A public hearing was conducted on January 7, 1991, at 9 :00 A.M. , with the following present: Commissioner Gordon E. Lacy, Chairman Commissioner George Kennedy, Pro-Tem Commissioner Constance L. Harbert Commissioner C. W. Kirby Commissioner W. H. Webster Also present: Acting Clerk to the Board, Carol Harding Assistant County Attorney, Lee Morrison The following business was transacted: I hereby certify that pursuant to a notice dated December 10, 1990, and duly published December 20, 1990, in The New News, a public hearing was conducted to reconsider the requirements set at a Show Cause Hearing for Revocation of Certificate of Designation for Eaton Landfill/McMill, Inc. Lee Morrison, Assistant County Attorney, made this matter of record, and gave a brief explanation of previous Board action on this matter. Tom Hellerich, Attorney representing Eaton Landfill/McMill, Inc. , made comments on this matter. He has just received a copy of the proposed agreement, and sees no apparent problems with it. The $4,500 Certificate of Deposit has been put in place. They are requesting the full 12 month period, dating from today, for removal of the tires. Mr. Morrison affirmed that Farmers National Bank called and indicated they are setting up the Certificate of Deposit in the Board of County Commissioners' name, and the interest will accumulate to that account. This would be to the Board' s benefit if they have to execute on the Certificate. The Agreement is that if the tires are not gone within a year, the Board can cash the Certificate and use that money to remove the tires or negate any impacts the tires may have caused. The Board cannot use these funds for any other purposes. The Board also would not be obligated to spend more than what was in that fund. The Board would have other remedies if the expense exceeded this amount. Commissioner Kennedy asked what R.E.C.O.A, stood for. Mr. Hellerich stated it is the Recycling Corporation of America. There was no public testimony concerning this matter. Commissioner Kennedy moved to accept the amount of $4,500 for security and the tires are to be removed within one year from today' s date. Seconded by Commissioner Harbert, the motion carried unanimously. This Certification was approved on the 9th day of January, 1991.
