8.5 Ordinance Amendment to Chapter 7 Pawnbrokers License/Public Hearing
Steve Rohlf, Building and Zoning Adminstrator, indicated that the staff
has initiated an Ordinance Amendment to Section 724 of the City
Ordinance. Discussion between the Council and staff took place on
Section 724.14 regarding redemption of articles. Steve Rohlf indicated
that he would feel more comfortable inserting a time period for the
redemption of these articles instead of leaving it up to the pawnbroker.
It was the consensus of the Council to delete the time agreed to by
pawnbrokers and himself and add 30 days to Section 724.14.
Mayor Tralle opened the public hearing. There being no one for or
against the matter, Mayor Tralle closed the public hearing.
