CASS COUNTY GOVERNMENT MEMORANDUM RECEIVED TO: Cass County Commissioners NOV 2 5 1014 State's Attorney FROM: Birch P. Burdick ��1, ,I ASS COUNTY COMMISSION Cass County State's Attorney Birch P.Burdick DATE: November 25, 2014 Assistant State's RE: Ordinance Authorizing Sheriff to Police Public Events Attorneys: * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Mark R.Boening Tracy J.Peters I am enclosing an updated draft of the proposed ordinance which I Leah J.Reid eid A.Brady believe incorporates the intent of the changes moved by Commissioner d Kara Schmitz Olson Vanyo and approved by the Commission at your previous meeting. In Gary E.Euren general, the changes remove all events except the new ones the Sheriff Kimberlee J.Hegvik wishes to add, utilizes existing N.D.C.C. §53-02-08 for everything else Cherie L.Clark and modifies the "General Provisions" paragraph. As a matter of clarity, Tristan J.Van de Streek I explain in detail below the changes to the last draft you reviewed. Ryan J.Younggren Renata J.Selzer • Purpose: To this section I added a second sentence indicating Tanya Johnson Martinez the ordinance supplements the authority within N.D.C.C. Chapter §53-02. • Definitions: In this section I removed references to everything Victim/Witness except three new events (car race, car show and rodeo), I Coordinators: maintained the definition of "vehicle" because it is used in the description of car race and car show, and I added a definition for Brenda Olson-Wray "person" to be consistent with N.D.C.C. §53-02-01. The Debbie Taws i Lori Lawson reference to "public event" is gone altogether. All the other Lawson events (music festival, public concert, public dance and public dancing place) are addressed in N.D.C.C. §53-02-01. Check Division/ • General Provisions: The Commission voted to remove the Restitution: previously proposed ordinance language and replace it with the language in N.D.C.C. §53-02-08, but reference the three new Josi Schultz events. I did that in the updated draft, but I made a change to Charlotte Eversvik that language. Here's why: N.D.C.C. §53-02-08 refers to the sheriff "in any county". Because you are not empowered to Box 2806 implement an ordinance in other counties, I changed the language 211 Ninth Street South to refer to Cass County. Fargo,North Dakota 58108 For your convenience I am enclosing not only the updated draft, but the PH:701-241-5850 existing N.D.C.C. Chapter 53-02.
