PURPOSE: To consider establishing a joint public hearing for May 22, 1997, on the integrated
solid waste management plan.
BACKGROUND: The Landfill Owners' Group has adopted a schedule for reviewing and
implementing an integrated solid waste management plan for Orange County and the Towns of
Carrboro, chapel Hill, and Hillsborough. All local governments are required by the State to have an
adopted solid waste plan in place by July 1, 1997.
On February 19, 1997, the LOG adopted a resolution requesting that each of the four governing
boards schedule a public hearing for 7:00pm on May 22, 1997 at Stanback Middle School. This
public hearing would meet the statutory requirements for a public hearing prior to adoption of local
solid waste management plans, and would afford citizens an opportunity to comment on the
integrated plan being developed jointly by the four local governments.
RECOMMENDATION(S): The manager recommends that the Board adopt the attached
resolution.
