RESOLUTION ____ CITY COUNCIL CITY OF NEW BRIGHTON RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING PUBLICATION OF ORDINANCE NO. 874 BY TITLE AND SUMMARY WHEREAS, the city council of the City of New Brighton has adopted Ordinance No. 873, an ordinance to amend the New Brighton zoning ordinance by creating temporary use regulations; and WHEREAS, the ordinance is lengthy; and WHEREAS, Minnesota Statutes, section 412.191, subd. 4, allows publication by title and summary in the case of lengthy ordinances or those containing charts or maps; and WHEREAS, the City Council believes that the following summary would clearly inform the public of the intent and effect of the ordinance. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of New Brighton, that the City Clerk shall cause the following summary of Ordinance No. 874 be published in the official newspaper in lieu of the entire ordinance: Public Notice The City Council of the City of New Brighton has adopted Ordinance No. 874, an ordinance establishing temporary use regulations within the City of New Brighton. Given the unprecedented challenges facing the City’s residents and businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic, the City must be nimble and be able to quickly respond to the needs of those we serve. To that end, Ordinance 874 allows for the identification of “temporary uses” that can be administratively reviewed and approved by staff. The specific temporary uses that can utilize this approval option must be identified by the City Council via resolution. At the present time, these regulations are needed to allow a quick response to requests from the business community to help them be successful in their re-opening efforts. Without these new provisions, the City would have no mechanism to fast-track such reviews. The full ordinance text is available for inspection at City Hall during regular business hours, and will be emailed or sent to any party upon request. Mayor Valerie Johnson
