Council pulls vendor permit fee-waiver item from public hearing to allow staff revisions
Summary
Council removed item 3 — a proposed vendor permit fee-waiver measure — from the public hearing portion of the Sept. 11 agenda to permit staff to revise the proposal; members asked that the item return within two meetings and noted that a new 30-day public comment period will begin when it returns as a resolution.
The Sierra Vista City Council voted on Sept. 11 to remove item 3 from the public hearing portion of the agenda so staff can revise portions of the proposal before the public comment period begins.
A council member said parts of the proposal relating to vendor permit fee waivers were “inappropriate” for public hearing in their current form and suggested staff confer internally and bring back a revised draft. Staff said the revision could take a few weeks and that when the item returns as a resolution the city will start a new 30-day public comment period. One council member asked that staff return the item within two meetings; staff agreed to do so.
The motion to remove item 3 was properly moved and seconded and passed on the record; the mayor called the vote and announced the motion carried. The transcript records the action and discussion but does not identify the mover or second by name in the public record for this item.
Effectively, the council paused public consideration of the vendor permit fee-waiver measure and directed staff to refine the language for future public review and formal action.
