owner simply must tell them that they don’t have permission to enter without wearing a mask? They are not
required to bar or physically, you clarified to me in your response, they are not required, they are not
responsible for if that person forces theirway in. But they are expected to communicate that, that they
cannot do business with them per the Board of Health.
So | am sorry for that misunderstanding. | did think that Attorney Jette’s or whoever asked it question was
what is this whole amendment about. | didn’t realize that they were questioning the most recent change.
Alderman Dowd
Point of order, point of order. We are only discussing the addition ....the amendment which is the addition
of paragraph 17 and not the basic Ordinance. So we are only addressing what Attorney Bolton just
described as Paragraph 17 which has to do with the doctor's thing. None of the other parts are under
discussion at the moment.
Alderwoman Lu
Alright thank. Alright, well if | could just finish my comment is that | was offering that for the public as an
explanation of why this is a good idea. Thank you.
President Wilshire
Anyone else on the amendment?
Alderman Clemons
Yes thank you, briefly | won’t support the amendment because | believe it is an undo burden for folks to
have to go to get a doctor's note when they know their own health risk. |, quite frankly, don’t think itis a
private business owner or the City’s responsibility to look into other people’s healthcare decisions with their
doctor. Sol am going to vote “no” on this amendment.
