Items continued or sent for further readings
- Ordinance 25-10 (noise ordinance amendment): staff requested a technical amendment to add an exception allowing operation of essential public-service and utility equipment without violating the city's noise ordinance; council began consideration and an attempt to suspend rules failed because five affirmative votes were required. The matter will return for another reading.
- Ordinance 25-11 (refuse collection timing): staff proposed lowering the required time to place refuse containers at curb from 7 a.m. to 5 a.m. on certain main arterial routes to allow earlier collection and avoid rush-hour traffic. Council held a public hearing and the ordinance will return for another reading to allow notification and implementation planning.
