Riverview council gives first reading to cross-connection ordinance to comply with state EGLE rules
Summary
Council authorized first reading by title only of proposed ordinance No. 752 to repeal and re-enact sections 70–78 of the city code to update cross-connection prohibitions and meet Michigan EGLE requirements.
The Riverview City Council authorized the first reading by title only of proposed ordinance No. 752 on July 21 to amend sections 70–78 of the city code governing cross connections in the municipal water system.
The ordinance, described on the agenda as a repeal and re-enactment of the relevant sections of chapter 70 (utilities), was presented as necessary to update local code for compliance with the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) requirements. Councilmember O'Neil moved the first reading, supported by Councilmember Pray. The roll call vote for first reading was unanimous as recorded at the meeting.
The action at the meeting was a first reading by title only; no final adoption or second reading occurred. Council did not engage in substantive debate on the ordinance text during the meeting. The ordinance will follow the council’s established code-adoption process, which typically includes subsequent readings and final action at a later meeting.
