Persons in attendance included Council Members: Soderberg, Zakrzewski, Slavinskas, Luecke, Puzzello, Niezgodski, and Voorde: Don Porter, Kathy Dempsey, Katie Humphreys, and Kathleen Cekanski-Farrand. Council Member Puzzello noted that the first item on the agenda was to review Bill #58-90 which addresses "Scrap Metal Dealers, Junk Dealers, Recycling Operations, and Transfer Stations. " The Council Attorney noted that each Council Member should have received a copy of a Substitute Bill #58-90. She noted that she had met with Patricia DeClercq, the Director of Code Enforcement last week. They had discussed and agreed to amendatory language. She also noted that she had been in contact with the City Attorney, whose office was also in agreement with the language. Basically, the language in Section 1 would grandfather current businesses in existence. However, all new businesses or existing businesses which expand after October 1, 1990 would be subject to the higher fencing requirements for Class B Fencing. She also noted that the Amendment set forth in Section 2 with regard Hardship Situations remain as originally proposed. Council Member Zakrzewski, the Sponsor of the Bill, then gave further supporting comments in favor of the Bill. Kathy Dempsey, then read a letter from Patricia DeClerq voicing support of the Substitute Bill. Council Member Luecke suggested that on Page 1, Paragraph 2, that the Bill be amended to 8 feet. It was agreed that this correction would be made. He also suggested that replacement of fencing should also be considered in the amendatory language at the top of Page 2. Council Member Zakrzewski stated that he would be open to this suggestion. Both the Council Attorney and Mrs. Dempsey noted that fencing is typically replaced in part by weather related matters or because of persons backing into the fencing. It was further noted that in both instances the owners must replace the fencing with fencing of uniform quality.
