The 1994 McCall City Code also contained language requiring that waste matter be contained or within a site obscuring fence (1994 MCC 3-27-020). Code Enforcement and Community Development staff issued a letter in August, 2011, to owners and managers of commercial and multi -family residential properties that provided a reminder about the trash enclosure code requirements and outlined a deadline for meeting those requirements. The deadline date of July 1, 2012, was chosen to give property owners and managers time to plan for the design and financial investment needed to meet the requirements of the code, and account for McCall's short viable construction season. A total of seventy-three (73) outreach letters were issued (56 commercial properties, and 17 multi -family residential properties). Property owners on Commerce street presented written and verbal opposition to the trash enclosure requirements during the public comment period of the December 1, 2011, McCall City Council meeting. Council then requested the issue be placed on a future agenda for discussion. Attached find two memos dated November 22 and December 7, 2011, providing more information about the issue. RECOMMENDED ACTION: None. Informational only. RECORD OF COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE ACTION
