Prairie City council approves second consideration of yard-waste and utility-rate ordinances
Summary
On April 9 the Prairie City Council unanimously approved second consideration of Ordinance 407 (yard waste and tree debris disposal) and Ordinance 408 (utility rate increases). Both motions passed on roll call votes; final adoption/implementation details were not specified in the meeting record.
Prairie City’s City Council unanimously approved second consideration of two ordinances at its April 9 meeting.
Councilor Deb Townsend moved to approve the second consideration of Ordinance 407, which addresses yard waste and tree debris disposal. Derek Ingle seconded, and the motion carried on a unanimous roll call vote. Shortly afterward, Ingle moved the second consideration of Ordinance 408, addressing utility rate increases; Phil Holland seconded and the motion likewise passed unanimously.
The meeting record shows the council approved both measures on roll call, but the packet and minutes do not specify implementation dates, expected bill impacts, or the statutory mechanism (e.g., whether these second considerations constituted final adoption under Prairie City’s rules). The ordinances were entered on the consent/regular agenda and recorded as passing second consideration.
Councilors and staff did not present additional numerical detail in the transcript for the utility-rate change (for example, percent increases or affected rate classes). Those specifics were not provided in the meeting minutes and are therefore not reported here.
