Porter moves to draft ordinance requiring business dumpsters behind fences
Summary
After discussing limits on requiring fences for all residents, trustees directed staff to draft an ordinance requiring businesses to keep dumpsters behind fences; the board voted unanimously to draft the ordinance.
The Board discussed whether the town can require dumpsters to be kept behind fences. Mayor Steve Dickey said making a fence requirement mandatory for all residents would be difficult because some residents have dumpsters but no fences. Trustee Bradah Littlefield suggested the town require businesses to keep dumpsters behind fences.
Town Attorney Terri Craig told the board that "this would have to be done with a Town ordinance." Acting on that discussion, Mayor Dickey moved to draw up an ordinance requiring businesses to keep dumpsters behind fences; the motion was seconded by Bradah Littlefield and passed unanimously.
The minutes record the board's direction to prepare an ordinance; they do not include draft language, an implementation timeline or an effective date.
