ORDINANCE TO CONSIDER APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO SECTION 215.765 TO MODIFY THE ALLOWABLE HOURS OF USAGE FOR MOTOR-DRIVEN OUTDOOR MAINTENANCE EQUIPMENT
City Manager Gipson reported that at the April 27, 2021 meeting, the Board of Aldermen discussed an ordinance revision that would reduce the permitted hours of use to only allow such activity from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM on Saturday, Sunday, and holidays. The Board ultimately directed staff and the city attorney to revise the ordinance language to allow homeowners and occupants to use motor-driven equipment as currently permitted but restrict contracted services during the weekend. Bill No. 6836.1 is a substitute for Bill No. 6836 and was amended, copy included in the Board packet. Mayor Harris commented that her thoughts were to also have the Sustainability Committee discuss the proposed changes as it relates to the environment. Alderman Buse commented that the proposed change was brought to the Board due to citizen concerns on protecting their early mornings and evenings as related to noise. She recommends that the Board keep the two issues, environmental (air pollution) and the noise from motorized equipment as separate considerations. She also inquired as to how the City would enforce the ordinance.
