LAKEPORT – The Lakeport City Council will hold a public hearing on its Municipal Sewer District's new Sewer Use and Pretreatment Ordinance at its Tuesday meeting.

The council meeting will start at 6 p.m., and will be preceded by a 5 p.m. staff and council workshop, in which they'll discuss the annexation update, and committee assignments and liaisons with other agencies.

The 56-page sewer district ordinance, No. 872, is necessary to comply with recent federal and state legislation regarding the operation of sewer systems, according to a staff report by city Utilities Superintendent Mark Brannigan.

In his report, Brannigan also notes that the city needs to modernize its 30-year-old chapter municipal code in order to meet Environmental Protection Agency and 2007 California Plumbing Code.

A copy of the ordinance can be found on the city's Web site at www.cityoflakeport.com/departments/docs.aspx?deptID=43&catID=102.

Following the open portion of the meeting, the council will adjourn into closed session to discuss labor negotiations with the Lakeport Employees Association.

Lakeport City Hall is located at 225 Park St.
