The City scheduled a public hearing for <br />this evening at Hugo City Hall to present and discuss the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan <br />(SWPPP). <br />Senior Engineer Technician Steve Duff presented the SWPPP to the Council outlining City <br />activities as a result of implementing the SWPPP. Steve explained that there were some new <br />rules but not a lot of changes. He talked about illicit discharge and how to prevent it by educating <br />the public. <br />Mayor Weidt opened the public hearing to take public comment on the City's SWPPP. There was <br />no one who spoke, and the Mayor closed the public hearing. <br />The public hearing is a statutory requirement and no additional Council action was necessary. <br />165t' Street Improvement Project <br />At its February 3, 2014 Council meeting, staff held a public hearing to consider improvements to <br />165th Street and Ingersoll Avenue.
