Pat Carruthers-Green with Safe Building discussed a new building code that the city is considering adopting. This code would provide more regulation on all aspects of building; mechanical, plumbing, property maintenance, fire prevention, energy and gas; with inspections by an official building inspector.
There was much discussion among council members and Pat. At this time, the council will continue to review the code and plan to meet with some local contractors prior to adopting a new building code.
With the recent storm there have been many reports of branches down. The City currently does not have a place to put trees and branches and therefore will not be participating in a clean up day. Residents will need to take yard waste to the Boone County Landfill who has extended their free landfall days due to the storm. The city has open burning through May 31st.
Motion by Liston, seconded by Ohlson to adjourn at 9:53 pm. Ayes: All Present, Motion Carried.
Mark Trueblood, Mayor
Attest: Emily Clausen, City Administrator
