PUBLIC HEARING: BUSINESS LICENSE PROGRAM CHANGES Greta Utecht, Planning and Development Department, gave the staff report. She said that the City's general business license provisions were last re- vised in 1985. While these regulations have provided a good framework for the individual types of business licenses now issued by the City, some gener- al provisions need to be revised in order to reflect current business prac- tices, State laws, and local needs. Sections specific to detective and secu- rity agents and agencies also have come under scrutiny following recent staff experience with enforcement actions. All proposed revisions can be found in Chapter 3 of the Eugene Code. e MINUTES--Eugene City Council November 5, 1990 Page 6
