Subject: CITY COUNCIL ITEM FOR THE JULY 15, 2013, CITY COUNCIL
MEETING— REVIEW OF HUNTINGTON BEACH MUNICIPAL
CODE, CHAPTER 9 AND RECOMMENDATIONS
STATEMENT OF ISSUE:
The Huntington Beach City Council recently repealed two sections of Chapter 9 from
the Huntington Beach Municipal Code. These sections were found to be outdated and
no longer relevant. Specifically, Sections HBMC 9.28 — Pinball Machines and HBMC
9.60 — Hypnotism, have been repealed by the City Council.
Based on this action, the Police Department conducted a comprehensive review of
Chapter 9 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code in its entirety. The review was
handled by the Executive Division, under the direction of the Chief of Police, with input
from units that included Vice and Intelligence, Directed Enforcement Team, Special
Enforcement Team, and the Aero Unit,
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
As a result of the review and in an effort to update Chapter 9 of the Huntington Beach
Municipal Code, we propose the City Attorney prepare an ordinance to repeal the
following sections that are outdated and no longer necessary:
• HBMC 9.24.090-- Card Games
• HBMC 9.44.015 — Regulation of Alcohol Consumption on or about Independence
Day
® HBMC 9.84.070 D (i),(ii),(iii) and (iv) Alcohol Use Permit Requirements.
