Summary
Council adopted Ordinance No. 2026-1620 renaming and amending Part 3, Chapter 2, Section 3-209 (Nonintoxicating Beverages) and voted to declare it an emergency; motions and seconds were recorded and the vote was unanimous.
The Dewey City Council voted April 6 to approve Ordinance No. 2026-1620, which the minutes describe as "Renaming and Amending Part 3, Chapter 2 Nonintoxicating Beverages Section 3-209." Council then voted to declare the ordinance an emergency.
Ralph Stafford moved to approve the ordinance and Alvin Yearout seconded the main motion; Stafford later moved to declare the ordinance an emergency and James Cook seconded that motion. The minutes record aye votes from James Cook, Stan Barron, Ralph Stafford, Alvin Yearout and Mayor Tom Hays on both motions; no nays were recorded.
The minutes do not include the ordinance text or an explanation of the substantive changes to Section 3-209. The record shows the council treated the change as urgent by adopting an emergency clause but does not specify the operational effect or effective date beyond the meeting action.
