Document Description
Currently, the landfill public hours are 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday, and 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Monday. The landfill is closed on four holidays; Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years's Day, and Easter. The City of Palo Alto Landfill is proposing to open one hour earlier at 8:00 a.m. Monday through Sunday and to be open from 1:00 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Monday afternoon. Therefore, the proposed landfill schedule would be 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., seven days a week. The City is also proposing to be closed for three additional holidays, Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Labor Day. In addition to the Landfill's public hours change and additional holidays, the City is seeking to extend ancillary landfill operations to 6:00 p.m., seven days a week (i.e., refuse spreading, compacting and placing soil cover/alternative daily cover (ADC-tarp) at the active face, one hour beyond the 5:00 p.m. public hours closure for accepting refuse).
