With regard to item d~ such a road is no more than would be required of any other d. eveloper if the land were to be developed. In essences the City ~aJns nothing by this offer over what already ma~f be a deve!_opment requirement of a conditional use permit ~ At most, assuming tha-: WMMI does not require local permit approvals, the City m~y be forced to purchase thoroughfare R.O.W. At an esti~ated lengt]~ of 3,400' crossing WMMI property an 80' R.O.W. would require ~c2.uisition of 6.24 acres. At an average value of $2,000/ac:~e, the value of the land would be approxi- mately $12~500 plus l~;gs~], costs. With regar~ to item e , while an annual clean-up day can be of benefit to both resid~nts and the City as a whole, the actual value or cost to WYdMI is relatively insignificant compared to their annu~.l operatioI~.o A quick review of 198(, clean-up day indicates that 577 loads were landfilled at an average size of three cubic yards each. The cost per average pick~,p load ranges from $15-$25.00. We can assume that the amount of wastes will increase as the population increases and that tipping fees will also increase as an expanded landfill again nears capacity. The following table estimates the costs of the clean~-up day program: Year No. Loads Waste ~;st~ Cost/Load WMMI Cost city Cost (Tax) 1986 577 $25 $14,425 $1,560 1987 635 $28 17,780 1,714 1988 698 ~)30 20,940 1,885 1989, 73~ ~35 25~655 1~980 *Assumes less than fuli year of operation with clean-up day in early spring. The ski hill/sled, ding .~[)roposal, item c. above, presents many issues for comment. 1. A PCA permit will be required stating that a ski hill end use is appropriat~. Our conversations with PCA-solid waste ' d~v_sion personne[ indicate that each Site use would be addressed on a ca:~e.~by-case basis, thus they did not rule out such a use immediately. However, their .opinion is that it would be extre~ely unlikely.that such a useYwoUld'be either appropriat~-~ or permitted, i 2. The Co,~nty Landfi.tl Ordinance states 'for a period of five years after final cover (closure period), the owner must restrict site acc~,ss. In addition, for a period of 20 years after the site old, sure (post-closure), the owner/operator shall i~e responsible for, among other things, final cover maintenance,and r~pairo There is no assurance that, because of these requirem~:nts, the County will grant a permit for the ski hill/sled~{iDg uses. 4
