Whereas significant changes to the Bensfort Road Landfill operation have taken place without prior involvement of the Waste Management Committee,

Therefore, be it resolved that a schedule of meetings be developed for 2013, which permits the Waste Management Committee to address its responsibilities in a timely fashion – such schedule to include, but not limited to, preparation of a draft annual work plan and annual budget, preparation and call for tenders for necessary services, administration of the Public Liaison Committee, and provision of on-going advice and recommendations in accordance with the approved Waste Management System Plan,

 

And further, that Staff provide the Waste Management Committee with a detailed analysis of the 2013 Bensfort Road Landfill budget, which has already been prepared without input from the Committee.
