Consideration of an Ordinance of the City of Milton, Georgia to Amend Chapter 4, Alcoholic Beverages, Sections 4-52 and 4-533 of the Code of the City of Milton, Georgia. ORDINANCE NO. 18-06-360 (Agenda Item No. 18-160) (First Presentation at May 21, 2018 Regular City Council Meeting) (Sarah LaDart, Economic Development Manager) Regular Meeting of the Milton City Council Monday, June 4, 2018 at 6:00 pm Page 6 of 9 Sarah LaDart, Economic Development Manager We would like to propose making a few changes to section 4-52 which is the advertising fee that the city charges. Fulton County used to require this fee, however, they no longer require it. It is a $200 fee that any business that is applying for any type of alcohol license is required to pay to advertise both in the newspaper and for the big yard sign placed in front of the business. The city makes a minimal amount on this fee depending upon how much the ad costs. We are recommending removing this charge. Section 4-533 pertains to the open container maps which have already been approved. When we expanded the open container areas on the maps, specifically the Birmingham Crossroads area, we included the maps for your approval but the actual language in the ordinance did not include C-1 and Mixed Use. This is to allow the language in the ordinance to match the maps that have already been approved. Motion and Vote: Councilmember Kunz moved to approve Agenda Item No. 18-160. Councilmember Bentley seconded the motion. The motion passed (5-0). Councilmember Longoria was absent from the meeting. 2.

Motion and Vote: Councilmember Bentley moved to approve Agenda Item No. 18-161. Councilmember Kunz seconded the motion. The motion passed (5-0). Councilmember Longoria was absent from the meeting. 3. Consideration of an Ordinance to Revise the City's Animal Control Ordinance to Allow for the Application and Enforcement of the Fulton County Rabies and Animal Control Ordinances; to Provide for the Repeal of Conflicting Ordinances; to provide for an Effective Date; and for Other Lawful Purposes. ORDINANCE NO. 18-06-362 (Agenda Item No. 18-162) (First Presentation at May 21, 2018 Regular City Council Meeting) (Ken Jarrard, City Attorney) Regular Meeting of the Milton City Council Monday, June 4, 2018 at 6:00 pm Page 7 of 9 Ken Jarrard, City Attorney This item pertains to the Animal Control ordinances that govern in the City of Milton. The city has its own Animal Control ordinance, however, we are in an intergovernmental agreement with Fulton County to enforce their ordinance within the city limits. They want to enforce the Fulton County ordinance, not the city's ordinance. Therefore, the city has to adopt Fulton County's Animal Control ordinance. Motion and Vote: Councilmember Kunz moved to approve Agenda Item No. 18-162. Councilmember Bentley seconded the motion. The motion passed (5-0). Councilmember Longoria was absent from the meeting. 4.
