We were also advised that a meeting has been held with the
operators of the current landfills. Staff reported that the
operators are extremely reluctant to make voluntary donations to
support the public education program. As a result, we are asking
that the County turn to the sanitation and sanitary districts
asking for a loan of sufficient funds to implement this program.
These funds would be repaid with interest once a new landfill is
sited and opened.
