Title

PUBLICATION OF THE TITLE AND SUMMARY OF ORDINANCE 17-2391 AMENDING APPENDIX D - FEE SCHEUDLE OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE OF THE CITY OF BLAINE

Background

Minnesota Statute 412.191, Subd. 4, provides for publication of the title and summary of an ordinance in the case it is lengthy, if the City Council determines that publication of the title and a summary would clearly inform the public of the intent and effect of the ordinance. As Ordinance 17-2391 is lengthy staff is recommending adoption of the proposed summary resolution. The entire ordinance with fee schedule is available for inspection during regular office hours at City Hall and can be forwarded upon request.

Recommendation

Adopt the resolution providing for a summary publication of Ordinance 17-2391.
