WOULD THE CITY BE ABLE TO PRESENT THE WHOLE STORY ON URBAN RE~EWAL
BY MAY 20?
WOULD URBAN RENEWAL PASS WITH TOO MANY MEASURES AND CITY HALL LOCA-
TION ON THE SAME BALLOT?
WOULD IT BE FEASIBLE TO PUT fUNDING OF' CIVIC CENTER ON THE BALLOT
WITH URBAN RENEWAL WHICH MAKES THE CIVIC CENTER IDEA POSSIBLE?
Is IT WISE ~O MOVE SO SWIF'TLY WHEN IT IS NECESSARY TO TIE TOGETHER
THE CIVIC CENTER PROJECT WITH THE CITY, COUNTY, SCHOOL AND
STATE AGENCIES?
WILL THE CITY HAVE TIME TO INFORM THE PUBLIC ON URBAN RENEWAL IN
GENERAL AND SPECIF'ICALLY AS IT REGARDS THE MULLIGAN-SKINNER
PROJECT AND ITS DESIRABILITY AND COSTS?

AREAS AS CONTAINED IN THE PROPOSED GAS CODE, ONE BEING HE BELIEVES F'EESSHOULD
BE COMPATIBLE WITH OTHER FEES F'OR COMPARABLE INSTALLATIONS AND THAT THE FEES AS
PRESENTED IN THE PROPOSED GAS CODE SEEM TO BE SOMEWHAT EXCESSIVE. SECOND, HE
BELIEVES THE INSPECTION PROCESS PROPOSED IS ELABORATE AND WOULD CAUSE DELAYS
AND PRESENT PROBLEMS. THIRD, HE STATED THAT STANDARDS SET UP IN THE PROPOSED
GAS EODE ARE OF A NATIONAL TYPE BUT THAT THE EODE HAS SUPPLEMENTS AND ALTERA-
TIONS WHICH HE BELIEVES WOULD BE CONF'USING TO INSTALLERS WHO MIGHT WORK IN THIS

AS POSSIBLE TO THE WELL-RECOGNIZED NATIONAL STANDARDS. IT IS HIS BELIEF THAT

MR. GETTEY, REPRESENTING'THE LIQUID PETROLEUM AND GAS 'INDUSTRY, BEING THOSE
DEALERS WHO INSTALL BOTTLED GAS AND COMPLETE GAS SYSTEMS, INDICATED THE FOLLOW-
ING OBJECTIONS TO THE CODE:
,;
I'
,I
!
I,
I. THE 10-MEMBER BOARD WOULD BE UNWIELDY.
2. THERE I S SOME CONF'US I ON BETWEEN THE NORMAL ACT.I V I TY OF' THE L I QU I 0
PETROLEUM GAS COMPANIES AND THE NATURAL GAS UTILITIES. HE STATED
THE LIQUID PETROLEUM DEALERS DO A COMPLETE SYSTEM WHILE THE UTILITY
FURNISHES GAS ONLY TO A METER. UNDER THE PROPOSED CODE THE LIQUID
PETROLEUM GAS DEALER GETS MORE INSPECTIONS UNDER THE CODE THAN THEY
HAVE BEEN RECEIVING AND NO PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN ENCOUN~ERED UNDER THE
EXISTING INSPECTION. HE QUESTIONED THE NE~D OF A CODE WHICH WOULD
REGULATE THE LIQUID PETROLEUM GAS DEALERS BY REASON OF NATURAL GAS
COMING TO THE AREA.
3. THE FEE SCHEDULE AS PROPOSED IS OBJECTIONABLE. HE STATED THAT ON A
TYPICAL LIQUID PETROLEUM GAS INSTALLATION THE F'EES WOULD BE $19.00.'
4. THE PROPOSED CODE ATTEMPTS TO SUPPLEMENT THE NATIONAL CODE AND MAKES
THE RECOGNIZED STANDARDS CONTAINED IN THE NATIONAL CODE LESS APPLIC-
ABLE AND POSES SAFETY PROBLEMS.
5. WITH REGARD TO THE VENTING OF GAS HEATING APPLIANCES, THE AMENDMENTS
AS r:CONTAINED IN THE CODE CONTRADICT AND CONF'USE NATIONALLY RECOG-
NIZED STANDARDS.
6. THE DEFINITION OF LIQUID PETROLEUM GAS AS REFERRED TO IN NATIONAL
STANDARDS ARE DIF'F'ERENT IN THE PROPOSED CODE.
7. UNDER THE PROPOSED CODE HE STATED IT IS QUESTIONABLE WHETHER THE
LIQUID PETROLEUM GAS DEALERS COULD OPERATE IN THE CITY.
8. THE L I QU I 0 PETROLEUM GAS DEALERS ARE ALREADY REQU I RED TO HAVE FI VE
LICENSES, TWO FROM THE CITY AND THREE F'ROM THE STATE, AND BY HIS
COUNT THE ADDED LICENSES NECESSARY TO INSTALL A LIQUID PETROLEUM
GAS SYSTEM UNDER THE,PROPOSED CODE WOULD BE TEN, PLUS AN INSTALLER'S
LICENSE.
9. THE MULTIPLE INSPECTION PROGRAM AS ESTABLISHED IN THE PROPOSED CODE
WOULD REQUIRE THREE SEPARATE INSPECTIONS, ONE AFTER T~E INSTALLATION
OF A PROPANE'TANK~ ONE AFTER THE INSTALLATION OF' THE ROUGH PIPING,
AND ONE AF'TER THE INSTALLATION OR CONNECTION OF A RANGE TO-THE SYSTEM.
UNDER THIS PROPOSAL HE INDICATED IT COULD POSSIBLY REQUIRE FOUR STEPS

BEfORE THE WORKMEN WOULD BE ABLE TO~COMPLETE THE INSTALLATION Of THE SYSTEM,
AND WITH THIS IN MIND IT WAS HIS BELIEf IT WOULD DOUBLE THE INSTALLATION CHARGE.
MR. STEVE BATORI, A MEMBER Of THE GAS CODE COMMITTEE, STATED THE COMMITTEE
HAS NO OBJECTION AS TO THE SCALE Of fEES WHICH SHOULD BE CHARGED. HE BELIEVES
THESE SHOULD BE DETERMINED BY THE COUNCIL. THE ONLY THING HE RECOMMENDED IS
THAT THE fiNE fOR NON-COMPLIANCE WITH THE CODE SHOULD BE SUBSTANTIAL. WITH
REfERENCE TO INSPECTIONS, MR. BATOR I STATED THE COMMITTEE BELIEVES INSPECTION A
~ECESSITY, BOT THAT THE THREE INSPECTIONS AS PROPOSED COULD'8E DONE SIMULTAN-
EOUSLY UNLESS THE INSTALLATIONS WERE Of SUCH A NATURE THAT PORTIONS Of IT WERE
CONCEALED. If THEY ARE CONCEALED, IT WOULD BE ESSENTIAL THAT THE INSPECTION
BE DONE BEfORE THE COVERING Of THE PIPES SO THE PIPES AND fiTTINGS COULD BE
EXAMINED. HE fURTHER INDICATED THAT THE NATIONAL CODE SPECifiES MATERIALS fOR
PIPING AND fiTTINGS, AND THAT THE MAJOR DANGER IS IN THE CONCEALED PLACES If
THE WORK IS NOT DONE PROPERLY. WITH REfERENCE TO INSTALLATION HE ALSOSTATED
IT WAS THE INTENT OF' THE COMMITTEE TO SUPPLEMENT MATERIALS ON A NATIONAL OR
ASSOCIATION BA~IS LN THOSE AREAS WHERE QUESTIONS OR CORRECTIONS TO THE BASIC
CODES WERE NEEDED. HE fURTHER CITED EXAMPLES WHERE NATIONAL CODES WERE EXPANDED
BY CITIES TO MEET PARTICULAR NEEDS. HE F'URTHER STATED HE BELIEVES IT fS F'RE-
QUENTLY THE OCCASION WHERE STATE L~WS ARE SUPPLEMENTED BY CITY ORDINANCES.
WITH REF'ERENCE TO THE NUMB~R Of PEOPLE ON THE BOARD, MR. BATOR I INDICATED
THERE ARE SEVEN ACTUAL BOARD MEMBERS, AND THREE EX-OF'F'ICIO MEMBERS, AND IT IS
THE COMMITTEE'S BELIEf THAT WIDER REPRESENTATION ,MIGHT WELL MAKE IT EASIER TO
GET ACTION ON PARTICULAR SUBJECTS. HE LIKEWISE INDICATED!~HAT IT IS NOT THE
DESIRE Of THE GAS CODE F'OR MULTIPLE LICENSING, THAT A CONTRACTOR WOULD REQUIRE
A LICENSE, THE WORKMAN WOULD REQUIRE A LICENSE, AND IT WAS POSSIBLE THERE WOULD
BE CERTAIN STATE LICENSES. MR. BATORI CONCLUDED HIS REMARKS BY STATING HE BE-
, '
LIEVES THE CODE IS ESSENTIAL TO SAF'ETY BOTH F'OR THE UTILITY AND THE LIQUID
PETROLEUM GAS INDUSTRY, THAT IT SHOULD BE KEPT AS A GAS SAF'ETY CODE AND THAT
THE INSPECTION PORTIONS OF' IT ARE AN ESSENTIAL F'EATURE OF' THE PROGRAM.
MR. GETTEY INDICATED THAT THE LIQUID PETROLEUM GAS DEALERS HAVE NO OBJECTION
TO MULTIPLE INSPECTIONS AS NECESSARY, AND IN THE CASE OF' CONSTRUCTION HE 010
STATE THAT ,HE HAD DETERMINED F'ROM THE STATE fiRE MARSHAL'S OF'fICE THAT THE LAW
REQUIRES TH~ STATE TO CONTINUE THE INS~ECTION PROGRAM ,AND TO CHARGE fEES EVEN
IF' THE CITY DOES INSPECTION ON ITS OWN.
fOLLOWING SOME DiSCUssioN AfTER THIS, IT WAS RECOMMENDED THAT THE CITY ATTORNEY
BE INSTRUCTED TO DRAW THE NECESSARY CHANGES IN THE PROPOSED CODE AfTER CON-
F'ERENCES WITH REPRESENTATIVES OF' THE NATURAL GAS INDUSTRY, THE LIQUID PETROLEUM
,GAS INDUSTRY, THE fIRE MARSHAL, THE CITY'S INSPECTION DEPARTMENT, AND REPRE-
SENTATIVES Of THE GAS ADVISORY COMMITTEE, TO THE END THAT THE CODE BE WORKABLE
AND THAT THE F'EES BE REASONABLE AND IN LINE WITH OTHERS, AND THAT SUCH A CODE
BE BROUGHT BACK TO THE COMMITTEE F'OR F'UTURE ACTION. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
IT WAS MOVED BY MR. SHEARER SECONDED BY MR. CHATT THAT ITEMS 7 AND 8 OF' THE COMMITTEE
