not interested in excavation work for profit. Some of the soil removed would be used for the farm. In order to get the fish ponds functioning, some of the soil would have to be sold. Comm. Rojas asked about a guarantee for the completion of the fish pond project. Mr. Hooper said they would like to have phasing for the development. He commented about the possibility of bonding. Director Davisson noted that there were no bonding requirements in the staff report because the conditions do not allow removal of land from the site. PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED Chief Deputy County Counsel Mike McGrew said that this project has been approved and the applicant is appealing the conditions. If the Commission is going to permit the removal of soil from the site, there will have to be a determination on site protection. Comm. Morri said he felt that this is a quarry operation; that the soil should not be removed from the property; and the soil that had been removed should be brought back. Chair Carter said that land owners should be good stewards of the land. Comm. Rojas said that the applicant, as a farmer, should have noted prior to buying the parcel that the sand would be a deterrent to farming. He objected to the removal of the dirt. Comm. Jungeblut said that the history of the Dry Creek river bottom is that of flooding and depositing of debris. He said he felt this was a quarry excavation to remove dirt from the property. He did not feel that a fish farm for black bass would be feasible here.
