(KLZA)-- Falls City Council members Monday evening approved an ordinance on first reading related to the control of the prevention of the spread of communicable disease, illness or poisoning and adoption of rules and regulations.
The vote was 6-1 with Council member Lucas Froeschl casting a nay vote.
In June the Council discussed adopting a Southeast District Health Department proposal to help the City be able to enforce orders, including forcing someone to quarantine themselves if they were to have a health issue such as COVID-19.
The Council opted to have City Attorney Mike Dunn draft an ordinance addressing the concerns.
The ordinance must pass three readings to be adopted.
