Council asks manager to draft a Tonkawa-specific golf cart/UTV ordinance
Summary
City Attorney Lee Stout reported he reviewed sample Golf Cart/UTV ordinances from four towns; the council suggested City Manager Nick Payne have an ordinance drafted specifically for Tonkawa rather than adopting another town's language wholesale.
City Attorney Lee Stout told the council he was reviewing sample golf cart and UTV ordinances from four other towns to determine what would work best for Tonkawa.
Council members suggested that, rather than adopting a sample ordinance verbatim, staff should draft an ordinance tailored to local needs. The minutes record that the council suggested City Manager Nick Payne have an ordinance drafted specifically for Tonkawa.
The minutes do not include draft language, an implementation timeline, or any motion to introduce the ordinance for formal consideration; the entry is a direction for staff work rather than a council enactment. Further steps would include a drafted ordinance, legal review, public notice and a formal vote if the city moves forward.
