Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
The soil necessary for ongoing landfill operations is being excavated from a recently acquired property on the opposite side of County Road 104 from the landfill. To transport this soil, heavy equipment needs to cross County Road 104 repeatedly, which would pose a safety risk to the public. Both Street and Highways Code Section 942.5 and Yolo County Code Section 4-3.501 allow the Board of Supervisors to temporarily close a road to protect the public. County Road 104 is very lightly used, there are no residences on the road and agricultural vehicles can utilize alternate routes. Therefore, impact to the public and other local property owners for this temporary closure is minimal.
Similar closures were approved in previous years and were successfully implemented. |
Collaborations (including Board advisory groups and external partner agencies) |
Staff of the Division of Integrated Waste Management coordinated with the Conaway Preservation Group, who are the only other property owners serviced by this section of County Road 104. |
