During the winter and <br /> spring of 1991 -92 , the Landfill Owners ' Group developed a <br /> scope of work for a series of studies intended to lead to <br /> the creation of an integrated plan for solid waste <br /> management . The scope of work was forwarded to the three <br /> Governing Bodies , who made changes to the document and <br /> returned it to the Landfill Owners ' Group for additional <br /> work . A public input meeting was also held, at which time <br /> citizens ' comments on the proposed action plan were <br /> received by the Landfill Owners ' Group. In the summer and <br /> fall of 1992 , the three Governing Bodies began discussions <br /> about solid waste management goals and objectives , which <br /> resulted in the three Boards producing respective sets of <br /> goals . In light of ' discussions about goals and objectives <br /> and followup work by the Landfill Owners ' Group and staff <br /> revealed the need for revisions in the scope of work. The <br /> attached draft of the scope of work reflects those <br /> revisions . <br /> RECOMMENDATION: The Manager recommends that the Board of Commissioners <br /> consider the proposed scope of work and process for <br /> development of an integrated Solid Waste Management <br /> Plan and provide feedback. <br />
