REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
.On May 20, 1986, the Board of Supervisors approved a set of policy statements recommended
by the Solid Waste Commission. On July 29, 1986, the Board approved a second set of policy
statements. The Solid Waste Commission has determined that an additional policy statement
should be added to those previously approved by the Board. At the July 16, 1986 meeting of
the Commission, the Commission discussed land use permits which are required for new solid
waste facilities . Since land use permits are usually not subject to periodic review, it is
important that the conditions placed in the permit cover all potential future events. The
Commission felt that solid waste facilities (landfill , transfer stations , -and waste to
energy projects) could have impacts that may not have been taken into account initially but
could be significant in the future. Since solid waste facilities have the potential of
affecting adjacent land uses, the Commission felt it is appropriate that certain conditions
in a land use permit be subject to periodic review. The. specific conditions subject to
review should be identified in initial granting of the permit. The Commission does not
intend that the complete land use permit itself be subject to review, only certain specified
conditions.
The Commission recommends that the following policy statement be added to those previously
adopted by the Board:

Page 2
"Land use permits for solid waste disposal facilities should be subject to regular
periodic review every three years to determine if any modifications to specified
conditions need to be made. This will help insure that. the facility is operated in an
environmentally sound manner consistent with the best technology available of the
industry and will remain compatible with adjacent land uses."
This condition was unanimously approved by Commission members present.
