MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />March 27, 1991 <br />The City Attorney reported that he would prepare the <br />final revision of the Ordinance as well as a Summary of <br />the Ordinance and resolution approving the Summary for <br />adoption by the Council at their next meeting. <br />PAWN SHOP The City Attorney presented the revisions to the <br />ORDINANCE proposed Pawn Shop Ordinance as were discussed at the <br />last Council meeting. The revisions include the <br />requirement that an existing pawn shop must apply for a <br />license within 30 days of adoption of the Ordinance, <br />the license must be obtained within 60 days otherwise <br />the operation must cease, and the pawn shop would be <br />required to comply with the requirements of the <br />Ordinance within 60 days after the Ordinance's <br />effective date. <br />Scalze pointed out the license fees being charged by <br />other cities, and felt that the City's proposed fee was <br />too low.
