Councilmember Lasman moved and Councilmember Ryan seconded to close the Public Hearing. Motion passed unanimously. Councilmember Lasman moved and Councilmember Ryan seconded to adopt ORDINANCE NO. 2008 -03 Amending the Regulation of Inoperable and/or Junk Vehicles. There was discussion on Section 19 -1302, specifically in relation to the verbiage about vehicles that may be on jacks, blocks or other supports, and whether this would have an effect on individuals' ability to repair vehicles on their property. Ms. Schleuning explained a provision was added to allow inoperable vehicles on private property for 48 hours, which was not previously included in the ordinance. In addition, the abatement notification procedure allows 10 days for the vehicle to be moved, and there would not be any time limit associated with vehicles stored inside a garage. Mr. Boganey noted the enforcement officer would have the discretion and authority to provide the amount of time that is reasonably necessary to complete the repairs on an inoperable vehicle. The minimum time allowed would be 10 days. It was noted that there is a need to balance the concerns of people that have tried to do their own auto repairs and the consequences of leaving junk cars and auto components in driveways. It was stressed if this ordinance is passed, it needs to be communicated to the residents how it will be administered and what the rules are. It was pointed out that this ordinance does not prevent residents from engaging in collector vehicle restoration, but removes the collector status as an excuse for storing junk vehicles. There was discussion on Section 19- 1304.5.d, specifically in relation to whether the assessment of administrative costs is allowed according to City Charter. Mr. LeFevere explained this section does not discuss an administrative fine or penalty; it allows the recovery of the City's cost, such as paying the towing company. These types of costs are currently being collected by the City for things like diseased tree removal and this issue is covered under Minnesota Statute 429. Councilmember O'Connor voted against the same. Motion passed. 9e. ORDINANCE RELATING TO ADMINISTRATIVE FINES; ADDING A NEW SECTION 12.13 TO THE BROOKLYN CENTER CITY CHARTER Mr. Boganey introduced the item, discussed the history, and stated the purpose of the proposed ordinance. He advised adoption of this ordinance requires a unanimous vote by the City Council. In the absence of a unanimous vote the matter is referred back to the Charter Commission, which has 03/24/08 -7- the authority to determine whether it wants to require or request that this item be placed on a special election for a referendum vote. It was noted that the administrative fine process will streamline things and will be a much quicker and likely less expensive process to administer the City's ordinances. Councilmember Lasman moved and Councilmember O'Connor seconded to open the Public Hearing. Motion passed unanimously. Councilmember Lasman moved and Councilmember Ryan seconded to close the Public Hearing. Motion passed unanimously. There was discussion on Section 12.13.a., Subdivision 1, specifically in relation to the third party hearing officer that would decide whether an administrative penalty should be imposed. It was suggested that the ordinance be tabled to allow for further discussion, as there does not seem to be unanimous support of the Council. Councilmember Lasman moved and Councilmember Yelich seconded to table an Ordinance Relating to Administrative Fines; Adding a New Section 12.13 to the Brooklyn Center City Charter. Councilmember O'Connor voted against the same. Motion passed.
