In March of 1997, the County Commissioners established a Solid Waste Task Force whose purpose was to identify and evaluate potential options for the replacement of the Larimer County Landfill and to recommend a preferred option or options to the Board of County Commissioners. Members of the task force were appointed from a pool of applicants and reflect the diverse geographical, demographic, technical and non-technical backgrounds of the citizens of Larimer County. Representatives from consulting groups, municipalities, agriculture, Colorado State University, trash haulers, Larimer County government, the Environmental Advisory Board, Sierra Club, industry, small business, Colorado Private Property Rights, and interested private citizens serve on the task force.
Meeting minutes are available online.
The Task Force's by-laws are also available.
