10 This is the best location since its already in an area that is not being used for a <br />real purpose. Plus theres a freeway enterance right next to it and also its the <br />cheapest in the long run. <br />12 This site seems to have the least residences nearby/close. It is already right next <br />to an industrial area (cement plant). <br />13 I think this is the best site from both an economic impact and minimizes the <br />impact to adjacent areas. The airport is no easily accessed and is upwind from a <br />lot of residential properties and the Tjossem Road site is productive agricultural <br />land, visible from freeway and adjacent to residential housing. <br />14 Elevation and proximity to areas prone to flooding are an issue for this site, and <br />depth of groundwater is a likely problem. Consideration should be given to an <br />area outside the irrigation district for this reason. <br />15 Best option: Roads are already undergoing significant upgrades (that's paid for) <br />Access to the site does not tempt customers to cut through residential areas <br />It's the shortest distance to the freeway for heavy trucks. This is an industrial <br />area - perfect for this kind of use. <br />19 an ok site - not close to residential development <br />20 Best potential site with least impact to residential areas as well as agriculture, <br />including traffic. Site is adjoined by ECP with low risk of becoming residential, so <br />low risk of future odor and traffic complaints. Addition of the roundabout will <br />also assist with access to this site without other road improvements. <br />21 Not a good choice. All land on both sides of 97 west of the new Round-a-bout is <br />zoned by the city to be Commercial in various forms. The south-west side is <br />almost filled with commercial businesses. The north-east side is zoned <br />Commercial and the adjoining 56 acres to the north will undoubtedly be zoned <br />commercial at some point. At the very least, if commercial development does not <br />take place, you can bet that it will end up with a residential zoning. The transfer <br />station will cause debris and unpleasant smells to be present in this whole Hwy. <br />97 area. They are all down-wind from the proposed site. With the large amount <br />of traffic at the new round-a-bout which will grow with development, do we <br />need to add daily trips of garbage trucks through the round-a-bout and on out <br />97. The I-90 Interchange there is already very busy and will likely become the <br />busiest of the two Ellensburg Interchanges. The garbage trucks I see around <br />down daily are huge machines and often drive too fast for their size. They always <br />seem to be in a great hurry. I think the Transfer Station needs to be further away <br />from any possible future development in the City of Ellensburg. <br />ResponseID Response <br />4
