Create enforcement plan for industrial pollution violations
Resolution 102-19
In Plain English
The city currently lacks a formal system for responding when businesses violate water pollution rules. This plan establishes clear steps city staff must follow when industrial users dump illegal chemicals or exceed discharge limits. If approved, the city gets consistent enforcement procedures instead of handling each violation case by case.
