City lawyer to revise Ordinance 9 on hunting, conceal-and-carry; council schedules review
Summary
Council directed city attorney Christina Benson to revise Ordinance 9 to clarify hunting and conceal-and-carry provisions and will review the updated ordinance at the December meeting. Kinney suggested expanding prohibitions on city property.
The Pine Springs City Council instructed the city attorney to revise Ordinance 9 after council members described parts of the ordinance as vague.
Christina Benson told the council that state statutes should be reviewed while updating the rule; sections 2 and 6 were cited by councilmembers as unclear. Kinney proposed prohibiting firearms and camping on city property as part of the revisions. Mayor Christensen moved to have Christina Benson revise Ordinance 9 and present the revisions at the December meeting; Councilmember Dahl seconded and the motion passed unanimously (24-109).
Benson will return with proposed language and statutory references for the council’s review. The council did not take a final vote on any substantive prohibitions at the Nov. 12 meeting; it voted only to request the revision and further review at the next meeting.
