IN RE: MORATORIUM ON SANITARY LANDFILL PERMITS
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS by Miscellaneous Resolution No. 88187, dated
July 14, 1988, the Oakland County Board of Commissioners awarded a
contract to the firm of Rogers, Golden and Halpern, Inc. (RGII) for the
siting of an environmentally sound sanitary landfill for a county-wide
solid waste disposal system, and
WHEREAS RGH has established a broadly diverse citizen
committee to review and recommend a sanitary landfill location predicated
upon selected criteria, and
WHEREAS the citizen committee, which first convened on
February 23, 1989, is deeply involved in the siting process and is
anticipated to make its final recommendation during the summer of 1989,
and
WHEREAS to ensure minimum adverse impact to the
environment, the establishment of any sanitary landfill and/or the
expansion of any such sanitary landfill should be held in abeyance until
the Oakland County Citizen Sanitary Landfill Siting Committee has
completed its study and recommendation.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County
Board of Commissioners does hereby strongly urge that the Michigan
Department of Natural Resources issue no additional sanitary landfill
permits within Oakland County until such time as the Oakland County
Citizen Landfill Siting Committee has made its recommendations to the
Board of Commissioners.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that certified copies of this
resolution be sent to the Governor, the Director of the Department of
Natural Resources and Oakland County's Legislators.
Mr. Chairperson, I move adoption of the foregoing resolution.
