Burning Ban To Be Amended
More than 30 residents attended Monday night's City Council meeting, most to see if the Council would change Burning Ban Ordinance #608.
The ban has been a source of controversy over the past several months. Elgin businesswoman Janet Koinzan has plans to build a retirement community on the southwest edge of Elgin. In order for construction to begin, a large amount of trees must be remove. Economically, burning the trees would be the best option but is currently not possible due to the open burning ban in city limits. By the end of discussion, the City Council voted three to one (Shirley Nissen voted "no") to amend the ordinance.
Other items discussed included a community cleanup day, tree limb cleanup, liquour license approval for The Steel Steed Steakhouse & Saloon, ball park care, Board of Health issues, opening day at the swimming pool plus more.
