Summary

The council approved an ordinance amendment to update references from the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality to EGLE in Chapter 98 cross-connection rules.

The Trenton City Council unanimously approved Ordinance No. 820 on Oct. 6 to amend Chapter 98 (cross-connection references) and update the named state regulatory agency from the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality to the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE).

City Attorney described the item as a routine housekeeping amendment to ensure local code references match the current names of state regulatory bodies and to maintain eligibility for related funding and regulatory alignment.
