Ordinance: Temporary Closure of 7200 West Between Interstate 80 and California Avenue
The Council will accept public comment and consider adopting an ordinance that would temporarily close a segment of 7200 West between I-80 and California Ave to mitigate unsafe conditions. State law allows temporarily closing certain streets until the unsafe conditions are mitigated or up to two years, whichever is less. Recurring illegal dumping activity on and adjacent to the road has worsened the risk of fire and caused mitigation expenses to the City.
