RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Authorize the District V Supervisor to take specific action, as follows, with regard to the Keller
Canyon Landfill Mitigation funding process for the current fiscal year.
1) Authorize the District V Supervisor to appoint an Interim Review Committee, comprised of
County staff, to review funding allocations and make recommendations on Keller Mitigation
funds for Fiscal Year 1998/99.
2) Direct the County Administrator's Office to develop an estimate of funds available for
allocation based on the current reduction of tonnage, taking into account the diversion of
materials from the Keller Landfill for a period of up to six months and disposal of those
materials at other landfill sites.
3) Direct the Interim Review Committee to review the fiscal estimate and provide funding
recommendations for the first six months of the Fiscal Year 98/99. Further, direct the Interim
Review Committee to review these allocations in January 1999 to determine funding for the
balance of Fiscal Year 1998/1999.
4) Direct the District V Supervisor, in conjunction with Community Development staff, to
commence recruiting for permanent members of the Community Advisory Panel during the
first quarter of 1999.' This will allow the full panel to be appointed and in place prior to April
1999 when the funding process will commence for Fiscal Year 1999/2000.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
On April 28, 1998 the Finance Committee recommended, and the Board of Supervisors
adopted, changes to the policies and procedures for the allocation of 1998/1999 Keller Canyon
Mitigation funds. Included in these approved changes was the formation of a,Community Advisory
Panel to act as a preliminary review body for all grant applications.

Keller Landfill Mitigation Funds
Page Two
Sime the adoption of these changes, operators of the Keller Canyon Landfill have advised the
County that landslides experienced at the landfill have caused them to divert half of the material
normally received at Keller. The diversion of these materials commenced in June 1998, and may
continue to be diverted for a period of up to six months. The diversion of these materials will have a
significant impact on the projected Keller Canyon Mitigation revenues available for Fiscal Year
1998/99.
Given the fact that the current fiscal year has already commenced, and the uncertainty of
funding levels for the current fiscal year based on the projected diversions, it is recommended that an
interim process be implemented that will allow for the allocation of funds at the earliest opportunity
and provide for a subsequent review at a six month interval. Recruitment of a Community Advisory
Panel is estimated to take a minimum of two months (from advertising to appointment), and following
appointment, a two month process (at a minimum)to bring funding allocations to the Board. Staff
believes that this will create an unnecessary delay in the allocation of funding for the current fiscal
year. For this reason, an Interim Review Committee has been proposed.
