The landfill hearing before the Yamhill County Board of Commissioners has been rescheduled to March 19th beginning at 1:00 PM. It will be held at the McMinnville Community Center. It will begin with the proponents' (Waste Management and Riverbend Landfill) presentation. This will be followed by Waste Not's (that's us) testimony against the expansion. All additional interested parties against the expansion will then have an opportunity to testify. Although not required, verbal testimonies should be documented by submitting a written version to the permanent record.
If you cannot attend the hearing we ask you consider submitting a letter, prior to the hearing, to the Commissioners.
We encourage as many people as possible to come to this hearing. You do not have to speak or provide written testimony. Your physical presence helps demonstrate the depth of concern regarding this application. It will be a long hearing. There will be a dinner break. If you cannot come at 1:00 PM please come later as your schedule permits. Make your voice heard! We need your support! Please spread the word!
After all new testimony is presented the Commissioners either vote that evening or may schedule another time for voting.
