Case/Project No.:
Submitted by: Graham Jura | Ordinance 6413
ITEM 4.C. | Council Action: 6/8/2020 |
|
| | | | | | | | Description
An Ordinance to amend Chapter 12.02 “Miscellaneous Provisions” of the 2015 Municipal Code of Council Bluffs, Iowa, by amending Section 12.02.056 “Open Burn Prohibited”. |
|
| | | | | | | | Background/Discussion
In coordination with the Council Bluffs Fire Department, it was determined that 12.02.056 “Open Burn Prohibited” needed to be updated to reflect that the health department is no longer under control of the City and should instead list the Fire Department as the main department of contact. It was also changed to address a growing concern with the burning of construction lumber (treated and untreated), as well as updating the specifics for Bonfires in accordance with the International Fire Code, as well as other grammatical cleanup. |
|
| | | | | | | | Recommendation
The City Legal Department recommends updated 12.02.056 “Open Burn Prohibited” under the terms described herein. |
