COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
City Council has discussed this topic numerous times, including the September 19 and October 3, 2005
study sessions. Council passed Ordina nce 54, Series of 2005 on November 11 , 2005 which added
Reflexology licensing to the Englewood Municipal Code. Council also passed Ordinance 3, Series of 2006
which amended the transitional period for reflexology licenses.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends Council approve the attached Bill for an Ordinance amending the education
requirements for reflexologists to allow an applicant a lice nse if they possess a valid certificate from a slate
recognized reflexology certification board. The language in the Code would read as follows:
5-8 -3-C-2:
b. In the alternative, the applicant must possess a current, valid certificate from a state recognized
reflexology certification board.
City staff has worked with a number of reflexologists in developing th is license to insure only qualified
practitioners are allowed lo be licensed and practice their profession in the City of Englewood. Staff
believes a reflexologisl holding a current, va lid certificate from a stale recognized reflexology certification
board has th e necessary education and experi ence for li censing in the City of Engl ewood.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
This will not impact the City's financial position.
