Counsel File No. WRK 05-9191 <br /> You have asked the following questions: <br /> 1. Does the General Plan (Bill 163, Draft 4) meet with our approval as to <br /> form and legality? <br /> SHORT ANSWER: <br /> Yes. <br /> 2. The proposed General Plan, Bill 163, mentions green waste diversion, <br /> landfill site exploration, and recycling in the Solid Waste section (page <br /> 237, Ramseyer). It makes no statement of policy about waste reduction <br /> technology. <br /> Would any capital budget appropriation for the waste reduction technology <br /> for feasibility, site selection, planning or construction be legally <br /> questionable because it is not specifically mentioned as a policy in the <br /> General Plan? <br /> SHORT ANSWER: <br /> No. <br /> 3. The Council Committee took several parcels in Kona out of the Important <br /> Agricultural Land designation base upon the testimony of its landowners. <br /> Comm. No._ 7'•,~ <br /> P.ef.
