"Stufflebean said if Milpitas did start sending its waste to be sorted at the SMaRT station it would have to send any waste that is not diverted to Kirby Canyon Landfill in Morgan Hill — owned and operated by Waste Management Inc. — instead of that company’s Guadalupe Mines Road landfill in South San Jose." It is a great News for residents next to the Newby Landfill and the Guadalupe landfill! Since the city of Milpitas has chosen Sunnyvale SMaRt station to sort our city garbage, after sorting, Milpitas' garbage would have to send to Kirby Canyon Landfill, not Guadalupe landfill. Therefore, the city of San Jose will not face a pressure to approve Newby Landfill expansion from residents in South San Jose (Almaden). It will be much easier for the San Jose officials to disapprove Newby Expansion! We are seeing the light of winning the battle of stopping Newby Landfill Expansion. Let's fill all seats in San Jose Council Chambers and make it a final win for all residents in Milpitas, Fremont, N and S San Jose!
