INTERIM EXPANSION OF LANDFILL OWNERS GROUP <br />John Link explained that the governing bodies established this <br />spring the Landfill Reorganization Working Group to consider and develop <br />recommendations on the best structure for intergovernmental cooperation in <br />the ownership and financing of the next landfill. Because of upcoming <br />issues that must be addressed, the LOG is asking each governing body to <br />consider an interim expansion of the current LOG with the understanding <br />that more fundamental and permanent changes will be made later. Each of <br />the owners would be represented by two or three elected officials. Each <br />owner would cast only one vote, but the additional members would help <br />expand their perspective and bring the governing bodies closer to the <br />development of final policy recommendations. <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Crowther, seconded by Chair <br />Carey to approve the interim expansion of the LOG as stated above and to <br />appoint Commissioners Halkiotis and Willhoit to serve on this expanded LOG <br />Committee . <br />VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br />D.
