Ann Siron From: Sent: To: Subject: Ann: Phillip Brewer Friday, August 21, 2009 3:43 PM Ann Siron 1707 E Holly Ave I did go out there about a week ago and gave to the brother of the owner of the land several open burning brochures and verbally told him about open burning regulations. He contacted his sister while I was visiting with him. I talked with his sister who owns the property (on the cell phone). She told me she is a county employee who works in the building just to the south of the health department. She is Elvira Gonzalez @ Ext. 3378. I got the impression that she was saying to me that since she is a county employee that I should "ease" up a bit! Nonetheless, I let her know the "rules" of open burning. I contacted the complainant (Clifford Clift) and asked that if other burning is conducted that he call "911" and have the fire extinguished. I also said that I will want to know about future open burns, as there will likely be no open burning permits issued for the items that are intended to be burned. If I can receive an invitation to a Planning Commission hearing dealing with the noncommercial junkyard and the trucking business without a USR I would be pleased. I will attend!
