e e e Councilor Wooten, stating that the work involved was temporary, asked why it would be necessary to recheck those individuals each time they worked. Chief Packard stated that he was surprised to hear any opposition to the code amendment, stating that it was the responsibility of the City to perform a minimal check on those individuals performing the security services for events attended by local citizens. Ms. Wooten asked if the fee could be established on a per check basis. Chief Packard said the check performed on the temporary personnel was primarily a check of existing records which could change on a weekly basis while the checks for Merchant Police I and II were more involved. He did not feel the $3 fee will cover the costs of performing the review. Councilor Holmer asked what consistency existed in the personnel used for the security services. Mr. Thompson estimated that he would use 60 to 70 individuals on a continuing basis to cover about 25 events during the year. In response to a question by Mr. Hansen regarding the $3 fee, Ms. Grondona stated that the license fee would lapse after 30 days. She added that an individual would no longer be considered a temporary employee if he or she worked more than seven days during a 30-day period. While he supported the records check process, Mr. Hansen felt that the ordinance needed some clarification. In response to a question by Ms. Wooten regarding Mr. Hansen's suggestion that the fee cover a 30-day period, Ms. Grondona stated that the suggestion could be incorporated administratively. Mr. Hansen commented that Section 2 of the ordinance did not clearly specify that intent.
