ALAMEDA COUNTY so.u, 399 Elmhurst Strut, Hayward, California ~ (~15) 670-5400 DATE: August 14, 1987 TO: Chairman and Board Members, Alameda County Board of Supervisors Mayors and Councilmembers, Cities of Alameda, Albany, Berkeley, Dublin, Emeryville, Fremont, Hayward, Livemore, Newark, Oakland, Piedmont, Pleasanton, San Leandro, and Union City Chairmen and Board Members, Castro Valley Sanitary District, Oro Loma Sanitary District, and Dublin-San Ramon Services District FROM: Kenneth Mercer~ Preside of the Alameda County Solid Waste ManaSs- SUBJECT: UNTY SOLI AGEMENT PLAN Enclosed is the Final Draft County Solid Waste Management Plan prepared by Black & Veatch, consultants. The Plan and CEQA Negative Declaration were approved by the full Authority on July 29. Changes to the Final Draft Plan made by the Authority at the July 29 meeting are included in an Addendum enclosed with the Plan. After approval by the Authority, state law provides 90 days for the cities to review the plan and either approve or disapprove. Failure to act within that period is deemed to be plan approval. The plan must be approved by a majority of the cities in the county containing a majority of the incorporated popula- tion, using State Department of Finance population figures (enclosed). As a practical matter, we believe that the plan must be adopted unanimously or nearly unanimously. As a courtesy, the plan is also submitted for review and approval to the County Board of Supervisors and the three special districts that are members of the Authority. The special districts are not included in the state formula. The Board of Supervisors have designated the Authority to be responsible for preparation of the plan. In the past, the Board of Supervisors and district boards have reviewed and approved the plan. After adoption by the cities, the plan is submitted to the California Waste Management Board for its approval. We have enclosed a summary of the major features of the Final Draft, focussing on differences between the current plan adopted in 1982 and the proposed Draft. If you have any questions on this matter, please contact Bill Fraley or Betty Croly at the County Planning Department at 670-5400. Authority staff will be available to attend council and board meetings to respond to questions on the plan. Please call Bill Fraley, Secretary to the Authority, if you would like a staff member to attend your meeting. 0166d
