said he thought that was a question that should be asked. He
thought probably most oil distributors do not own property within
the county suitable for landfarming. He thought if this ordinance
was passed, then some other distributor who does not have land
might question the fairness of the plan.
Commissioner Hamby said she thought the ordinance amendment is
good because it required the person doing the landfarming to own
the property, which she thought was better than landfarming on
leased land.
Mr. Lundy pointed out that the bulk of the landfarming that
has been done in the past has not been oil jobbers.
MOTION in form of a resolution from Commissioner Boone to
delay the adoption of this amendment at the present time.
In discussion of the motion Commissioner Boone said he was not
putting this off on the Hazardous Waste Committee to decide, but if
they wanted to take a look at it, it might be a good idea. The
board members discussed the next meeting date of the Hazardous
Waste Committee.

NO WARE SONES ON LARK NORMANs Mr. Lundy said his office has
received a request from Turnpike Properties, Inc., wishing to
establish a No Wake zone near their development on Lake Norman,
which is known as Windemere (formerly the Heronwood project). In
doing research on No Wake zones, Mr. Lundy said it is a fairly
complex process to go through to achieve an actual No Wake zone
that is enforceable by law. The first thing that has to be done is
the county commissioners have to send a request to the N. C.
Wildlife Commission in the form of a resolution. There will be
cost incurred in establishing this No Wake zone because a public
hearing must be held. He asked the board if they wanted to get
into the business of requesting the Wildlife Commission to have a
No Wake zones. Mr. Lundy feels this will be the first of many
requests. Secondly, do you want to pass the cost of advertising
and holding the public hearings onto whoever is having them? He
asked for the board's direction in this matter.
Chairman Haire said she agreed the board would be setting a
precedent. Commissioner Hamby inquired who would enforce the No
Wake zones. Mr: Lundy said it would be the Wildlife's
responsibility to enforce the No Wake zones. Commissioner Stewart
inquired if they had the manpower to enforce it. Mr. Pope said the
Sheriff's Department's lake patrol could also enforce wildlife
laws.
Mr. Lundy discussed who would be in charge of servicing and
maintaining the buoys once they are installed.
MOTION from Commissioner Stewart to have Mr. Lundy and Mr.
Pope to do research in this area and bring it back to the board at
the mid-September meeting. (September 20, 1994.)
