MATTERS INITIATED BY COUNCILMEMBERS Councilmember Wood stated he has received several telephone calls regarding excessive dust problems due to construction within the City. He asked what the City could do to control this problem. The City Attorney advised that the City has taken reasonable measures to control dust and will continue to do so. Councilmember Wood advised that ACTEB/ACAP has received approximately $353,000 for summer youth and out-of-school work programs for the summer. Councilmember Wood stated that the Alameda County Solid Waste Management Board has been discussing the possibility of solid waste being dumped at Vasco Road; and that since all other cities in Alameda County receive a surcharge from the Altamont Dump Site, he felt the cities of Pleasanton and Livermore should receive a surcharge from the Vasco Road Dump Site. It was moved by Councilmember Wood, and seconded by Councilmember Brandes, that the City Council of the City of Pleasanton go on record as being in favor of an amendment that would allow the cities of Pleasanton and Livermore to receive a surcharge from the Vasco Road dump site. Mavor Mercer stated that the Subcommittee of the Solid Waste Management Board, of which he is a member, has been meeting and will make a recommendation to the Solid Waste Management Board soon which in his opinion will solve this problem. He stated he felt this motion is premature and would be voting against it. He advised that Contra Costa County does not charge for Alameda County to dump at their sites and he did not feel it is fair for Pleasanton to place a surcharge on a Contra Costa site.

After further discussion, it was moved by Councilmember Wood, and seconded by Councilmember Monr, that the City Council of the City of Pleasanton go on record requesting the Alameda County Solid Waste Management Board to make an amendment to their plan that would allow the cities of Livermore and Pleasanton to receive the same type surcharge as the City of San Francisco pays to use the Altamont Dump Site.
