Councilmember Musgrove commented that adding Fire Marshall to the definition would help <br />because then it is not just the Planning Department but puts another set of eyes on a potentially <br />hazardous situation. <br /> <br />Councilmember Howell referenced the inspections and questioned how it compares with <br />businesses that have brick and mortar store fronts. <br /> <br />Zoning Code Enforcement Officer Raines replied the difference with a store front they walk in and <br />ask questions, with a residential property a letter or phone call is sent first in preparation. <br /> <br />Councilmember Heineman referenced number six under “Death or a Move” and questioned the <br />phrase “automatically terminated” as the first course of action. <br /> <br />Zoning Code Enforcement Officer Raines replied this was not a change but was kept from the <br />existing code. She was not sure what the initial rationale behind it was. <br /> <br />Councilmember Riley replied it makes sense because it keeps the permit with a person with a <br />specific activity not a property. <br /> <br />Councilmember Heineman questioned if it should read “shall be automatically renewed if a family <br />member applies.” What he didn’t want was for someone to have a permit and have family left <br />wondering if the permit would be renewed in the event of the death of the permit holder. <br /> <br />Mayor Kuzma stated since most often a husband and wife would be in business together so if one <br />passes he didn’t see a need to add “reapply for a permit.” <br /> <br />Councilmember Heineman stated he didn’t want to see the permit automatically terminated until <br />they reapply. He questioned if that was the case. He suggested changed the wording from “may” <br />to “shall” reissue a permit. <br /> <br />City Administrator Ulrich asked if changing the wording from “may” to “shall” will satisfy the <br />concerns or would Councilmember Heineman like Staff to work more on the wording. <br /> <br />Councilmember Heineman replied the second half of the paragraph would have to be deconflicted. <br /> <br />City Administrator Ulrich commented that wording could be worked on to include an automatic <br />transfer to a legitimate heir or someone who is taking charge of the property. <br /> <br />Councilmember Heineman replied as long as they reapply it will be granted. <br /> <br />City Administrator Ulrich replied that wording along those lines could be worked on if the Council <br />agreed. <br /> <br />The consensus of the Council was to make further revisions to wording for clarification. <br /> <br />City Council Work Session / January 25, 2022 <br />Page 4 of 23 <br /> <br />
