Committee backs creation of Seymour municipal clean-fill regulations with no permit fee
Summary
The Joint Committee of the Whole recommended creation of Seymour Municipal Code 34-54 (Clean Fill Site Regulations) after a presentation by Police Chief Schultz, and approved the recommendation with no fee required to obtain a permit.
Police Chief Schultz summarized the need for a municipal ordinance to regulate clean-fill sites, describing the purpose of a new code section. Alderperson Vander Heiden moved that the committee recommend to the council creation of Seymour Municipal Code 34-54 (Clean Fill Site Regulations) with no fee requirement to receive a permit; Alderperson Hurkman seconded the motion and it carried.
The committee’s recommendation would establish a municipal regulatory framework for clean-fill operations; the motion as recorded in the transcript specifies that no permit fee would be required. The recommendation now proceeds to the City Council for consideration and possible adoption.
Next steps: the item will be forwarded to the full City Council for final action; the ordinance text and any implementing procedures will determine enforcement details and permitting processes.
