This way the City <br /> can ensure that problems with things like traffic, parking, and nuisances are minimized. <br /> Transient Merchants and Peddlers <br /> A Transient merchant is someone that sells goods out of a trailer or something of the sort on a <br /> piece of property within the City. A peddler is someone that goes door to door most times and <br /> showcases items for sale. <br /> Transient merchants and peddlers are under the same requirements in the Municipal code. Staff <br /> has meet internally and have found that there are many items that are out of date in the code. <br /> Many cities regulate the location of where a transient merchant can be and how many are allowed <br /> in the City. In the ordinance it states that the peddlers and transient merchant licenses are <br /> required to be considered by the Council and published in the paper. Many cities have this as an <br /> administrative approval. The fees that are established for transient mechanists and peddlers <br /> currently do not cover the expense of staff time and publication of the notice. <br /> 2. CONCLUSION / RECOMMENDATION: <br /> It is in staff opinion that these ordinance be reviewed and updated. Staff recommends that the <br /> ordinances be forwarded to the ORC for updating. <br /> 2 <br />
