COUNTY BOARD
OF KANKAKEE COUNTY'S SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE IN
OPPOSITION TO WASTE MANAGEMENT OF ILLINOIS'MOTION TO
RECONSIDER
Respondent, County Board of Kankakee County, Illinois ("Kankakee County Board"),
files this supplement
to its previously tendered Response in Opposition to the Motion to
Reconsider filed
by Waste Management of Illinois, Inc. ("Waste Management"), stating as
follows:
1.
On March 5, 2008, Waste Management filed a Motion to Reconsider asserting
that the Board incorrectly utilized the "manifest weight
of the evidence" standard when it
reviewed the decision
by the local siting authority in this appeal, as a result of
Town
&
Country
Utilities, Inc.
v. Illinois Pollution Control
Rd.,
225 ll1.2d 103 (2007).
2.
On March 19,2008, the Kankakee County Board filed a Response in Opposition
to Waste Management'sMotion to Reconsider.
3.
Subsequent to the filing of its Response
in
Opposition, it has come to the attention
of the Kankakee County Board that the Board previously considered and expressly rejected the
argument presently being asserted
by Waste Management in its Motion to Reconsider that the
Board should not employ the "manifest weight
of the evidence" standard when reviewing a local

Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk's Office, March 20, 2008
siting authority's decision as a result of
Town
&
Country. See Peoria Disposal Co. v. Peoria
County
Bd.,
PC B 06-184 at p.26 (June 21, 2007).
4.
The Kankakee County Board accordingly supplements and reiterates its
previously tendered response opposing the Motion to Reconsider
by citing
Peoria Disposal Co.
v.
Peoria County Bd.,
PC B 06-184 at p.26 (June 21, 2007) as further support for the Board's
correct application
of the manifest weight ofthe evidence standard.
