Committee advances Chapter 90 harassment amendment to align city code with state and federal rules
Summary
Committee moved an amendment to Chapter 90 (Article 7) of the Ithaca City Code — updating harassment provisions to conform with state and federal regulations — to the council voting meeting; the item passed out of committee unanimously.
The Committee of the Whole voted unanimously to advance an amendment to Chapter 90 of the Ithaca City Code that modifies Article 7 on harassment to bring the city code into alignment with state and federal regulations.
Assistant City Attorney Muskin joined the meeting to take questions from council; no substantive questions were raised during the committee discussion and the item was moved to the council’s voting meeting for final consideration.
Why it matters: the administration described the change as a technical update to ensure municipal code provisions mirror applicable higher-level legal requirements.
Next steps: the amendment will appear on the council’s voting agenda for final action; the administration and assistant city attorney will be available for questions at that meeting.
