Update on Last Night's Metro Council Meeting

Illegal Dumping Ordinance
By a unanimous vote, the Metro Council voted to strengthen a section of Metro Code that deals with illegal dumping. Under the revised ordinance, any vehicle used while illegally dumping must be impounded for a period of either 6 or 12 months depending on the specific violation committed. Upon an appeal, the code enforcement board will have the ultimate authority to reduce the length of a vehicle’s impoundment. In addition to video surveillance, photographs or the metro official’s personal observation, officers can now accept sworn testimony by eyewitnesses. These changes strengthened the Police Department’s ability to impound vehicles used in illegal dumping and make it clearer to officers what should occur when they come upon someone in the act of dumping illegally.
Panhandling
The council also unanimously approved several amendments to the city’s panhandling ordinance, intended to clarify the distinction between aggressive and passive panhandling. The ordinance was amended to decriminalize passive panhandling by making it similar to receiving a traffic ticket. Additionally, because the court system has been unable to effectively collect fines associated with passive panhandling, the fine was reduced from $250 to $25. The changes to this ordinance also established additional locations where panhandling will be illegal:
· Within a crosswalk, street, road, or highway, unless doing so in accordance with LCMO Chapter 117.
· In a manner that impedes or blocks the flow of pedestrian traffic on a sidewalk or public right-of-way.
· Within 20 feet of entry or exits of a public entertainment venue.
