Matters on the Printed Agenda <br /> (These matters will be considered when the Board addresses that item on the agenda <br /> below.) <br /> 3. Petitions by Board Members <br /> Commissioner Pelissier said she had asked earlier this year that the County Manager <br /> and Solid Waste Director meet with the Zero Waste folks. She would like a written report to be <br /> provided regarding the substance of this meeting. <br /> Chair Jacobs noted that there is a report at the end of the agenda regarding the issues <br /> at the Solid Waste Convenience Center (SWCC) at Walnut Grove. He said he would also like <br /> a report from the meeting between the Solid Waste staff and the small waste haulers. <br /> He asked for the addition of an agenda item for a future meeting with both of these <br /> reports on it. <br /> Chair Jacobs said the County used to put plaques in the lobbies of newly constructed <br /> buildings. He said the plaques stated the year the building was built, the names of the seated <br /> Board of County Commissioners, Managers, and the architects involved. He said, for the sake <br /> of posterity, it would be a nice to re-instate this practice as way to memorialize those who were <br /> involved. <br /> 4.
