Discussion:
The Sonoma County Public Infrastructure Department (SPI) is requesting adoption of a Resolution confirming new members to the Local Task Force (LTF). The Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 (AB 939) required the Board of Supervisors to appoint a local task force for development and updating of the County’s Integrated Waste Management Plan. This plan includes a Source Reduction and Recycling Element, a Household Hazardous Waste Element, a Non-Disposal Facility Element, and a Siting Element. Consistent with AB 939, the LTF also serves to advise the Board of Supervisors on other countywide solid waste resource management and recycling issues.
On behalf of the LTF on Integrated Waste Management, SPI is requesting the Board adopt a Resolution confirming new members for a new six-year term.
Background
The LTF on Integrated Waste serves as an advisory committee to the Board of Supervisors and Zero Waste Sonoma (formally the Sonoma County Waste Management Agency) on solid waste issues as well as assists with the development of and revisions to the Sonoma County Countywide Integrated Waste Management Plan. Current members have either been appointed by the represented Cities and County or volunteers representing public or industry interests in solid waste.
The term of the appointment to the Local Task Force is currently six years. LTF members have requested the Board appoint three new members in order to fill existing vacancies in membership. This will bring the members list up to date.
Proposed New and Renewed Appointments
The following individuals are new appointments to various positions:
• Luana Pinasco, as the new alternate to the seat of District 4 Representative, for a term of six years from August 15, 2023 to August 15, 2029.
• Stephen Zollman, as the new primary for the seat of City of Sebastopol Representative for a term of six years from August 15, 2023 to August 15, 2029.
• Darek Troebridge, as new primary for the seat of Agricultural Industry Representative for a term of six years from August 15, 2023 to August 15, 2029.
On behalf of the Local Task Force on Integrated Waste Management, SPI is recommending that the Board adopt a Resolution confirming these memberships for six-year terms.
