2 <br /> r <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> TO: Carrboro Board of Aldermen <br /> Chapel Hill Town Council <br /> Hillsborough Board of Commissioners <br /> Orange County Board of Commissioners <br /> FROM: W. Calvin •Horton, Chapel Hill Town Manager <br /> John Link, Orange County Manager <br /> Robert Morgan, Carrboro Town Manager <br /> Eric Swanson, Hillsborough Town Manager <br /> SUBJECT: Procedures for Selection and Approval of the Siting of <br /> the next Orange County Landfill <br /> DATE: April 15, 1996 <br /> The attorneys for the four local governments involved in the <br /> selection of the landfill have prepared the attached memorandum at <br /> our request . The memorandum explains various further legal steps <br /> which are necessary for the siting of a landfill and provides an <br /> estimate of the time required for• these steps. <br /> We hope this information is of assistance as the local governmental <br /> elected officials continue to consider the selection of a site for <br /> a landfill . <br /> Part of the attorneys' recommendation is for a joint public hearing <br /> this spring to comply with a requirement in state law. We <br /> recommend that when the Boards gather on April 18 for the joint <br /> public forum they attempt to identify a date for such a hearing. <br /> We recommend the hearing be held on one of the following possible <br /> dates : June 13, 1996 (Thursday) ; or, June 19, 1996 (Wednesday) - <br /> Scheduling this hearing on one of these dates would allow the <br /> governing boards, if they deem it appropriate, to consider voting <br /> to select and approve a site this spring. <br />
