1.
Mr. Roger J. Dolan, General Manager-Chief Engineer, advised that in
addition to the proposed annexation, consideration of a 1978 Board policy
which restricts the annexation and connection of properties in the
Tassajara Valley is requested. The District has received requests to
connect properties to the system. While the policy was appropriate when
adopted, there may be some justification for modification of the policy
at thi s time. Staff has been advi sed that install ati on of the 24-i nch
pipe will be included in an assessment district which is contemplated by
the city of Danville.
Mr. Fred A. Sanders, representing Mr. Silvio Quei rol 0, reported that
the city of Danville has provided a window period to assist property
owners in this area. Mr. Sanders requested that Mr. Queirolo be allowed
to connect to the existing trunk sewer located in Camino Tassajara upon
completion of his single family residence.
It was moved by Member Clausen that: (1) Inclusion of P.A. 84-21 be
authorized in a future formal annexation to the District subject to
prepayment of watershed trunk charges. (2) The exi sti ng Board policy be
modified to permit connections to the District's sewer system in the
Tassajara Valley after a contract is awarded for the installation of the
downstream trunk sewer improvements. If at any time the Board i s made
aware that inadequate progress is being made on the installation of the
sewer improvements, the authorization to connect will be rescinded. (3)
Staff be directed to investigate the city of Danville resolution and
return to the Board with a recommendation for possi bl e modification to
District policy based on said resolution. Following discussion, the
above motion was withdrawn by Member Clausen.
Following discussion by Board and staff, it was moved by Member
Cl ausen and seconded by Member Carl son, that i ncl usi on of P. A. 84-21

GENERAL MANÞGER-CHIEF ENGINEER
a. Mr. Dolan, General Manager-Chief Engineer, reported that the
Annual Physical Science Scholarship Dinner will be held on November 14,
1984 at 6 p.m. All Board Members are invited to attend.
b. The pipe for the Moraga slide repair authorized at the last
Board meeting is in place and functioning.
c. Mr. Dol an reported on the West Contra Costa Sanitary Di strict
emergency meeting attended by District staff on October 25 in Pinole. At
this meeting a resolution was adopted requesting that Sites I-I and 1-2
be removed from future consideration in the Solid Waste Management Study,
that as an alternate the study include expansion of the existing West
Contra Costa Sanitary Landfill as a site for the di sposal of ash and
other residue from the waste-to-energy plant, and that West County cities
and sanitary districts cooperate and work together with the
waste-to-energy project and landfill study. It was the consensus of the
Board that staff be directed to draft a response to the West Contra Costa
Sanitary District resolution.
d. The Board of Supervisors has sent a letter to the franchising
agencies requesting them not to respond to the West Contra Costa Sanitary

the
e. Mr. Dol an requested i nput from the Board rel ative to a meeti ng
with recyclers to be held prior to the next landfill project public
workshop.
President Pro Tam Boneysteele suggested that consideration be given
to the extensive report prepared on this subject approximately ten years
ago. Since the recyclers have been involved in the current landfill
project public participation process, it would be in our best interests
to take notice of their views.
Member Carl son stated that there are various sites throughout the
County available to the public for recycling at this time. Including
recycling at this point in the landfill study would unnecessarily
complicate the process. Recycling can be implemented when there is some
economic gain for either an individual or an organization without
impacting the general public by increased collection rates.
Member Clausen indicated that recycling should be considered in the
operational phase of waste disposal. It should be done within economic
reason to lengthen the life of a landfill site.
Member Stanley stated that recycling was included in the original
resolution and should continue to be a part of the study.
