6 Next was the parking ordinance. Councilman Warthen said the new ordinance that has been prepared takes off any weight restrictions and he feels this is a parking ordinance only They need to address a tzuck route and a.weight ordinance on our streets and he feels this could be done at a different time. This new ordinance is a combination of several different ordinances and will make one that is enforceable. Motion was made by Councilman Warthen, second by Councilman Bryant, to approve Ordinance #S, 2003 Restricting the use of Town street concerning parking and weight of vehicles, and'that it be published and reviewed in six months. Motion carried S-0. Councilman Bryant asked Mr: Beikman if he had gotten any cast projection of the street repaixs they had discussed at the last meeting. Mr. Beikman said he had not. Mr. Bryant asked about the street sweeping and wanting the council to consider how often to clean the street and what to do with the debris. Mr. Bryant understands that where we have currently been dumping the debris is about full and we are getting into some environmental issues because some rules have changed. Mr. Beikman said we would have to recycle and the cost was about $65.00 a five yard truckload. Councilman Warthen asked haw much do they normally get off each sweeping. Mr. Beikman said last spring they got about 1201oads yr 360 yards of debris. Councilman Bryant asked if it would be less if they sweep again in mid-summer before leaf pick-up. Councilman Warthen asked. about the cost of the Recycler they had talked about before. Mr. Beikman said it was about $60,000.00. Councilman Warthen asked what that would do for the town. Mr. Beikman said it would screen the sand from the positive trash so the sand could be used for clean fill. It would also cut the cost to about $4.00 a yard on the trash and it can be used as landfill. Mr. Warthen asked if there were any being used in the area for that purpose. Mr. Beikman said not for that purpose, some are using them tv recycle dirt they pick up. Councilman Warthen asked if this was a mobile piece of equipment and Mr. Beikman said it was.
