BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City of Lodi presently owns the Sanitary Landfill property t100 acres on Harney Lane which is being operated by the San Joaquin County Public Works Department. The County is operating the Landfii-1 under a lease agreement dated Jan!tary 1975 which will automatically terminate at such time as the existing site is no longer used as a landfill. At that time the City and the County will be covered under a subsequent supplemental agreement dated March 19, 1980, under which the County will be responsible for the Landfill closure in conformance with their plan and that the County will provide the required monitoring and maintenance of the Landfill for a 10 -year period after ciosure. This agreement also states that the County and the City will have joint responsibilities as it relates to groundwater contamination. The City of Lodi recently received the attached letter from Supervisor George Barber requesting that the City of Lodi consider selling a 1.8 acre strip of land along the westerly property line of our Harney Lane Landfill property. Ikmever, the actual amount they desired is 2.5 acres which includes the 25 -foot PUE easement under the PG&E powerline. The purpose of the request Is to provide additional land to the San Joaquin County Housing Authority for their proposed improvement of the Harney Lane Farm Labor Facility. A copy of their preliminary site plan has also been attached. The area shaded is the 2.5 acres they wish to obtain ownership of. The acreage being requested has not been used for the sanitary fill operation. Prior to the County taking over the operation of our Harney Lane site in 1975, they operated a County Landfill adjacent to the City's property. The County Landfill is directly south of the Labor Facility and west of our site. 7be County will have the long-term responsibility of awintaining and monitoring the i r closed l andf i l l . Therefore, there would be two public agencies nw in- taining and monitoring two adjacent landfills. The County has the trained staff to accomplish this, the City does not. APPROVED: HENRV A. CLAYES. C ty Manager fiLE 40. 4 _0 City Council April 16, 1984 Page 2 After reviewing the total site In the field with the City Council, and considering the Iimited use of the property, the long -terve maintenance and monitoring requirements, and the ongoing liability of groundwater qua)ity and methane production, It appears to be iv the City's overall best interest to transfer ownership of total site to the County. In addition, the State Solid Waste Management Board Is continually upgrading their standards as they relate to Sanitary landfill closures, maintenance, monitoring and land owner responsibi'iIties. Therefore, the City's long-term liabilities will only be increasing with time. hack L.

Weber Ave. Stockton, CA 95202 Re; Harney Lane Farm Labor Camp Dear Mr. Barber: In response to a request by Mr. Joe Artesi, San Joaquin County Housing Authority, we have investigated an adjacent area to the east of the former campsite. At Mr. Arteesi's request we are directing the results of that investigation to your attention. The area presently used as the dump site, is owned by the City of 'Lodi. A P.G.&E. right-of-way (dating back to 1917) traverses the property from Harney Lane on the north to the center of the section on the south. A narrow strip of land (approximately 1.8A) is isolated by the P.G.&E. right-of-way and the dump property line. This strip of land appears to present an interesting but positive effect on the proposed Labor Camp. It is our understanding the dump site will terminate receiving solid waste in approximately 2 years and will reach a maximum fill height. We proposed to Mr. Artesi and were encouraged by his response that this strip be utilized as a portion of the Labor Camp. Supervisor George Barber March 26, 1984 Page 2 is The positive effects on the Labor Camp are: 1. Allowing more bencficial use of the land. 2. Reducing land use intensity b increasing area without adding additional dwellings or inhabitants. 3. Allow greater area for landscaping and family activities. 4. Enhance appearance of general area adiacent to landfill. The negative effects on the Labcr Camp are: 1. Requires relocation of a portion of landfill service road on the Westerly perimeter. 2. Additional runoff from rainfall must be addressed in the design process. 3. Control of migrating methane gases as developed within the landfill must be considered. We have had tentative discussions with P.G.&E. about the type of development allowed within the right-of-way. Compatible uses include green -belts, parking, etc. but disallows any permanent structures. We look forward to your consideration of t'nis effort and the opportunity to be of service., TCH/dls Sincerely, -S PROFES ZONAL CONSULTANTS, INC. s C. opka.
