However, until such an incinerator is approved, additional sanitary and landfill operations may be allowed in "A" and "I-2" Districts.
(a) Application, Review, and Permit Renewal Procedure. Applications for a sanitary landfill permit shall be filed with the Zoning Inspector by the owners and lease holders, if any, of the proposed site. Two copies shall be submitted and shall be accompanied by a fee as established by ordinance of Council. A permit for the landfill shall be issued for a one year period by the Board of Zoning Appeals. Unless the owner of the petition ignores and/or violates the conditions of the permit, it will be renewed automatically for one year periods. Applications for sanitary landfill permits shall include the following:
The location of the proposed landfill, on a map (1"=100') drawn by a registered engineer or land surveyor that shows the following:
(1) The location of all property lines bordering the proposed landfill site.
(2) The location and use of each structure within 300 feet of the proposed landfill site.
(3) The location of all underground public and private utility or drainage lines or facilities within 100 feet of the proposed landfill site.
(4) The location of all public easements and right-of-ways within 300 feet of the proposed landfill site.
(5) The location, size, and population served by other sanitary landfill sites in and adjacent to the Village of Enon. A standard of approximately four acres of sanitary landfill per 10,000 population served shall be used.
(6) Soil borings (1 per acre) of the proposed landfill site.
(7) Method of rehabilitation and reclamation of the landfill site, including a grading plan showing existing contours of the site and the proposed future contours showing the topography of the area after completion. Such plan shall include the surrounding area within 500 feet of the landfill property line, drawn with contour lines at intervals of five feet or less.
(b) Required Conditions.
(1) No landfill shall be located within 200 feet of any "R" Residential District.
(3) Other fire, safety, and health standards shall be reviewed and a determination made that, as set forth in the landfill permit or as a condition to its approval, adequate precautions have been provided. Such conditions may control the hours of operation, the location and intensity of electric lights, the location of structures on the site, the protection of the site from the public view, and any other reasonable standards related to the protection of the public health, safety or general welfare.
(4) All equipment and machinery shall be operated and maintained in such manner as to minimize dust, noise, and vibration. Access roads shall be maintained in a dust-free condition by surfacing or other treatment as may be specified by the Board.
