Although there have been amendments approved by the 102 council and state law changes impacting city regulations, this document has not been updated 103 since 1993. Therefore staff engaged in a project to have the code reprinted to include updated 104 language and all ordinance amendments since 1993. The process has involved an external 105 legal review of the code as well as an internal process that included input from department 106 directors and several city council work session reviews. Changes have been incorporated and 107 the code has been reprinted. If the code is approved, it will also be made available on-line. 108 109 The public hearing was opened. 110 111 There being no one present wishing to speak on this item, the public hearing was closed at 6:50 112 p.m. 1`113 114 Council Member Reinert moved to dispense with full reading of the ordinance.
