Council begins process to add fines and raise permit fee for golf cart ordinance
Summary
Mayor Eiffler asked for a "FINES" section to be added to the city's golf cart ordinance; Councilmember Johnson moved to start the amendment process and raise the golf cart permit fee to $50, and the motion passed unanimously.
The Reinbeck City Council moved to start the process of amending the city's golf cart ordinance to include a fines section and to increase the permit fee.
Mayor Jamie Eiffler said he would like a "FINES" section included in the ordinance. Councilmember Johnson moved to begin the ordinance-change process and to raise golf cart permit fees to $50; Councilmember Wambold seconded and the motion carried 5-0.
Why it matters: Adding a fines section would allow the city to define penalties tied to the golf cart ordinance; increasing the permit fee will raise the cost for residents who register golf carts under the new fee schedule once the ordinance is adopted.
Next steps: City staff will prepare ordinance language for additional readings and return it to the council for formal consideration.
