adopted a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement, dated October 27,
1987, creating the Alameda County Waste Management Authority; and
WHEREAS, the City of Alameda is a member of said Authority;
and
WHEREAS, the Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement provides
that the Authority is responsible for preparation, adoption,

cities with a majority of the incorporated population must
approve said Plan; and

transmitted by the Authority to all concerned parties for review
and comment; and

of Adoption
page 2
WHEREAS, the City of Alameda reviewed the Plan and held a
duly noticed public hearing on March 19, 1989 as required by law;
and
WHEREAS, the City of Alameda has reviewed and considered all
documents described herein, including the Final EIR for the
project, all written material and public testimony at the public
hearing, within the time period allowed by the Authority; and
WHEREAS, the City of Alameda is a responsible agency in the
process of preparing and adopting the Alameda County Hazardous
Waste Management Plan.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the City of Alameda has
approved the Plan because currently there is no countywide
planning for dealing with reducing, treating, handling and
disposing of hazardous wastes. Recent State legislation (the
Tanner legislation -- AB2948) authorizes and encourages counties
to prepare such plans. Alameda County is participating through
the Authority; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City of Alameda does hereby
approve the Alameda County Hazardous Waste Management Plan dated
March 22, 1989; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that this resolution be transmitted
to the Authority; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City of Alameda will bring
the City General Plan in conformance with the Alameda County
Hazardous Waste Management Plan as required by State law.
