Committee recommends code cleanups moving weights-and-measures to Clerk and BZA secretary duties to Community Development coordinator
Summary
Two ordinance amendments were recommended: one to move administration of weights-and-measures and business licensing to the Village Clerk's Office, and another to assign the Board of Zoning Appeals secretary role to the Community Development administrative coordinator (with the clerk as backup). Both recommendations passed at committee.
The committee recommended two administrative code amendments intended to align department responsibilities with current practice.
Item D amends Germantown Municipal Code Section 12.26 to move weights-and-measures licensing and related business licensing duties from the Community Development Department to the Village Clerk's Office. The item came from the Clerk's Office as a cleanup because business licensing is primarily handled by the clerk. The committee moved and approved the recommendation without discussion.
Item E amends the code related to the Board of Zoning Appeals (section referenced in the packet) to designate the Community Development administrative coordinator as the board secretary; the Clerk would fill the role if that coordinator position is vacant or the coordinator designates another person. Trustee Jan Miller asked for the name of the administrative coordinator; staff identified the coordinator as Deb in Community Development. The committee moved and approved the recommended change and will forward both ordinance amendments to the Village Board.
