Council adopts updated smoke‑shop ordinance after clerical language changes
Summary
The borough adopted amendments to the smoke‑shop ordinance with three clerical/language edits (including adding Portuguese in a section) and passed it by roll call vote after staff incorporated the changes into the motion.
The board considered revisions to borough code sections regulating smoke shops and related establishments. Staff identified three edits — a clerical pluralization, a language clarification and an addition to Section 12‑1‑30 to include Portuguese along with Spanish — and the chair included those changes in the motion. The board proceeded to a roll‑call vote after the clerk read the adjusted language and the measure passed with affirmative votes recorded in sequence.
Speaker 2 framed the edits as clerical and language adjustments; the mayor then called for the roll call. Those voting in favor were recorded during the roll call sequence. No amendments beyond the three clerical changes were proposed on the floor.
