Consider an Ordinance Adding Chapter 410 Title Four of the Roseville City Code Regulating the Use of Coal Tar Based Sealer Products Public Works Director Duane Schwartz briefly summarized this item as detailed in the RCA dated June 13, 2011; and as introduced in a previous Council meeting and receiving enthusiastic support of the City Council. Mr. Schwartz advised that this would be more of an educational, rather than enforcement, item; and was strongly supported and recommended by the City's Public Works, Environment, and Transportation Commission(PWET). Pust moved, Johnson seconded, enactment of Ordinance No. 1409 (Attachment A) entitled, "An Ordinance Adding Chapter 410 to Title Four of the Roseville City Code Regulating the Use of Coal Tar-Based Sealer Products within the City of Roseville, MN, as amended — lines 58 — 70;" and enactment of Ordinance Summary No. 1409 (Attachment B) entitled, "Summary of An Ordinance Amend- ing Title Four, Adding Chapter 410, Coal Tar Sealants" Mayor Roe noted that an Ordinance Summary for publication requires a super- majority vote. Councilmember McGehee questioned why the City didn't prohibit sale of coal-tar products in the City of Roseville, rather than having a long, involved process for people to get a permit. Mr. Schwartz advised that such a prohibition would be difficult for staff to en- force, as the product was not generally available for sale any longer over the counter; but the product was still used by door-to-door vendors buying directly from their distributors. Mr. Schwartz advised that this determination was based on research done by other cities as well as Roseville.
