With the facility of we think there is an advantage. AS we get closer I will xxi. How do we mitigate the overnight sound from Semi's? Distance is the best way to negate sound. There is fence and other sound barriers that could be used. Wouldn't be opposed to this if every other business would have to do the same thing. xxii. Would like to put the septic mound on the east side. If the septic doesn't get approve it's a no go. xxiii. Would like the group to consider for the city water to coming down is to put a loop in at the end of the line. The water engineer would know what that is. xxiv.
