The City Administrator reviewed the terms of a one year contract with Steve Westerhaus for services as the City's Building Official.

Mrs. Scalze introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION NO. 2000 -2 -49 — APPROVING THE CONTRACT WITH STEVE WESTERHAUS FOR BUILDING OFFICIAL SERVICES AS RECOMMENDED BY THE CITY ADMINISTRATOR AND AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR AND CITY ADMINISTRATOR TO EXECUTE THE CONTRACT ON BEHALF OF THE CITY The foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Morelan. Ayes (4) Scalze, Morelan, Fahey, Pedersen. Nays (0). Resolution declared adopted. The Council reviewed the proposed amendment to the Organized Refuse Collection Ordinance noting that the amendment would allow exemptions for employees of refuse collectors. In discussing the amendment the Council noted that it would allow garbage trucks to go outside their designated areas to collect trash. The Council felt that this would defeat the purpose of organized collection that is to minimize the amount of truck traffic on roads. The Council felt a better alternative would be to allow the refuse company employee to haul their garbage to work rather than allow the second truck onto the street. The Council suggested that the resident making the request be contacted to determine if this is an acceptable solution. Page 34
