The Wapello County Board of Supervisors adopted Chapter 31 — Private Sewage Disposal Systems, of the Wapello County Code of Ordinances during its June 30 meeting following a public hearing that drew no written or verbal comments.
Vice Chair Carrie Teninty moved to open and later to close the public hearing; Supervisor Bryan Ziegler seconded both motions.

The ordinance establishes county-level standards for private sewage disposal systems; the minutes do not include additional detail about substantive changes in requirements. The board’s action was taken as a final adoption and the usual additional hearings were waived by vote.
The adoption followed the formal public-hearing process required under county procedure. The board moved on to other agenda items immediately after the vote.
