Council advances golf-cart and UTV code changes and schedules public hearing on consolidated code
Summary
Council moved the golf-cart ordinance on first reading with adjustments, waived further readings and adopted changes to the UTV ordinance on final reading, and set a public hearing next month to consider a consolidated code of ordinances.
Carter Lake’s council discussed several code updates and advanced multiple ordinances.
Golf carts: The council moved the proposed amendment to the golf-cart ordinance on first reading, adopting changes to clarify that operation must conform to the posted speed limit and simplifying permit-term language. The motion to move the ordinance on first reading carried by roll call.
UTVs: Council reviewed the previously discussed UTV ordinance adjustments, agreed no further changes were needed and voted to waive the remaining reading and approve the ordinance on final reading.
Code consolidation: Staff presented a proposed consolidated code of ordinances (paper copies provided to council) and recommended placing a single official copy in the clerk’s office and publishing notice for a public hearing next month. Council set the public hearing date and discussed that an online, searchable version would be available after adoption but carries an annual subscription cost discussed in the meeting.
The council recorded first-reading votes on the golf-cart and code-publication matters and adopted the UTV ordinance on second/final reading.
