Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council Monday, June 19, 2017 Page 14 it different, this was simply my decision and Jolm's going through it and looking at it and saying let's take 3 x 3. We picked it, but if you want to pick 5 x 5, 10 x 10, 1 x 1, as long as we apply it across the boarq. I think you ought to have it on at least two readings. Ordinance Review did recommend it be adopted. Dr. Parker stated, we thoroughly reviewed it. The Law Director as well as Mr. Marrelli discussed the issues at hand and why we were doing this. We did approve as written. Obviously if Council would like to make changes, that's fine as well. My only concern with bringing it up was to make sure whatever needed to be done was done before any election season. Council President Saponaro stated, because we like when our Ordinances can go through three readings, we certainly will allow this to go through that process. At our next Caucus, I would hope that everyone would have read the Ordinance at that point. Let's have a discussion and see if there's any changes or anything that needs to occur at that point. Obviously we have open portion at the next Council meeting so we can also discuss that there if anyone from the public has an opinion. Ordinance No. 2017-29 was moved to Second Read. Mr. Diemert stated, Mr. President, if you would prefer to just reinove this [the next item] from the agenda or would you rather have it defeated? It's just a matter of preference. Council President Saponaro stated, we can do either/or. Right? Mr. Diemert stated, if we did not pass the prohibition, we had this as an optibn. I am going to recommend you defeat this as you adopted the prohibition. To use up the number, we might as well just defeat it. First Reading of Ordinance No. 2017-30, entitled, "An Emergency Ordinance adopting a moratorium on applications for, and the granting of, zoning certificates for any building, structure, use or change of use that would enable the cultivation, processing, distribution or sale of inedical inarijuana for an additional period of 180 days in order to allow the Village to review applicable State and local laws and regulations relating to such uses, and adopting a prohibition on the cultivation, processing, distribution or sale of medical marijuana should regulations not be enacted by the expiration . of the moratorium."
