The ordinance (BL 20 25 9 0 6) was introduced on the agenda as an amendment to certain chapters and subsections of the Metropolitan Code (listed on the agenda as chapters 2.62, 12.56, 13.02, 13.08, 13.2, and 13.32). A councilmember raised procedural and substantive concerns and said they had sent suggested amendments to Margaret Darby for staff review: “Well, I think it got deferred in budget finance, and I was gonna defer it in here too because I got some problems with it. I sent them to Margaret Darby, hopefully, to get an amendment.” A motion to defer consideration by one meeting was made, seconded and approved by recorded voice: “All in favor, say aye. Aye.” The chair recorded the committee vote as 6-0 in favor of deferral.

No substantive changes to the ordinance text were adopted at this meeting; members indicated they expected to consider an amendment before the item returns to committee. The transcript does not include the proposed amendment language or any fiscal estimates tied to the fee increases.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","07/15/25 Metropolitan Council Committee: Government Operations & Regulations","oneSentenceSummary","An ordinance to let the Metropolitan Department of Transportation and Multimodal Infrastructure increase permit administrative fees over time was deferred one meeting after a motion to defer; the motion passed 6-0 in committee.","taxTitle","Government Operations & Regulations Meetings, Nashville, Davidson County, Tennessee","taxId",69323,"location","Tennessee","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_46":81,"_48":82,"_50":83,"_52":84,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":85,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":86,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":71,"_72":73,"_74":73},6170313,"Committee withdraws resolution to amend sidewalk café rules; staff to refile as ordinance",146,97000,243000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5398132-82f2946c566bebf0239faf5c4819e2b6&start=97&end=243","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5398132-82f2946c566bebf0239faf5c4819e2b6/thumbnail_97000.jpg","/articles/6170313/Tennessee/Committee-withdraws-resolution-to-amend-sidewalk-café-rules-staff-to-refile-as-ordinance","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6170313-70a85112feac06dae79b2502615ae91e/orig.mp4?Expires=1776036939&Signature=NmG1cP4ZnzZGch4mUy5dsvsA9zJZbm7OgwlowljffyERwSTEXGKhJFh04rENz03wFFQLc-Zs1Bnhqjwf4ZZdpUPSNJpq3y3RRGUl-eiXmkNhzXJzWbUn7-1bD0OaU1zmTkJ3wKw5T47658VeKbGH9QlIUBQMBCT77ck4vxEK7wjobldYbetAQ0okoUFPNZBLGmuRzjdn7x5t3BhjIXeQxMvFMeS2RIplKyP~haKM0L5ywTJwiaPHssFw5909UnD4e86~Cc3FTEt3GLETNclDCQ3mk5aHfld1oODmGx1a6rp9Vtpueye5p2wiRVbGJq0dtU58o38fWMxkd-otjoMXwg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Government Operations & Regulations Committee withdrew a resolution that would have amended a subsection of the Metropolitan Code of Laws related to sidewalk café dining rules and regulations.

The item (RS 20 25 13 51) was brought up for consideration but members and staff noted the change to the code cannot be accomplished by resolution. An unidentified speaker observed, “This one must come back as an ordinance. We're trying to amend it by resolution as the code says, but apparently, the charter and state law both say you can't move the code by resolution.” A motion to withdraw the resolution was made and seconded during the meeting; committee discussion recorded that staff would refile the proposal as an ordinance in the near future.

Committee members asked whether a formal vote was required to withdraw; staff clarified a cosponsor may withdraw and that withdrawal does not require a formal roll-call vote in the recorded exchange. The transcript indicates the withdrawal will be followed by a refiling as an ordinance, but no new ordinance text or timeline was provided on the record.","A resolution to amend the Metropolitan Code’s sidewalk cafe dining rules was withdrawn after committee members and staff concluded such a code change cannot be made by resolution; the item is expected to be refiled as an ordinance.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":42,"_45":91,"_46":92,"_48":93,"_50":94,"_52":95,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":96,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":97,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":71,"_72":73,"_74":73},6170318,"Committee accepts cooperative purchasing master agreement form for General Services",70,70000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5398132-82f2946c566bebf0239faf5c4819e2b6&start=0&end=70","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5398132-82f2946c566bebf0239faf5c4819e2b6/thumbnail_0.jpg","/articles/6170318/Tennessee/Committee-accepts-cooperative-purchasing-master-agreement-form-for-General-Services","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6170318-bc71c2867ab979c11e68f1e24c83af3d/orig.mp4?Expires=1776036939&Signature=PICqMSYvzXRd-DOOQYlZSChPypWizivTK5Wj0uq9AgdeH0kmQVTrW2JnTFFKtFKwsigM4VvuPLwucYwQ-hgHm3S7IDmmwjkxoa9-8SN4DuFnX-KxUlNWftPhsiNcoNxMb6yxo8hfHugq8ikb9wS95ssXp73VP8iW-egUTHDFW8gQI8SUIiOPGi5n64WuGAKVweS8as1bzf06Sfz5sL624y7WL8depgamG6g2SrGKlO4-MkzM8WtKqhQxXvOyzKn8UlaNIrVdZ6U7DNhBzxrNm7XX1s0t0DK-EOoInvNqEv400yYkCCWAW00811hqh54t0jLCbNcyhUFoAKwm7emsJQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Government Operations & Regulations Committee accepted the form of a cooperative purchasing master agreement intended for use by the Department of General Services.

Council discussion was brief and in support: Councilmember (Speaker 2) said, “I just like to say really appreciate operations stand down and and very much support of that license agreement for office space because they house 4 of our office workers.” A speaker who appeared to respond to the chair indicated readiness to speak but offered no substantive remarks that were recorded. A voice vote followed with no opposition recorded on the consent items.

The ordinance title on the agenda described the agreement as between the Metropolitan government and Davidson County acting by and through Human Resources and Operation Stand Down Tennessee for the use of office space.
