A RESOLUTION of the City of Port Angeles
adopting the Clallam County Solid Waste
Management Plan Update.
e
WHEREAS, the Clallam County Comprehensive Solid Waste
Plan Update, which was formally presented to the City Council on
November 6, 1984, contains elements that are important to the
City's Solid Waste Management programs and updates the 1978 Solid
Waste Management Plan; and
WHEREAS, the Clallam County Comprehensive Solid Waste
plan Update was prepared in accordance with Chapter 70.95 RCW,
which requires that the City either adopt the County-wide plan or
develop its own plan, which must be approved by the Department of
Ecology, and maintain a periodic review at least every five
years; and
WHEREAS, any implementation of the significant recom-
mendations of the Plan would be preceded by an analysis and
presented to Council for considerationj and
WHEREAS, one particularly significant recommendation of
the Plan is the concept of using the Port Angeles Landfill as the
sole County landfill, which concept raises concerns of the City
Council with regard to whether or not the City Landfill has
adequate capacity to address the needs of the entire Countyj
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF
e
THE CITY OF PORT ANGELES, WASHINGTON, as follows:
Section 1. The City Council hereby adopts the Clallam
County Comprehensive Solid Waste Plan Update.
Section 2. Clallam County shall pursue alternatives to
the recommendation that the Port Angeles Landfill become the sole

-1-
years or prior to the closure of the Lake Creek Landfill, which-
ever is sooner.
Section 3. The City Council hereby reserves the right
e
to rescind its adoption of the Clallam County Comprehensive Solid
