Milpitas officials, believing the nearby Newby Island Landfill and Resource Recovery Park is largely responsible for emitting unhealthy odors into the city's air, filed a petition this week requesting a formal hearing to fight the granting of permits to expand the garbage dump on the San Jose-Milpitas border.
On Monday, Milpitas' legal counsel sent San Jose's Department of Planning, Building and Code Enforcement Division, Local Enforcement Agency, or LEA -- one of the main solid waste permitting agencies on this project -- a request for an administrative hearing.
"Milpitas is seeking a hearing before a neutral hearing panel or hearing officer to consider serious deficiencies in the permit application and permit process," Milpitas City Attorney Mike Ogaz said Tuesday.
