-Separately, the time is now to form regional partnerships to explore long-term <br /> alternatives to land filling. We'd even suggest adding the this topic to the County's <br /> legislative agenda to encourage North Carolina to seek federal funding and incentives <br /> for new, renewable resources such as waste to energy. <br /> So to recap, as you listen to the County and Olver's reports, please consider these <br /> important questions: <br /> -What is the right size and features for our facility and if it's different than what was <br /> agreed with the community, what impact does that have on site selection process that <br /> may no longer be relevant. <br /> -What are the risks to wetlands and habitats, and safety? What is the likely impact on <br /> project schedules and costs to understand them and mitigate them? Is it worth the <br /> effort? <br /> -What is the cost and service impact of having the facility so far from the other solid <br /> waste operations? <br /> -How much will the County and the towns save if we move the facility close to town? <br /> We hope that after you hear the reports, ask questions, and deliberate, you will realize <br /> that a WTS in Bingham simply doesn't work. Rather than continue to waste more time and <br /> taxpayer money, please consider a motion to stop work on any sites in Bingham and start a <br /> search for a suitable site that is close to town. <br /> Please ask the tough questions tonight and place Orange County back on the path to <br /> responsible waste management. Thank you." <br /> Robert Campbell was from the Rogers-Eubanks Neighborhood Association and the <br /> Coalition to End Environmental Racism. He said that the residents of the Rogers-Eubanks <br /> community do not want a transfer station within the community. He said that the SWAB has <br /> recommended, via a resolution, a temporary transfer station on Rogers Road. He said that in his <br /> mind there is no such thing as a temporary transfer station. He said that the landfill was <br /> supposed to be temporary, but became permanent for 37 years. He said that if the County <br /> Commissioners will look at the impact of this in their community, they would not site a temporary <br /> site here. He said that today is about justice and the quality of life. <br /> Myra Dodson lives in Bingham Township and asked how much money has been paid to <br /> Olver to date. She asked about the fee for the project management contract. She said that <br /> there must be true transparency. <br /> Nancie McDermott said that she is here as a member of the Coalition to End <br /> Environmental Racism. She is also a member of the NAACP. She said that she has worked <br /> under Rev. Campbell and others from the Eubanks community. She said that she has watched a <br /> lot and has followed the official processes over the past 1-2 years. She said that all of the other <br /> entities have said no to this (Hillsborough and NC 54). Rogers-Eubanks have said no loudly, <br /> continually, and persistently for 37 years to a landfill. In all of that time, none of the Boards of <br /> County Commissioners ever listened to the "no's." Now, suddenly she hears that because the <br /> three groups that were sited at the top have said no, a contingency solution is to build a <br /> temporary waste transfer station in the Rogers Road community. This is shocking, outrageous, <br /> and unacceptable. She does not understand how the County can accept "no" from three groups <br /> that are new to the issue and Rogers-Eubanks Road can be ignored and trampled. She said that <br /> the notion of a transfer station in Rogers Road is wrong, absurd, unjust, etc. She asked the <br /> County Commissioners to vote to take Rogers Road off the table for good. <br />
