Hilton described his property owner- ship in this area and indicated the area of the site which has been pre vi ous 1 y filled. Counci 1 asked if the proposed aggregate stockpile will interfere with RCWD plans in this area. Nilton said he is aware of the RCWD plans; the stockpiling will not interfere; proposed s to ck- pile area is not in the drainage area. . Rudy explained th a t the aggregate is a recycled concrete product which will be stockpiled for future use for abase for roadways; feels the Milton property lends itself to th is type of storage area. Rudy said he checked the traffic coun t on Cleveland with Mr. Arcand, Ramsey County Engineer's office. Traffic c:oun t is low. Rudy said- they are reques ting two years; hope to remove in one year; th i rd year option is requested if it c.an f t be re nlove d in 2 yea rs . Rudy said the re is no supply of aggregate in this area of the ci ty at present.
