Publishing prepared the last City Code Book for the City of Jeffersonville in 1993.
Council President Samuel asked how often codes should be updated, Mr. Bollhauer said
that they recommend updates be added every year. American Legal Publishing also offers

Sandy Haenisch with Curb Appeal came before the Council to ask them to
consider outsourcing street cleaning with her company. Ms. Haenisch believes that Curb
Appeal would be able to keep more litter out of the sewer systems especially in the
downtown area. They would not only sweep the streets but they would also use a vacuum
truck to clean the sidewalks and grass areas between the streets and sidewalks. Following
a brief discussion Mayor Galligan stated that he would be interested in further discussing
this with Ms. Haenisch.
