RE: Ordinance No. 1236 — An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Vernon Amending Section 17.16 to Chapter 17 of the Vernon Municipal Code to Modify and Clarify Rules and Regulations for Camping Within the City of Vernon and Repealing All Ordinances or Parts Thereof in Conflict Therewith Transmitted herewith is a copy of Ordinance No. 1236 referenced above, which was approved by City Council on August 16, 2016. Thank you. Attachment c: Ordinance No. 1236 STAFF REPORT e e P/a/& RECEIVED JUL 25 2016 CITY CLERK'S OFFICE STAFF REPORT VERNON POLICE DEPARTMENT DATE: August 2, 2016 TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members RECEIVED JUL 0 5 2015 CITY ADMINISTRATION FROM: Daniel Calleros, Chief of Police V RE: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 17.16 TO CHAPTER 17 OF THE VERNON MUNICIPAL CODE TO MODIFY AND CLARIFY RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR CAMPING WITHIN THE CITY OF VERNON AND REPEALING ALL ORDINANCES OR PARTS THEREOF IN CONFLICT THEREWITH Recommendation A. Find that this Ordinance is exempt from California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") review, because the action proposed is administrative and related to general policy that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment, and therefore does not constitute a "project" as defined by CEQA Guidelines section 15378; and B. Approve the first reading, and adopt at a subsequent meeting, an ordinance amending Section 17.16 of Chapter 17 of the Vernon Municipal Code to 1) modify and clarify the language in the Camping Ordinance, and 2) encompass, among other situations, camping in recreational vehicles. Background Over the past several months police personnel have noted a spike in incidents of homeless individuals using public areas for personal use. In reviewing the City Ordinances related to the use of public areas, we have identified a few gaps in coverage and areas that could be strengthened to ensure consistent and fair application of the laws. Activities associated with the use of public areas may become disturbing to residents and businesses and could contribute to a loss of access and enjoyment of public places. In addition, these types of activities might enhance a sense of fear, intimidation, and disorder. The proposed ordinance will enhance current prohibition of camping on public areas and further define prohibition and storage of personal property in such areas. Fiscal Impact This amendment to the Vernon Municipal Code has no budgetary impact. Attachment(s) 1.
