Council Tables Noise Ordinance (Order 1047) for Planning Board Review
Summary
Order 1047, a noise ordinance presented on first reading, was tabled to allow the planning board time to review and make recommendations; council members said it had been a long time since a revision and preferred planning-board input before further council action.
The Brownsville City Council tabled consideration of Order 1047, a proposed noise ordinance, to allow the planning board additional time to review the measure and offer formal recommendations.
During the meeting the ordinance was introduced for first reading; council members noted the planning commission had seen the item in a workshop and that a full planning-board recommendation had not yet been issued. One council member argued it would be in the city's best interest to wait for the planning board's recommendation before further action because the ordinance had not been revised in some time.
A motion to table the item to the next meeting pending the planning board's recommendation was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote. No roll-call vote or amendment language was recorded in the transcript.
