Council Minutes of 11-7-2018 emergency. Ordinance 2018-98 reads: an Ordinance amending sections 1364.100 of Chapter 1364 of the Interior Maintenance Code entitled "Notice of Violation" in order to provide an additional method of service for a notice of violation, and declaring an emergency. These ordinances will amend the Interior and Exterior Property Maintenance Codes in order to allow first class US mail delivery as an option for servicing notices of violations to property owners. There are no state laws requiring certified mail delivery and many other notice provisions in other areas of the Code only require regular mail. Other options remain in the Code, including by not limited to personal delivery and posting on the properties. The committee voted 2-0 to recommend approval to full council.

In discussing the items that would be put in a bid package Council had several considerations regarding customer service issues and new recyclable issues. The contract is not up until 2020, but the City would like the bid package put together and out in April or May so the City is a full year ahead as it is anticipating some possible increases because of recycling issues regarding who now will take recyclable waste.
