TITLE

An Ordinance of the Mayor and City Council of the City of Maricopa, Arizona, amending Sections 8-2-4(3) and 8-2-4(7)(a) of the City Code of Maricopa regarding the submission of fingerprints related to Adult Oriented Business Applications and providing for severability and the effective date thereof.  Discussion and Action.

 

AGENDA ITEM DESCRIPTION

On December 18, 2018, City Council adopted a revised Chapter 8 related to business regulations which included provisions regarding operating an Adult Oriented Business within the City of Maricopa.  The provisions related to Adult Oriented Business Applications require the applicant to submit fingerprints but did not specifically state that the fingerprints would be submitted for a criminal background check.  City staff was contacted by the Arizona Department of Public Safety ("DPS") regarding the concerns of DPS and the FBI who oversee the fingerpringing and background check process.  The revisions set forth in this Ordinance are meant to address those concerns.
