Item No. Staff Report No. Meeting Date: June 28, 1999 Type of Business: PH &CB WK: Work Session; PH: Public Hearing; CA: Consent Agenda; CB: Council Business City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Honorable Mayor & City Council From: James Ericson, Planning Associate Item Title/Subject: Public Hearing and Second Reading of Ordinance 628, an ordinance amending Chapter 1001 of the Mounds View Building Code pertaining to Contractors Licenses and work requiring a City license. Date of Report: June 24, 1999 Background: The Council introduced this ordinance at its last regular meeting on June 14, 1999, approving the first reading. The public hearing for this ordinance will be in conjunction with the second reading. Analysis: There are no changes to this ordinance from the first reading. The ordinance changes the licensing period to run from January 1 to December 31 annually instead of July 1 through June 30. This change will allow contractors doing work in the City to get a contractors license that will cover the entire building season rather than requiring a contractor to get two licenses (the initial license and a renewal) for one building season. The other change accomplished by this ordinance is to remove references to "Fire Protection" and "Roofing" under Section 1001.03, Subd 2, Work Requiring License. These types of work are now licensed through the state and as such should not be listed with other work requiring a City license. If the contractor has a state license to do general residential or general commercial work, a city license is also not required. Recommendation: Approve the second reading of Ordinance 628, an ordinance amending Chapter 1001 of the Mounds View Building Code pertaining to Contractors Licenses and work requiring a City license.
