AB56-ASA1,760k 9Section 760k. 59.69 (10) (ab) 1m. of the statutes is created to read:
AB56-ASA1,366,2010 59.69 (10) (ab) 1m. “Contiguous parcel” means any parcel of land, up to a
11cumulative limit of 80 acres, that, as of January 1, 2001, is contiguous to and is
12located in the same political subdivision as land on which a quarry existed lawfully
13before the quarry became a nonconforming use, is under the common ownership,
14leasehold, or control of the person who owns, leases, or controls the land on which the
15quarry is located, and is shown to have been intended for quarry operations prior to
16the effective date of the ordinance that rendered the use nonconforming. For
17purposes of this subdivision, if the contiguous parcel of land was commonly owned,
18leased, or controlled on January 1, 2001, there is a presumption that the contiguous
19parcel of land was intended for quarry operations prior to the effective date of the
20ordinance that rendered the use nonconforming.
AB56-ASA1,760p 21Section 760p. 59.69 (10) (ab) 2. of the statutes is created to read:
AB56-ASA1,367,622 59.69 (10) (ab) 2. “Nonconforming quarry site” means land on which a quarry
23existed lawfully before the quarry became a nonconforming use, including any
24contiguous parcel. The nonconforming status of any contiguous parcel shall be
25subject to the requirement that, on a 5 year rolling average, 75 percent of the quarry

1materials extracted from the contiguous parcel shall be used for
2infrastructure-related projects, as determined by the quarry operator. If this 75
3percent requirement is not met as to any contiguous parcel, the nonconforming
4status of the contiguous parcel may be suspended. This definition does not preclude
5a determination that a particular parcel of land is nonconforming under subd. 3. or
6common law.
