FEB-19-21302 l<l' Iil6 LEAGLE CF I'N C I TI ES The form ortbis model ordinance is that used by Statutory aues as required by Minnesota Statutes i 412.191, subd. 4. A home rule charter often contains provisions concerning bow the city may enact OI'dinances. Home rule charter cities should consult their clIIuWr and city attorney before adopdna this ordinance in order to ensure that charter provlsfons are complied with. Statutory cities may pubUsh a summary of lengthy ordinances Instead ot the complete ordinance, as provided by Minnesota Statutes ~ 412, subd. 4, but the summary must JDMt the requirements otMlnnesota Statutes I 331A.Ol, subcl.l0. In order to tully Inform the pUblic: ot the nature of any conduct that is prohibited, portions of the summary set out the provisions of the ordinance in greater detail than those dealing with !he liquor Uc:ensing process. A SU"ested SI1D1lD.lU'Y of this ordinance with Instructions for Its adoption and public:etion follows the model ordinance. Because this ordinance will affect existlne I1quor licensees, a copy of tbe proposed ordinance should be mal1ed to each licensee alooll with a notice of the hearing on the ordinance In order to try to make them aware of the conteui$ of the proposed ordinance and to give them an opportunity to make their ~eill's known. 11- aues which clo not have a mlQl\clp~ liquor store should nJtadopt those sections ot '1\ this model ordmance deallng with municipal liquor stores. o. J(. Because of lntemal cross references, SectIons 29, 30 and 31 should retain their numbering In the adopted ordlnance even if SecUoDll 23 to 28 dealine with muniCipal liquor stores are deleted. If Sections 23 to 28 are not adopted. the ordlnanc. should c:ontaln a provillion to reach "SectfOIJS 23 to 28 are reserved for futunl use." This is SO that the reader of the ordinance wl11 oot be confused by the absence or these sections. P.<l3/24 2
