OFFICE MEMORANDUM
To Mayor Stuart N. Smith and Members of the City DATE July 291 1969
Council
FROM James F. Bishop, City Attorney
SUBJECT Ordinance Ame) ding Chapter 24 of the Municipal Code
It has come to my attention that there is no provision
in the present Municipal Code to punish anyone found on the premises
where marijuana or other narcotics are being used, sold, or stored.
Accordingly, I am recommending the changes in the Municipal Code
to provide punishment for keeping a house or being found on the
premises where narcotics are stored, used, or sold. In order to
insert these at the logical point in the Municipal Code, it is
necessary to re-designate the present section 24-1035, frequenting
a house of ill repute. This is merely a re-designation of this
section and no change therein. The early passage of this proposed
ordinance would be appreciated, particularly by members of the
Police Department.
Respectfully presented,
James .' B is op
City Attorney
