Council places parklets ordinance on second reading after short-title correction
Summary
At an April 13 special meeting the Jackson Town Council read Ordinance A amending parklets regulations and voted to place it on second reading after correcting a staff-report labeling error; the motion passed unanimously.
At a special meeting April 13, the Jackson Town Council read Ordinance A, an amendment to Chapter 12.1 (Parklets) of the town code and voted to place the measure upon second reading.
The clerk read the ordinance’s short title, then Councilor Speary moved to approve reading and Councilor Beeman seconded, after staff noted the agenda item should be listed as a second reading rather than first. "Is there a friendly amendment to change that to second reading?" the mayor asked; Councilor Speary agreed. The council then voted and the motion passed unanimously.
The correction was procedural: staff said the staff report was labeled incorrectly and Councilor Speary proposed the change to place the ordinance on second reading. No public comment was recorded on the item. The council did not debate the ordinance’s substance during the short procedural action.
The council meeting record shows the ordinance was placed on second reading with unanimous support. The council will return for a future meeting when the second-reading timeline and any public-hearing logistics will be set.
