For Meeting of: June 18, 2019 |
| | | | | | | | | ITEM TITLE: | Discussion of potential amendments to the Yakima Municipal Code, including adding the definition of “inoperable” as the term relates to junk vehicles | | SUBMITTED BY: | Brooke Goosman, Senior Assistant City Attorney |
| SUMMARY EXPLANATION: | | Recently the HCNB Committee considered issues concerning the abandoned and junk vehicle provisions of the Yakima Municipal Code. Committee discussion included input from City staff and community members interested in potential revisions to the present ordinances. Following those discussions the Committee’s recommendation was to take no action to amend the present ordinances. The same issues were raised during two City Council Business meetings and following those discussions the Council requested that the issues addressed by the Committee be presented to the full City Council for the Council’s consideration. The attached documents provide some background on the previous Committee discussions, as well as present a potential revision to the City’s Ordinance to provide a definition of the term “inoperable vehicle”, which was also part of the past Committee discussions. |
