1. A Resolution repealing Special Ordinance No. 804 establishing a policy governing special events in the City of Moline, Illinois, and formation of a special event committee; and authorizing the establishment of a new special event policy. (Janine Hollembaek Parr, City Clerk)
Explanation: The public health, safety, and welfare of the residents of Moline require the regulation of special events within the City. Accordingly, special events involving the use of City streets, parking lots, and other City owned properties, as well as City staff support, may be permitted in the City only upon approval of the Special Event Committee and/or Mayor and City Council. Special Ordinance No. 804 establishing a policy governing special events in the City and the formation of a special event committee was adopted March 1997, and the policy is outdated. The Special Event Committee seeks Council approval of a new special event policy detailing guidelines and processes to aid event coordinators wishing to hold events within the City. Additional documentation attached.

2. An Ordinance amending Chapter 28, “STREETS AND SIDEWALKS,” of the Moline Code of Ordinances, Section 28-2108, “DUMPSTERS,” by repealing said section in its entirety and enacting in lieu thereof one new Section 28-2108 dealing with the same subject matter and “DIVISION 3. PERMITS,” Section 28-2300, “WHEN REQUIRED,” by repealing said section in its entirety and enacting in lieu thereof one new Section 28-2300 dealing with the same subject matter. (Scott Hinton, City Engineer)
Explanation: The City of Moline revised Chapter 28 of the Moline Code of Ordinances in 2004 to require that, among other things, the owner of a dumpster was required to acquire a permit from the building division prior to placing the dumpster in the public right-of-way. The dumpster companies found this permitting process to be onerous and burdensome and chose to not deliver dumpsters in Moline rather than acquire a permit for every dumpster. As such, that Code requirement was not enforced and dumpsters continued to be available to residents and property owners who needed to place them in the right-of-way. Staff proposes to revise the Code to require an annual, $200 licensing agreement to use the public right-of-way in lieu of a permit for each dumpster placement. The licensing agreement will include insurance and indemnification requirements to protect the City. The current dumpster safety requirements will remain as protective measures to the travelling public.
