Mayor Fred Wuerth, at
Wednesdays's meeting said.
A zoning bylaw amendment was
needed to build on the buffer zone,
and the MOE neededreasurrances
that there was not chance that
tuidergrotmd poisonous gasses from
the chimp could leak into the
building.
Methane gas Can be produced
underground when mixed wastes
are buried, sealed off from oxygen,
and the organic• matter
decomposes.
Wuerth aid there will be a plastic
membrane underneath the building
to block gas that maycome- p,
and the building will be constantly
monitored.
