Council committee recaps sewer-lateral ordinance implementation; Hill Street closure planned
Summary
Council discussed early challenges implementing a recently passed sewer-lateral responsibility ordinance and reported a planned non-rush-hour closure of No. Hill Street the following morning to support related work.
Councilman Bill Neyer told colleagues the Streets and Utilities Committee reviewed how recently passed legislation assigning responsibility for sewer laterals will function in practice. He said the city has already encountered its first challenge under the new rule and that staff expect the process to become more efficient over time.
As part of follow-up work, Neyer told the council that No. Hill Street will be closed for most of the non-rush-hour part of the day tomorrow to accommodate related work. The minutes do not describe the nature of the first challenge, the ordinance text or effective date, nor do they specify the exact closure hours for Hill Street.
