ISSUE
SKB Environmental, Inc. (SKB) is requesting a revision to their Interim Use Permit (IUP) to allow an
expansion to their facility at 13425 Courthouse Boulevard from 151 acres of disposal area to 167 acres of
disposal area. The proposal includes an expansion in total disposal volume from almost 27 million cubic
yards to a little more than 35 million cubic yards, representing a 32% increase in volume. The increased
volume is accomplished by expanding the footprint of the landfill by 16 acres and an increase in the finished
height of the landfill by 50 feet. Increasing the footprint of the landfill will require filling 9.19 acres of
designated wetlands.
SKB's consultant is preparing a wetland mitigation plan to accommodate the proposed wetland filling, but
that plan has yet to be submitted. Staff cannot evaluate the proposed expansion without the wetland
mitigation plan and therefore is recommending that the Planning Commission open the public hearing and
then continue the public hearing to the September 10, 2013 Planning Commission meeting.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission open the public hearing and then continue the public
hearing to the September 10, 2013 Planning Commission meeting.
