CONSENT - Cathy Sorensen, City Clerk
Title
SECOND READING
ARTICLE VI. - PEDDLERS, SOLICITORS, AND TRANSIENT MERCHANTS, DIVISION 2. - LICENSE
Background
In order to have all fees referenced in the same location in City Code, staff is recommending removing peddler/solicitor fees from the license section of the ordinance and include them with the City’s fee schedule, which Council will consider later in this agenda. Staff also suggests clarifying language that states investigation fees are non-refundable in the event an applicant is denied a license. First reading was held December 7 and no changes were made.
Recommendation
Hold second reading and adopt the proposed ordinance.
