written warning requirement, but | think the Police Department probably would be able to track fairly easily
first warning and then any subsequent warning if folks have a concern about that.
President Wilshire
Thank you, Alderman Tencza.
Alderwoman Kelly
Clarification please?
President Wilshire
Alderwoman Kelly?
Alderwoman Kelly
Alderman Tencza, are you saying that they wouldn’t necessarily need to have a written to do the protocol
you just suggested?

President Wilshire
Alderwoman Kelly, what do you think about the written first offense if as the attorney stated, they are not

Alderman O’Brien
Thank you — question to Corporate Counsel through the Chair if | may. What does, in this type of
circumstance, what does a written warning actually mean? | hate to say it like in St. Peter's Grammar
School, is it part of your permanent record? But the thing is will the Police compile this? So if a stop
received 2 or 3 of these, like with motor vehicles if you get a warning that is on record within Motor

That being said, | did not care for the amendment to make the first offense a warning. | think we need to
strike a balance where people will have to follow this. So | would like to move to amend and make the first
offense a written warning and the second a $100.00 fine.
MOTION BY ALDERWOMAN KELLY TO FURTHER AMEND O-20-018 FOR THE FIRST OFFENSE
RESULTS IN A WRITTEN WARNING AND THE SECOND OFFENSE A $100.00 FINE AND ANY OTHER
SUBSEQUENT OFFENSES

on. | would just like to make an amendment to the Ordinance so that you are not required if you have a
medical condition, not required to show proof of that medical condition for not wearing a mask.
President Wilshire
OK did you get that Madam Clerk?
Susan Lovering, City Clerk
| believe it was to further amend that if you have a medical condition that you are NOT required to show
proof?
Alderman Tencza
Correct.

you know, | don’t deny the fact that masks are important. | know some people have questioned the science
behind it; | don’t question the science behind it or anything like that. | would like to a motion to amend and |
would amend the Ordinance by saying that first offense you give a warning and on second offense you give
a $25.00 fine.
