City secretary asks council to extend solicitation-permit processing time to 10 business days
Summary
City Secretary Shauna Atkinson said the city's background-check vendor changed and some records now take longer to process; the council approved extending the ordinance's processing allowance from 5 to 10 business days to accommodate those longer checks.
City Secretary Shauna Atkinson briefed the council on a proposed change to the solicitation permit ordinance, asking for the processing allowance to be extended from 5 to 10 business days because the municipality's background-check vendor changed and some applications with extended records now take longer to clear.
Atkinson said most applications still clear instantly or within 24 hours, but that an additional five business days would allow staff time to complete checks for applicants with longer records. The council voted to approve the ordinance change.
