Recommendation to declare ordinance amending the Long Beach Municipal Code by amending Section 5.46.060, relating to the public posting prohibited, read and adopted as read.  (Citywide)
It's a recommendation to amend the municipal code relating to the distribution of handbills or other printed materials or written matters of merchandise. Read the first time and lead over to the next regular meeting. Okay. There's been a motion and a second. Mr. City Attorney, do you want to kind of brief the council briefing on that? Certainly. Thank you. May remember as the city council, this this is strictly a cleanup item based upon recent case law decision. It has caused us to reexamine this particular section of the municipal code. And we have changed that to. Be in compliance with the recent case law. So we're eliminate a challenge. Excellent. I see no public comment on the item. Oh, there. Is. Please come forward. Just when you least expect it. Hi again, council members and Mr. Mayor, Gary Shelton once more. I appreciate all the work to our wonderful new city attorney does to keep us out of trouble on things like this. On this particular item, in looking at the discussion on your on your agenda packet, the front page of that, it mentions exactly what is being gutted out of this ordinance, which is, you know, the distributing or handing out a printed merchandise, advertising, so on and so forth. That's leaving the ordinance. And the ordinance is basically I'm I guess I'm stumbling because I'm having trouble understanding what it is prohibiting now. Whether it's requiring a permit to do all it says is that it's you need a permit to post a permit to post notices on public property. So the order and it's talked about things that were pretty obvious and but those won't hold over the people will look at this in the future to figure out what can I do. Won't won't quite. Understand. Whether it means putting a yard sale sign on a tree or whether it means like across the street, Bono's putting a a sandwich board out on the sidewalk or in a Victory Park public property, of course, or perhaps driving. I mean, strange things. Driving a bus down a city street with a sign on the side of it. These are notices and they're posted according to the there's no definitions. And so my initial thought was. The ordinance needs some. Explanation as to what posting and what notices would be defined as, but maybe even better is that you simply gut the whole thing and replace it with nothing and repeal it. I don't see how what we're left with is going to be enforceable. Thank you. Thank you. And the other public comment on the item. Casey None believe there's a motion on the floor. Mr. Clarke. Yes. And so please cast your vote. Motion carries eight votes. Okay, next item. Everyone needs a recommendation to declare an ordinance amending the dress code relating to real estate purchase contracts read and adopted as read.
