Assistant General Counsel Stephen Durden asked that 2015-214 (amending Ordinance  Code Chapter 685 regarding prohibited activities for sexual offenders and sexual predators) be taken up early in the meeting so that he can be present to address the bill before leaving for another meeting at 9:30 a.m.

 

2015-213 (amending Ordinance Code Chapter 28 – Boating to allow for swimming by authorized City permit): Deputy General Counsel Peggy Sidman gave a brief background of the issue and noted that it is a permanent amendment to the Code and not a one-time waiver for a particular event coming up later in the year, which sparked the discussion and the proposal for the amendment.
