C. The Date, Place and Other Circumstances of the Occurrence or
Transaction which Gave Rise to the Claim Asserted.
As explained more fully below,WMI paid fees to the County of Contra Costa
pursuant to a condition of approval of the land use permit for the Marsh Canyon landfill, and
pursuant to a franchise agreement between Waste Management of California, Inc. and the
County. The court later held that the permit was void because the County had not fulfilled its
obligations under CEQA. The parties subsequently rescinded the franchise agreement. The
County is obligated to return the fees to WMI, with interest at the legal rate.
1. Resource Recovery Program Fee Condition.
The County approved a land use permit for Marsh Canyon on March 20, 1990.
Condition 36.4 provided:
Resource Recovery Program Fee. The Landfill developer or
operator shall pay to the County of Contra Costa a resource
recovery program fee of$200,000 annually, beginning April 1,
1990. The developer or operator shall deposit the monies in a
segregated account established by the County. The extent of the
CA933020.023
July 5, 1994
Page 3
fee shall be subject to reconsideration when a franchise agreement
is established for the Landfill. The resource recovery program fee
from its inception shall be a pass-through business cost for the
purposes of rate setting.
The purpose of this condition, according to Supervisor Torlakson when he introduced it, was to
lengthen the life of the landfill and manage its land use better by promoting more recycling.
In Sierra Club v. County of Contra Costa,the Superior Court declared the Marsh
Canyon land use permit void because of the County's failure to comply with CEQA. On
August 7, 1992, the court entered a judgment and issued its writ commanding the County to
vacate and set aside its decision of February 13, 1990 certifying the final EIR for Marsh Canyon,
and to vacate and set aside its decision of March 20, 1990 approving the Marsh Canyon landfill
use permit. This judgment became final when the Court of Appeals issued its remittitur on
July 7, 1993.
2. Franchise Agreement.
The conditions of approval of the land use permit are subordinate to the terms of
the franchise agreement between the County and WMI dated December 4, 1990. Under its
terms, the land use permit did not become operative until the Board approved the franchise
agreement. The Resource Recovery Program Fee was encompassed within the scope of the
franchise agreement. After lengthy litigation,the court found that the County had not complied
with CEQA and ordered it to vacate the land use permit. This judgment became final when the
parties settled and the County and WMI abandoned their appeals and rescinded the franchise
agreement.
D. General Description of the Indebtedness, Obligation, Injury
Damage or Loss.
The land use permit was judged void by the court. The land use permit is void
also because the parties rescinded the franchise agreement, and the land use permit is not
operative without the franchise agreement. The County is obligated to refund the fees because a
void permit cannot be given effect. Also, WMI is entitled to restitution of the fee because the
County and Waste Management rescinded the franchise agreement. Moreover, the purpose of
the Resource Recovery Program Fee cannot be accomplished, and the consideration for the
franchise agreement has failed. The County would be unjustly enriched were it to retain the fees.
From the filing of the proceeding entitled Sierra Club v. Contra Costa County, the
County was on notice that the land use permit was being challenged and that the petitioners were
seeking a determination that the permit was void and a writ commanding the County to set aside
its decision granting the permit. Condition 36.4 of the permit required the County to maintain
the fee payments in a segregated account. Accordingly, it is equitable for the County to return
the fee to WMI.
CA933020.023
July 5, 1994
Page 4
E. Names of the Public Employees Causing The Injury.
The employees responsible are those who performed and supervised preparation
and certification of the EIR for the Marsh Canyon Landfill, and those who authorized and acted
to rescind the franchise agreement. The CEQA documentation that the court held was
improperly performed was ultimately approved by the Board of Supervisors. Likewise,the
decision to rescind the franchise agreement was approved by the Board of Supervisors. The
number of other people involved is extensive, and the names are better known to the County than
to WMI.
F. Amount Claimed.
The amount claimed is $600,000. Jurisdiction will rest in the Superior Court.
