Ordinance No. 2922 Re -introduction Sidewalk Vending Assistant City Manager Boatman provided background on Ordinance No. 2922 to establish regulations governing sidewalk vendors within City limits. He pointed out that in 2018, the California Legislature passed Senate Bill 946 which prohibits cities from banning sidewalk vending outright or from otherwise restricting sidewalk vendors in the public right-of-way and in public parks. The operation of sidewalk vendors has increased, with some vendors risking the health and safety of the public by creating traffic hazards and operating without appropriate health or food handling permits. On April 4, 2023, the City Council authorized Mayor Pro Tem Barich and Council Member Guzman -Lowery to meet as an ad hoc committee to discuss and review further modifications to Ordinance No 2922 as recommended by Maribel Nunez of the Inland Equity Community Land Trust and in partnership with ICIJ Coalition. The ad hoc committee suggested several revisions to Ordinance No. 2922, pertaining to the following sections: Section 12.45.030 Stationary Sidewalk Vending, Section 12.45.050 Roaming Sidewalk Vending and Section 12.45.060 Administrative Fines.

They stressed the importance of education and requested fees be lowered. Evan Sanford, Executive Director of the Redlands Chamber of Commerce, stated that overall, the Chamber members supported the ordinance and were pleased the City would establish a baseline of rules and regulations. Andrea Ramirez thought the ordinance was fair for vendors as well as the public, and she emphasized the need for regulations to keep the community safe. Andy Hoder wondered if vendors were able to appeal citation fines. Mr. Boatman added there was no appeal process, but vendors could submit a hardship waiver form. Each Council Member offered their thoughts and perspectives on the ordinance and agreed that education would be key to the success of the program. Topics discussed included, the fee structure, distance requirements for vendors from schools and the rail, enforcement guidelines and requirements for the display of permitting paperwork. Council Members thanked the ad hoc committee members for their cooperative efforts to refine the ordinance. At 9:59 P.M., a brief recess was called to allow City Attorney Garcia and Assistant City Manager Boatman the time to add the Council's recommended revisions to the ordinance. The meeting reconvened at 10:12 P.M. and Ms. Garcia listed the technical revisions of the sections affected by the changes so these could be incorporated into the motion. On motion of Council Member Jenna Guzman -Lowery, seconded by Mayor Pro Tempore Paul Barich, the City Council unanimously re -introduced, by roll call vote, Ordinance No. 2922 adding Chapter 12.45 and amending Chapter 12.44 to the Redlands Municipal Code to establish regulations governing sidewalk vendors within City limits, as amended, incorporating all revisions identified by the City Attorney; and determined that the ordinance is exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the State's guidelines implementing the California Environmental Quality Act.
