Council Member Aranowski noted that the first item on the Committee's agenda was to review Bill
No. 03-29 which would approve the issuance of scrap metal/junk dealers/transfer station licenses
for the calendar year 2003.
Public Works Director Gary Gilot made the presentation. The resolution addresses fourteen (14)
dealers who submitted renewal license applications. Inspections were conducted by the Fire
Prevention Bureau, Water Works and Code Enforcement. One (1) business has gone out of
business and another was not in compliance with regard to secondary containment and having a
crusher place on a concrete slab with curbs to avoid groundwater contamination. He noted that
inspections look at encroachments into the public right-of-ways, fencing requirements, code issues
and wellhead protection issues.
Council Member Coleman noted that in the past the 6th District Council Member was involved in
the inspection process since all of the dealers are located in that Councilmanic District.

the City should work together with the INS.

replacing it with"Section II".

No. 03-29,as to be amended be recommended favorably to Council. The motion passed.
