COUNCIL CHAMBERS, June 22, 2010, 6:00:00 PM
To: Mayor and Council Item P 1
From: Kevin Kish ,Development Services General Manager
Strategic Plan Focus Area:
Not Applicable
Subject: Relating to Development; presentation and discussion on the proposed landfill
rezoning application
Discussion:
The Marana Planning Commission held a public hearing on February 22, 2010 regarding the
proposed Marana Regional Landfill Specific Plan. Since that time, the Town Council has
received ongoing public feedback regarding potential zoning changes that would require Council
consideration and approval to create the Marana Regional Landfill Specific Plan. While the
Town Council does not have authority over the actual permitting of a landfill operation, the
public dialogue to date has raised public policy questions about the proposed landfill's location
and operations that are best addressed by specialists in the appropriate technical fields. The
purpose of tonight's study session is to assemble those experts to provide information o the
Town Council and respond to any questions that the Council may have in advance of the
rezoning hearing.
The format of this study session will include an overview of current solid waste services in the
region, as well as a summary of the proposed project. In addition, presentations will be provided
by each of the town's consultants to specifically address concerns and questions that have arisen
during this process. The five main topics of concern are:
Floodplain and surface hydrology concerns (FEMA)
Subsurface water quality concerns (Aquifer)
Public health concerns
Traffic concerns; and
Airport concerns.
Each consultant will present their findings and be available to answer questions from the Council
and/or be directed to look into additional information. The materials for this study session will be
contained in each presenter's PowerPoint. The technical consultants' final reports will be
provided at the rezoning hearing, which will be scheduled for a later date.
The project area consists of approximately 590 acres, with a proposed rezoning to create the
Marana Regional landfill Specific Plan. The Specific Plan zoning is intended to accommodate a
regional landfill, which will include the ability to provide material recovery and recycling

operations as well as other industrial-related uses. The rezoning process will include a full list of
conditions and requirements that specifically address solid waste disposal, groundwater
protection, site drainage, vector control, site reclamation and re-vegetation.
