Resolution Opposing the Proposed New Landfill in Salem Township

Please attend the Washtenaw County Board of Commissioners meeting on Wednesday, February 4th, at 7 PM (details below) to show your support for this resolution.

The Washtenaw County Environmental Council advises on policies that protect the health, safety, environment, and quality of life of Washtenaw County residents. On Tuesday, January 27, the Environmental Council unanimously adopted a resolution opposing the proposed NEW LANDFILL in Salem Township. View Resolution. This resolution will be transmitted to the Washtenaw County Board of Commissioners and is expected to be included in the Board's meeting materials for its February 4 meeting.

The Washtenaw County Board of Commissioners is the most important decision‑making body in the approval process for the proposed NEW LANDFILL and represents the best opportunity to stop the NEW LANDFILL from moving forward. Residents who share the Environmental Council's concerns are therefore strongly encouraged to attend this meeting and use the opening public comment period to briefly state their opposition to the proposed new landfill and their support for the Environmental Council's resolution.

The Board of Commissioners will meet on Wednesday, February 4, at 7:00 PM in the Board Room of the Administrative Building, 220 N Main Street, Ann Arbor, MI 48107. Members of the public are invited to attend, and there is a public comment period at the beginning of the meeting during which any attendee may speak for up to three minutes. Please speak up in support of this resolution.
