Attachment B <br />October 19, 1995 <br />RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE LANDFILL OWNERS GROUP <br />recommend that the Landfill Owner's Group recommend that the <br />_ree governing bodies (Orange County, Chapel Hill and Carrboro) <br />;rchase the Neville tract under the following three conditions: <br />Establish a Monitoring Group to participate in the <br />environmental assessment and Special Use Permit (SUP) <br />application processes. The Monitoring Group should be <br />composed of the citizens who participated in the development <br />of these recommendations (representatives of the Nunn family, <br />representatives of the Northwest Chapel Hill Neighborhood <br />Association) at a minimum, plus other affected citizens as <br />needed, and technical resource people identified by the <br />citizens to assist them in understanding the technical <br />discussions and to supplement the expertise of the SUP <br />applicant's consultant. <br />2. Generate through the environmental assessment and special use <br />permit application process, with the continuing good faith <br />participation of the citizens and governments who participated <br />in the development of these recommendations, the information <br />and decisions needed to resolve the following 22 issues. The <br />group developing these recommendations believes that it <br />cannot resolve these 22 issues without further technical <br />information and informed discussions based on that <br />information. <br />3. The above- mentioned environmental assessment will be performed <br />in conjunction with development of the above- mentioned special <br />use permit and will include a description of the proposed <br />actions, identification of their potential environmental <br />impacts, strategies to minimize and mitigate potential impacts <br />on the environment and resources, and consideration of short - <br />term and long -te=m benefits and effects of the project. <br />We recommend that these three conditions be addressed prior to the <br />beginning of any operations on either the Greene or Neville tracts <br />for acquiring landfill daily cover. <br />We recommend that all of the conditions below be addressed and an <br />attempt made to resolve them by the three governing bodies within <br />the guidelines of this document. <br />We recognize that it will be easier to reach agreement on some <br />issues than on others, and so have separated these unresolved <br />issues into two groups to facilitate resolution: <br />"Easy Issues for onsensus" <br />1.
