Yamhill County landfill expansion approved

Commissioners give Riverbend green light on expansion - NewsRegister.com.

Riverbend Landfill can pursue its expansion, the Yamhill County Board of Commissioners decided Monday afternoon.

Commissioners Leslie Lewis and Kathy George voted after little discussion to approve the landfill’s application to expand.

Yamhill County Planner Mike Brandt made the staff recommendation from the planning department, and he said Riverbend met criteria for site design, zone change and flood plain building. Brandt recommended approval of the entire application. The commissioners obliged and gave an affirmative vote with no additional qualifications or conditions for Riverbend. The discussion was so short, the meeting lasted less than half an hour.

Commissioners Lewis and Kathy George both voted in favor of the land use application, which combines rezoning, a floodplain development permit to reroute a stream on the property, and a state land use goal exemption.
