Broken Bow council adopts ordinance establishing septic tank disposal permit
Summary
On Feb. 23, 2021, the Broken Bow City Council unanimously adopted Ordinance No. 1241, establishing a septic tank disposal permit and repealing conflicting ordinance provisions; the council suspended the usual three-reading requirement to pass the measure at the meeting.
The Broken Bow City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1241 on Feb. 23, 2021, establishing a septic tank disposal permit and repealing prior conflicting ordinances.
Councilmember Larry Miller introduced the ordinance, which the agenda described as "AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF BROKEN BOW, NEBRASKA ESTABLISHING THE SEPTIC TANK DISPOSAL PERMIT, REPEALING THE SECTIONS OF ALL PREVIOUS ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT WITH THIS ORDINANCE, AND PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION AND EFFECTIVE DATE." The council voted to suspend the statutory requirement that an ordinance be read on three different days so the body could consider final passage at the same meeting.
After suspension of the rules (motion by Miller, seconded by Jacob Holcomb) Councilmember Holcomb moved for final passage and Miller seconded. The Clerk called the roll; the vote was recorded as Ayes: Chris Myers, Larry Miller, Jacob Holcomb and David Schmidt; Nays: None. The Mayor declared Ordinance No. 1241 adopted.
The ordinance title indicates the measure provides for publication and an effective date; the text of the ordinance itself (including any fees, timelines, enforcement mechanisms or effective date) was not detailed in the minutes and is therefore not specified here.
The council opened a public hearing on the ordinance at 6:02 p.m. and closed it at 6:05 p.m. before taking final action. No objections or opposing votes were recorded in the minutes.
The council adjourned at 6:31 p.m.
