COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
The City Council has met at a number of study sessions and passed ordinances to clean up, simplify
and add to TIUe 5 of the City of Englewood Municipal Code.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends the City Council approve the attached bill far an ordinance .
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
This bill for an ordinance repeals TIiie 5, Chapter 29 . which addresses issues surrounding garage
sales , secondhand dealers , and the sale and display of weapons . The City does not license garage
sales , secondhand dealers , and weapons dealers, so the provisions are being moved to more
appropriate TIUes and Chapters in the Code. This bill for an ordinance does change the content
regarding garage sales and display of weapons , but does require secondhand dealers to comply with
some of the requ irements of pawnbrokers .
This action is part of the continuing efforts by City staff to clarify , clean up , and simplify miscellaneous
license provis ions included in TIiie 5.
No alternatives were identified .
FINANCIAL IMPACT
This action has no impact on City finances .
UST OF ATTACHMENTS
