City council weighs private wells and permit denial
Wells Nelson argued the county erred in denying his permit without an ordinance conflict and said he may appeal with the county or state. He plans irrigation use and possibly residential use, with disconnection from city water to avoid cross connections. Council members, including Scott Lauridsen, kept the private well ban in mind to prevent backflow issues while noting Nelson’s permit and the ordinance are separate matters. The ordinance faces a second-reading July 6.
