The Wayne City Council on Dec. 2 approved a string of routine administrative items and opened the first reading of a revision to the city’s fire-prevention code.
Council members voted to approve an agreement with Michigan Humane of Detroit to provide animal services for the city and authorized an emergency repair to a fire rescue vehicle for $4,824.24 to be performed by Kuda Automotive Service of Westland, to be paid from the fire department budget. The council also adopted the annual Michigan Department of Transportation performance resolution for permits in state highway rights-of-way and a Wayne County resolution permitting emergency repairs, maintenance and other work on local and county roads within the community. All motions passed by voice vote; individual roll-call tallies were not specified in the record.
The meeting opened the first reading of Ordinance 2025-2, described by staff as an amendment to Wayne City Code chapter 16.10 (fire prevention) adding section 16.10.16 regarding open burning. “The first reading is now open,” an official stated during the meeting; no public comments were offered during the first reading.
Procedural motions during the meeting included formal approval of the meeting agenda and the Nov. 18 regular meeting minutes, both adopted by voice vote.
The approvals were routine and drew little discussion. The repair contract was described as an emergency expenditure to restore a department rescue vehicle. The council did not specify individual vote tallies in the public record; minutes will reflect the actions taken and any subsequent readings required for the ordinance.
