Hamilton to open old rodeo grounds for yard-waste disposal; ordinance on clippings given first reading
Summary
On first reading of an ordinance regulating grass-clipping disposal, the board directed staff to open the old rodeo grounds for yard-waste disposal and set times; the bill itself remains at first reading.
Mayor Cole Crawford read the first reading of Bill No. 081125, an ordinance proposed to amend Chapter 75 Article IV of the Hamilton City Code to address disposal of grass clippings.
Discussion among aldermen focused on where residents could legally and practically dispose of yard waste. Ald. Deedie Esry moved to open the old rodeo grounds to accept yard-waste disposal and directed city staff to establish dates and times; Ald. Toni Schmidt seconded, and the board voted in favor.
The ordinance itself was read for the first time and was not adopted at the meeting. Aldermen did not record specific operational details (hours, limits, permit rules) during the discussion; the motion directs staff to set dates and times and to return any recommended operating procedures to the board for approval.
Provenance: Topic appears beginning SEG 001 (first reading) and the motion to open the old rodeo grounds is recorded into SEG 002.
