City council approves
code changes, ground
lease
By CITY OF WILSONVILLE
At the Aug. 5 Wilsonville
City Council, the Council ad-
opted changes to Wilsonville
City Code. These updates sup-
port implementation of
Metro’s regional initiative to
divert commercial food-scraps
away from landfills. Business-
es that produce high volumes
of food scraps are required to
begin participating in a com-
mercial food-scrap collection
program in March 2020.
Additionally, the Council ap-
proved a ground lease that ac-
commodates the installation of
a 180-foot tower on city reser-
voir property north of
Elligsen Road in order
to support Clackamas 800 Ra-
dio Group voice and data com-
munications systems that ben-
efit Clackamas County public
safety providers.
During communications,
state Sens. Kim Thatcher and
Alan Olsen, who represent
Wilsonville north and south of
the Willamette River respec-
tively, provided updates from
the recently completed Oregon
legislative session, including
their work in support of legis-
lation to advance I-5 Boone
Bridge traffic-congestion im-
provements.
