Attorney

Obtain final commercial waste hauling franchise terms

Why now: Ordinance 2026-705 passed second reading on 2026-08-19 with all voting aye, and the record only says it provides for 'related terms and conditions' without listing them.

What to do: Pull the adopted ordinance text and any attached franchise agreement to identify the related terms and conditions granted to Sewer Squad LLC. Ask whether those terms create compliance obligations for the company or for other commercial haulers, since the record summary does not state them.

Act before: After the next material record update

Ask who owns Sewer Squad's commercial waste franchise

Why now: Ordinance 2026-705 grants Sewer Squad LLC a citywide right to collect, haul, and transport solid and industrial waste from commercial properties, and it passed with no nays and one recorded appearance.

What to do: Request the franchise application and any ownership or disclosure information for Sewer Squad LLC. The public record names only a Texas limited liability company, so ownership, hauling experience, and any fees to the city remain unanswered.

Act before: After the requested records are produced
