RESOL'UTION NO. 2632
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA,
REQUESTING EXTENSION OF TIME ON BAN
ON USE OF SINGLE CHAMBER INCINERATORS
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA, DOES
DETERMINE AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That the City of Arcadia has for many years
disposed of all garbage and non-combustible refuse emanating within
the City by contracting for the disposal thereof by private enter-
prise. That said contractor disposed of combustible rubbish emanat-
ing within the City of Arcadia by private contract. That said con-
tract for the collection and removal of garbage and non-combustible
rubbish is still in effect with some years yet to run, and was exe-
cuted at a time when single chamber incinerators were lawfully oper-
ated, and said contract did not contemplate the prohibition of the
use of single chamber incinerators and is not broad enough to take
care of the situation which will necessarily result when the use of
single chamber incinerators is banned.
SECTION 2. That since the announced intention of the Air
Pollution Control Board to ban the use of single chamber incinera-
tors on July 1, 1955, the City of Arcadia has been working out the
details of a new contract to include the collection and disposal of
all combustible rubbish emanating within the boundaries of the
City; that such contract cannot be completed by July 1, 1955; that
the City of Arcadia will complete such contract as soon as possible
and probably considerably in advance of October 1, 1955.
SECTION 3. That for the foregoing reasons, the City of
Arcadia does hereby respectfully petition the Los Angeles County
Board of Supervisors, acting as the Air Pollution Control Board,
to extend the prohibition of the use of single chamber incinerators
within the City of Arcadia from June 30, 1955, to October 1, 1955,

to permit the City of Arcadia to make adequate provisions for the
collection and disposal of all refuse and rubbish emanating within the
City of Arcadia. That such extension of time is necessary for the
preservation of the public health, welfare and convenience of the
inhabitants of the City of Arcadia.
SECTION 4. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption
of this Resolution and shall cause copies hereof to be forwarded to
the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors and S. Smith Griswold,
Air Pollution Control officer.
I HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing Resolution was adopted
at a regular meeting of the City Council held on the 7th day of
June, 1955, by the affirmative vote of at least three Councilmen,
