REQUEST:

The request for City Council is to approve the second and final reading of Ordinance No. 2024-2285.



DISCUSSION
:

As City Council is aware, the first reading and approval of the proposed Ordinance No. 2024-2285 was conducted at the February 6, 2024 regular meeting by City Council.  The need to modify the existing solid waste ordinance was identified by staff during the single trash hauler conversion process from the City’s existing “open market” solid waste program.

1.     The removal of items from the definition of Solid Waste to include vessels, aircrafts, farm machinery or equipment; sludge, discarded vehicles, mining, agricultural operations.



RECOMMENDATION:

Approval of ordinance 2024-2285 second reading is recommended.
