WHEREAS, the Landfill Owners Group has adopted a schedule for development of the
integrated solid waste plan that includes a public hearing on the plan, and

that each local government hold an advertised public meeting as a minimum requirement
for public participation in development of the required solid waste plan, and
WHEREAS,the Landfill Owners Group believes that a single public hearing at which all
elected members of all governments of the owners group are present could be more
effective in communicating citizens' requests than a series of separate proceedings by
each government, and

to the elements of the integrated solid waste plan,
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Landfill Owners Group will hold a
public hearing on May 22, 1997 at 7:00 p.m. on the integrated solid waste management
plan.

integrated solid waste management plan for May 22, 1997, at the same time and location
as the above-scheduled meeting. The joint public hearing would meet the North Carolina
statutory requirements for development of a solid waste plan.
