Council renews six-month suspension of city's Sunday sales prohibition
Summary
On second reading the council voted to renew a temporary six-month suspension of the city's blue-law restriction on Sunday sales; staff said the suspension must be renewed every six months.
On second reading Council considered Ordinance No. 2025-00007-00001 to temporarily suspend the city's prohibition on Sunday sales for another six months. Council members explained the suspension process is procedural and must be renewed semiannually; Alan (staff) confirmed the six-month statutory limitation. A motion to advance second reading was made and seconded, and council voted by voice to carry the motion. "We have to do it every 6 months and that's where the 'temporarily' comes in," a staff member said during the exchange.
The council took no additional amendments; the recorded outcome in the meeting transcript was "motion carries." The renewal keeps local retailers able to sell on Sundays for the next six-month period under the city's temporary suspension policy.
