COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
This proposed bill for an ordinance repeals Title S, Chapter 10 of the City Code and enacts a new Title S, Chapter
10 (Auto Salvage and Recycled Materials Yards) to the City Code . This license was included in the moratorium ,
and approval of this ordinance will rem ove the license from the moratorium.
At the May 6, 1996 study session, staff discussed the proposed moratorium with the City Council. On June 3,
1996 , the City Council read and passed Ordinance 2S, Series of 1996 on final reading . This Ordinance
established the moratorium to run from June 10, 1996 to December 10 , 1996 . Council adopted Ordinance SS,
Series of 1996 extending the moratorium until April 10, 1997. On February 18, 1997 , City Council approved on
first reading a bill for and ordinance extending the moratorium until July 10, 1997. On February 18, 1997, City
Council approved on first reading a bill for and ordinance extending the moratorium until July 10, 1997. On May
S , 1997 , City Council passed this bill for an ordinance on first reading . This is being read on first reading again

City Council discussed this license with staff at a study session held on February 18, 1997.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends City Council approve this bill for an ordinance .
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED

Yards " to Auto Salvage and "Recycled Materials Yards ." Mainly, changes made include clean up of the language
in the license and fonnatting changes to confonn with the rest of the licenses under Title 5. This license was
enacted in response to community concerns over the impact these establishments have on the surrounding
neighborhoods .
No alternatives were identified .

go to City Council on May 19 , 1997 . The City collected $900 in 1996.
