Title
Amending Sections 23.07(10) and 24.12(8) of the Madison General Ordinances to increase penalty range amounts for Unlawful Trespass and Menacing or Aggressive Panhandling Prohibited.
Body
DRAFTER'S ANALYSIS: This amendment eliminates the penalty ranges for 1st, 2nd and 3rd offenses of Unlawful Trespass and establishes a penalty range of $50 to $500 regardless of what number of offense occurs. The bail deposit remains the same. This amendment also increases the penalty range for Menacing or Aggressive Panhandling from $200 to $500. Currently bail deposits are authorized under MGO Section 1.08 for a 3rd offense of this ordinance to be written at an amount of $300. This change insures the penalty range is in conformity with the available bail deposits.
