ACTION REQUEST (Brief Summary)
Consider and take action on Ordinance No. 2022-08, amending the City of Texas City's Code of Ordinances by adding a Mass Gathering Ordinance for large gatherings that are held inside the limits of the City of Texas City and providing for an Application Procedure, the issuance of a Special Event Permit and a Special Event Application Fee.
BACKGROUND
Currently the City of Texas City does not have an Ordinance in place that regulates the gathering of large groups of people within the City Limits. In order to protect the welfare of the residents of Texas City and the visitors of the City, a Mass Gathering Ordinance is recommended to regulate gatherings of one hundred fifty (150) people or more within the limits of the City of Texas City.
