RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY
APPROVING THE SITE IDENTIFICATION AND DESCRIPTION
OF THE COMPOSTING FACILITY AT BROWN FIELD,
AS IDENTIFIED IN THE ORGANIC RECYCLING WEST PROPOSAL
WHEREAS, Section 50000 of the Public Resources Code of the
State of California specifies the review and approval process for permitting of
solid waste management facilities until a Countywide Integrated Waste
Management Plan has been approved by the California Integrated Waste
Management Board; and
WHEREAS, Section 50000 of the Public Resources Code requires
the Board of Supervisors, with the approval of a majority of the cities in the
county containing a majority of the population of the incorporated areas of the
county, to approve a solid waste facility which has not been identified or
described in a County Solid Waste Management Plan; and
WHEREAS, failure of the county or a city to approve or disapprove
a proposed solid waste facility site identification or description within 90 days
after submission is deemed to be approval by that county or city; and
WHEREAS, Organic Recycling West, Inc. has requested approval
for siting a composting facility on a 25-acre parcel located on the northeast corner
of Brown Field, within the City of San Diego; and
WHEREAS, this facility will compost green wastes for subsequent
sale of the compost for agricultural/landscape purposes, and will, by so doing,
also reduce the amount of materials going into the Otay landfill, which will help
National City reach solid waste reduction goals established by the State; and
WHEREAS, the proposed facilities will have no significant adverse
impact on National City.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of
the City of National City does hereby approve the site identification and
description of the Organic Recycling West proposal, and recommends that it be
incorporated into the Regional Waste Management Plan.
