RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY
OPPOSING THE GREGORY CANYON LANDFILL AND
RECYCLING COLLECTION CENTER BALLOT INITIATIVE
THAT WOULD ALLOW A LANDFILL IN THE PALA/PAUMA
AREA OF SAN DIEGO COUNTY
WHEREAS, an initiative has been qualified for the Fall ballot to be voted
on by the voters of San Diego County which would allow, by right, a landfill in the
Pala/Pauma area of the County; and
WHEREAS, siting of landfills is, and should be, a process including
adequate environmental protection and public input; and
WHEREAS, the proposed initiative process prohibits full public disclosure
of environmental impacts, development of mitigation measures, and public disclosures of
unmitigable impacts and requires public funding for elements that would normally be
developer -funded; and
WHEREAS, the proposed initiative appears to provide privileges and
immunities to its proponent and to the proponent's properties to the exclusion of other
citizens and other properties.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City
of National City that developing and amending a local general plan and zoning ordinance
by initiative to support a private project is inconsistent with the public good and general
welfare of the people of San Diego County.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council opposes the Gregory
Canyon Landfill and Recycling Collection Center Ballot Initiative.
PASSED and ADOPTED this 23rd day of August, 1994.
