Body

DRAFTER'S ANALYSIS:  This ordinance prevents a child sex offender, who is required to register under state statute as a sex offender, from residing within 2000 feet of a school or community center.  This ordinance authorizes the City Attorney to commence a nuisance action against an individual who violates this ordinance and does not move within 30 days after receiving notice of the violation.  This ordinance also establishes a bail deposit for violations.
