5/3/83 Page -8- Mayor Meier opened the public hearing and Attorney Rautenstraus certified proper publication of the public notice. In reply to Mayor Meier's request for a listing of the businesses this ordinance would effect, City Engineer Blanchard ad- vised a final listing was not available at this time, as it would require an on- sight evaluation which has not been com- pleted. The major user effected would be Storage Technology and they already have a pre-treatment program presently in use. Other businesses that will be re- viewed will be Explosive Fabricators, and three Service Stations. Mayor Meier expressed his concern that the list was not available so that the owners could have attended the public hearing and comment on the regulations in the ordinance. Mayor Meier asked if there was anyone in favor of Ordinance #795. None. Anyone in opposition to Ordinance #795 - none. Duncilwoman Morris Commented that she shared Mayor Meier's con- cern regarding the people who would be directly effected by the ordinance. Suggested before Council take official action on the ordinance this public hearing be extended so the effected owners can be contacted and if they need to respond be given the oppor- tunity to do that. Councilman Ferrera Referred to a section of the ordinance on page 6 requiring a direct service connection to a city sewer main, inquired if this would apply to the properties east of Hiway 42. Administrator ~~rl advised since the City does not have service to them at the present time, this requirement would not apply. City Engineer Blanchard Commented what prompted this ordinance to be written is that it is a requirement of of our discharge permit on the City's waste- water plant. One of the regulations of the State Health Dept. is that the City have in effect an industrial pre-treatment program in addition to a method of enforcing the program in the form of an ordinance. This
