Ordinance to reinstate the Lake County Temporary Emergency Public Nuisance Ordinance.
∙ The County Board first adopted the Lake County Temporary Emergency Public Nuisance Ordinance to enact a temporary ban on open burning in the unincorporated area on May 12, 2020 in recognition of the increased risk of negative health impacts from open burning on individuals infected with COVID-19. This ordinance was subsequently extended by the County Board on several occasions, and most recently expired on December 31, 2020.
∙ In anticipation of the spring 2021 landscape waste burning season and in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, staff has prepared an ordinance to reinstate temporary restrictions on open burning in the unincorporated areas.
∙ The most recent adopted version of the temporary nuisance ordinance from the 2020 fall burn season allowed for opening burning of specified landscape waste on unincorporated residential properties at specified times and on limited days, as well in those instances where the burning occurred at least 500 feet to the nearest habitable structure. Exemptions were included for recreational fires and the use of self-contained outdoor burn devices under certain criteria. The reinstated ordinance would continue these provisions and add new exemptions for prescribed habitat and ecological landscape burns.
∙ If adopted by the Lake County Board on March 9, 2021, this temporary ordinance (Exhibit A) will go into effect immediately and expire on June 9, 2021.

∙ This contract will replace the outdated polymer system, modify the Alum chemical addition system, which is part of the phosphorus removal process, and provide design services for gas monitoring and odor control which will address safety and odor concerns related to the biosolids dryer.
∙ This contract modification will provide final engineering design services for the polymer system replacement, gas monitoring, odor control and alum feed modifications.

∙ This project will include the installation of a structural protective coating that is resistant to deterioration, as well as installation of drop pipes to reduce sewer flow turbulence to extend the service life of these two structures.
