Finance committee strikes Chapter 13.2 from draft ordinance to avoid redundancy
Summary
Committee members voted to remove Chapter 13.2 (solid‑waste collection/disposal) from a draft Title 13 ordinance and agreed to revisit the ordinance after the assembly addresses a related resolution.
The finance committee voted to strike Chapter 13.2 from a draft ordinance that updates Title 13 (public utilities), citing overlap with a separate solid‑waste ordinance on the assembly agenda. Deb moved to remove sections 13.2004 and 13.2005 (including subsection e); the motion was seconded and the committee voted in favor, with the chair recording the motion as passing.
Treasurer Heather confirmed parts of the draft were duplicative of an item on the assembly agenda and described the draft as a clerical and billing cleanup that remains in draft form. Committee members said removing the solid‑waste collection and disposal section would reduce redundancy and recommended bringing the ordinance back to finance after the assembly acts on the related resolution.
The chair said the committee will treat the ordinance as unfinished business and reconvene it at a later finance meeting to ensure language aligns with whatever the assembly decides the next day.
