CASS COUNIY GOVERNMENT ..I.. To: From: County Coordinator Date: Bonnie Johnson Re: MEMO County Commissioners Bonnie Johnson June 24, 2004 New Cass County Ordinances ------------------------------------------------------------ From time to time, the Cities of Fargo and West Fargo adopt an ordinance dealing with a health or safety issue that they bring to the county for consideration. When we adopt the same ordinance, it effectively eliminates the "sprawl" of unregulated health or safety problems beyond the cities jurisdiction. Both Fargo and West Fargo have recently adopted two ordinances that regulate public swimming pools and body art establishments. I am enclosing a memo received today from the Fargo Cass Board of Health. If the Board decides to move forward with similar ordinances, I would ask that you vote to have the state's attorney obtain both ordinances from the City of Fargo or West Fargo, draft the ordinance and have the first reading on August 2nd. Publication would follow, and the second reading would be set in early September. Commissioner Vern Bennett is the county's representative on the Board of Health. In my absence, I would suggest any questions be referred to Commissioner Bennett. SUGGESTED MOTION: Move that the State's Attorney draft ordinances similar to the cities of Fargo and West Fargo regulating public swimming pools and body art establishments, and to schedule the ordinances for first reading on August 2, 2004.
