CITY OF MOORPARK
ITEM-8. X.
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Mary R. Lindley, Assistant to the City Manager:,''
DATE: January 28, 1994
SUBJECT: Consider Support for Bailard Landfill Extension
Permit
Background
The Ventura Regional Sanitation District (VRSD) owns and operates
Bailard Landfill located in County unincorporated area near the
City of Oxnard. Bailard Landfill is primarily used by western and
central Ventura County jurisdictions. The permit to operate
Bailard was scheduled to expire in December 1993. VRSD has
submitted a permit application (CUP -3650 MOD No. 1) to extend the
life of the Landfill to a date not to exceed May 30, 1997 or 3.15
million tons.
The Ventura County Planning Commission hearing for the Bailard
Landfill permit application to scheduled for February 3, 1994. The
Commission is requesting comments from jurisdictions. In addition,
the Board of Supervisors has scheduled a hearing for March 1.
In the past, Council has supported the extension of the Bailard
Landfill. Without Bailard, much of western Ventura County's waste
would most likely be trucked to Simi Valley Landfill. The impact
on Moorpark would be increased traffic congestion and air
pollution.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that Council direct the City Manager to write a
letter to the Ventura County Planning Commission expressing the
City's support for the Bailard Landfill Permit Application (CUP -
3650 MOD. No 1).
