Council schedules two ordinances for second and final reading; no questions at work session
Summary
At a March 11 work session, the Wilkes-Barre City Council listed two ordinances for second and final reading — one establishing rules for mobile food facilities and a second amending fee provisions — and heard no substantive questions about either item.
The Wilkes-Barre City Council on March 11 placed two ordinances on the agenda for second and final reading and received no questions about either measure during the work session.
Miss Payne, a staff member, read the agenda summary, saying the first ordinance (No. 1 of 2025) would add Article 5 to Chapter 11 to regulate mobile food facilities and the second (Council No. 2 of 2025) would amend Article 6 of Chapter 28 of the Wilkes-Barre City Code of Ordinances, listed in the packet as “Fee Poration.”
The items were presented as routine agenda matters; no council member asked for discussion or clarification at the work session. The agenda listing did not include text changes or fiscal notes in the discussion portion of the transcript.
Because the work session record does not show a vote or final action on either ordinance, both remain scheduled for second and final reading at a subsequent formal meeting unless the council takes action later in the process. The packet titles and ordinance numbers are recorded here as they appeared in the meeting materials.
