tional plan with the Cities of Dana Point and San Clemente
to reduce solid waste disposal through source reduction,

commended the City's draft documents.

revenues to offset the City's cost for the program.
Mr. Sampley stated that the majority of the costs would be
borne by the taxpayers but that costs would be partially
offset through service fees for the collection of materials.
He noted that availability of outside funding is limited but
stated that costs could be greatly reduced with the success-
ful implementation of a program, which would eliminate costly
false starts.

Notice having been given as required by law, Mayor Friess
opened the Public Hearing, and the following person respon-
ded:
Marilyn Burke suggested that the City take a more
immediate approach regarding composting of yard waste
and Christmas trees. Mr. Dumhart explained that
composting was addressed in the programs but that a
composting site at the Prima Descheca landfill would not
be available until 1994. Christmas trees will again be
collected, either at City Hall or via curbside pickup,
in 1991.
There being no further input, the hearing was declared closed
with the right to reopen at any time.

3. ORAL REPORTS OF OUTSIDE AGENCIES
a. Foothill/Eastern Transportation Corridor (800.501
Mayor Friess noted the public hearings held in Santa Ana
on July 25, 1991, and in San Clemente, where that city
voted 4-1 to support certification of the EIR and the
