end-use of the City-County 70 acre and 185 acre landfill parcels. Repre-

issues discussed to the Council. He mentioned that a policy statement
agreeable to both the City and County Planning Departments will be form-
ulated to better coordinate future planning and zoning efforts. Existing
zoning is now compatible with the end-uses discussed. The group agreed to
meet every six months in order to stay current on any emerging issues or
alternatives.
2. Report on Resource Recovery Phase II Report and Davis County Project
Romney reported that Will Jeffries had received the comments submitted by
the City and County, and has forwarded them to Franklin Associates for
inclusion in the final Phase II report. Romney mentioned that R. W. Beck
was doing the third party independent engineering analysis of the Davis
County Project.
Davis County has set February 28th as the date to sell the bonds, even
though the site has not yet been determined. Energy contracts with Hill
Air Force Base are expected to be completed and signed within a week.
Vice Chairman Talebreza recognized the arrival of Bill Jacobson and Tim
Bennett and invited any comments on the Fee Schedule. They did not see
any problems with fee as now proposed. Romney mentioned that the
arrangements made with the South Valley Treatment plant to handle septic
waste is working out satisfactorily for all parties concerned. Bill
Jacobson mentioned that the fee at the plant may be lowered which would
benefit the haulers.
Stan Vincent mentioned that the liquid handling problems are substantially
less now that septage is no longer brought to the landfill. Romney stated
that in his opinion the disposal fee will likely remain the same through-
out 1983. However, a review of the commercial fee will be made in July
after the first half expenditures of the new budget year are assessed.
The next meeting date was set for January 7, 1983, at 10:00 a.m., in the County
Commission Board Room. Meeting adjourned at 8:50 a.m.
