The City Manager stated that no action would take place on each project in the Program without Council ap- proval and perhaps public hearings on individual projects would be held. He suggested that the estimated year for this project could be changed from 1988 to 1989 thus placing it o~tside the three year updatir~q schedule.

She was advised that it is so specified. stated she has observed the use of plastic garbage cans and questioned why they not permitted as those she has seen appear to be very sturdy. The City Attorney said that metal cans had been specified because they would not fracture and could not be chewed by rodents. It was the contention of Councilmember Petkoff that the newer type plastic cans appear to be very appropriate and less likely to dent or fracture. Also, she felt they could be more fly-tight than metal cans and were not so unsightly. Regular Council Meeting September 23, 1985 page 10 requested that this ordinance be reviewed by the Council. 13.
