City_of_Madison_+_Dane_County_-_Adoption_of_Covenants,_Conditions_and_Restrictions.pdf

This document is a Dane County Sustainable Business Park Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions between Dane County and the City of Madison, Wisconsin, concerning the development of a Sustainable Business Park located on a portion of the Yahara Hills Golf Course. The project involves creating a 232-acre Sustainability Campus with the intent to develop a future landfill, compost site, and business park that promotes waste diversion, reuse, recycling, and circular economy principles. The declaration establishes a Project Review Board to oversee and approve projects within the park, with a focus on entities that divert materials from waste streams, implement alternative waste management processes, utilize campus resources, offer services to extend material life, research new waste technologies, and provide education about sustainability.

The document outlines permitted uses for the Sustainable Business Park, which include materials recovery facilities, recycling operations, waste collection and sorting, emerging recycling technologies, wood processing, food recovery, repair shops, tool sharing programs, research institutions, and educational organizations. The park aims to advance local circular economy goals by creating opportunities for businesses and organizations that focus on waste reduction, material reuse, renewable energy production, and sustainability education. The declaration sets development and operational standards, requires compliance with building codes and zoning requirements, and establishes a governance structure through the Project Review Board to ensure projects align with the site's sustainability objectives.
