Date: April 26, 2011 Item No: 9 <br />Item Description: Coal Tar Ban Ordinance <br />Background: <br />Previous discussion on coal tar emulsions as driveway sealers have resulted in the PWET <br />Commission recommending the city consider a ban on the use coal tar emulsions in the City of <br />Roseville. Staff has requested the City Attorney modify the League of Minnesota Cities model <br />ordinance to reflect a total ban on coal tar emulsions rather than the ban on undiluted coal tar <br />emulsions in the model ordinance. This is what the Commission previously recommended. White <br />Bear Lake and other communities have adopted ordinances with a total ban of these substances. <br />The Roseville draft ordinance is not back from the Attorney at this time but will be sent to the <br />Commission by separate email when it is received by staff. We expect it to be available <br />sometime Monday before your meeting on Tuesday. We are attaching the language in the White <br />Bear Lake ordinance as it will be very similar. <br />Attachments: <br />A. White Bear Lake Ordinance <br />B. <br />C. <br />Roseville Public Works, Environment and <br />Transportation Commission <br />Agenda Item <br />Recommended Action: <br />Review and discuss the draft ordinance and recommend city council consideration. <br />
