Council discusses nuisance ordinance revisions and appoints code enforcement officer
Summary
Council reviewed a proposed nuisance ordinance revision and unanimously appointed Chris Tremea as the town's code enforcement officer; the ordinance itself was tabled for further review and zoning-related noise language.
Town staff presented a draft recodification of the nuisance ordinance that draws from state code and examples from other municipalities. Beckki Endicott said the draft was intended to provide enforcement “teeth” and to pair with a new enforcement officer who would emphasize education and voluntary compliance.
Chris Tremea, introduced at the meeting, described his prior code‑enforcement experience with Ogden City and emphasized communication with homeowners as key to compliance. Councilmembers discussed whether noise should be addressed in the nuisance ordinance or in zoning sections; Councilmember Sandy Hunter said her community’s most frequent complaint is noise and asked for zone‑specific language to be drafted alongside nuisance code changes. The council voted unanimously to appoint Chris Tremea as code enforcement officer and tabled final action on the nuisance ordinance to allow more review and draft language on noise.
