In Alameda <br /> County, approval by 8 or more of the 14 cities, with a combined population of <br /> at least 549t199, is needed to adopt the Plan. <br /> <br /> To date, nine cities with a combined population of 501,834 (45.7%) have adopted <br /> the Plan with the amended language recommended by Hayward Manager Don Blubaugh. <br /> Four other cities (Albany, Dublin, Fremont and Pleasanton) with a population of <br /> 240,346 (21.9%), adopted the Plan with the original July 29 language. The City <br /> of Oakland, with a population of 356,217 (32.4%), rejected the Plan due to in- <br /> sufficient time for review. Oakland intends to review the Plan within 60 days. <br /> <br /> At the October 28 meeting, the Authority' voted unanimously to approve the <br /> language recommended by the Hayward City Manager and to resubmit the Plan to <br /> cities that have not yet adopted the new language. Attached is a sample of <br /> the proposed language. The intent of the original and revised language is to <br /> indicate the Authority policy to maintain at least 50 years permitted landfill <br /> capacity for Alameda County waste on a continuous basis. Each proposal to <br /> import waste for disposal in an Alameda County landfill would need to assure <br /> in-place mitigation before any importation could begin. <br /> <br /> The Plan will be transmitted to the California Waste Management Board when the <br /> necessary population requirement for approval is met. The position of any city <br /> acting afterwards will also be transmitted to the State. <br /> <br /> The Authority urges your city to consider and approve the revised Plan <br /> language as soon a possible at a public meeting. If you have any questions or <br /> comments on this, please contact Bill Fraley at this office. <br /> <br /> 0198d <br /> <br /> l <br /> ' <br /> <br /> RECEIVED <br /> <br /> <br />
