There may be some minimal impact on General Fund revenues derived from fines.
Title
Amending Section 1.08(3)(a) of the Madison General Ordinances to add a bail deposit amount for violations of Section 10.056, amending 1.08(4) to add cross-references to the list of ordinances that can be enforced by the Neighborhood Preservation and Inspection Division, amending 10.056(11) to authorize the Superintendent of Parks to shut down a street use event in progress for violating conditions of the Street Use Permit, and amending 10.056(12)(d) to remove the word “knowingly.”
Body
DRAFTER’S ANALYSIS: This amendment creates a bail deposit for section 10.056, the Street Use Permit ordinance, so that violations of this ordinance may be enforced by citation. The Police Department and Parks Division staff are currently authorized to enforce violations of the Street Use ordinance. This ordinance also authorizes the Special Event Coordinator to shut down an event in progress for violations of conditions of the Street Use Permit, or for specific vending violations that are not allowed during the event (such as commercial sales and solicitations on Library Mall or sales of non-homemade or handcrafted goods on the Mall/Concourse) and removes the word “knowingly” from the section creating a violation for participating in an activity for which a street use permit is required. This ordinance also makes editorial corrections: adding the Urban Design and Landmarks sections to the list of ordinances enforceable by citation by the Neighborhood Preservation and Inspection Division and adding cross-references to other ordinances NPID is already authorized to enforce.
