New Peak Design Benefits
Increased landfill volume and life expectancy Max. capacity expectancy shifts from 2075 t0 2100
Minimizes user fee increases If we needed to move to alternate disposal method (i.e.
shipping waste out of region) fees would increase substantially
Economic Additional billion dollars worth of airspace
Would not affect smell or noise levels
New Peak Design Benefits (cont.)
No major costs associated with shift to new fill plan Would only require minor changes to infrastructure
Visual impact would be minimized as landfill grows Progressive closure: side slopes would be revegetated as the
landfill grows in order to reduce aesthetic impacts. Blends into natural terrain of surrounding Tutt Mountain and
Bredin Hill
More flexibility City Council would have the option to adjust and slow
landfill growth at any time. The 20 meter elevation increase does not have to be fully
realized, but gives City Council’s of the future the option.

2017 Enhancement Projects
Electronic Sign
Improved communication
& information to all haulers
New Website
Improvements on information

Leachate Recirculation (Phase 1)
Recirculation of leachate within the landfill will increase
the decomposition of the waste and increase production of
landfill gas
Landscaping
Future plantings to occur on John Hindle & Glenmore Road
