Lake County (the "County") entered into an Interlocal Cooperation

the Utah Code Annotated, regarding the joint management and
operation of a landfill (the "Landfill"). The Agreement
established the Solid Waste Management Council and provided it
with authority and responsibility relating to the operation and
management of the Landfill.
Pursuant to the Agreement, all actions by the Solid Waste
Management Council constitute recommendations to the City and the
County and that the City and the County have the power to review,
ratify, modify or veto any action of the Solid Waste Management
Council.
The Solid Waste Management Council has prepared the attached
Landfill budget for calendar year 1995 and has submitted said
attached budget to the City and County for their approval. The
City Council has authority relating to budgets and appropriation
of funds and, therefore, must approve, on behalf of the City, the
Landfill budget. The attached Landfill budget has been available

budget, was duly published as required herein. A public hearing
to consider adoption of said Landfill budget was held on December
6, 1994, in accordance with said notice, at which hearing all
interested persons were heard for and against the estimates of
revenue and expenditures in the Landfill budget.
