ORDINANCE NO. 862
ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF UKIAH
REGULATING OUTDOOR SALES ESTABLISHMENTS
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF UKIAH FINDS AS FOLLOWS:
1. Businesses that do not operate exclusively from within buildings
constructed in accordance with the City building and other code requirements
produce unique impacts on the City, including the following:
a. Businesses that operate on private-property produce unique
aesthetic and traffic impacts on the community;
b. Such businesses cannot provide employees the same comforts
and sanitation facilities as provided by businesses operating from within
permanent buildings;
c. Ascertaining that such businesses have complied with applica-
ble City code requirements places a heavier burden on City departments
concerned with the enforcement thereof than do established businesses
~
operating from within permanent buildings.
2. Such businesses also enrich the economic and cultural life of the
community, provided adequate consideration is given to their unique impacts
on the community.

to these businesses, when they seek to operate within the City of Ukiah.
