LEGAL NOTICE

TOWN OF MANSFIELD
ADOPTION OF AMENDMENTS TO THE SPECIAL POLICE SERVICES ORDINANCE
 RETITLED:  FEES FOR SPECIAL PUBLIC SAFETY SERVICES ORDINANCE

Following a Public Hearing held on June 22, 2009, the Mansfield Town Council adopted an Ordinance Establishing Fees for Special Public Safety Services. This ordinance shall become effective 21 days after a summary of the ordinance and a notice of adoption is published in a newspaper having a circulation in the Town of Mansfield.

This ordinance was first adopted in 1995 to address off campus and other parties and events that were having an adverse impact on the quality of life in Mansfield.  The replacement ordinance, among other things, expands the reimbursable municipal services to be included, revises definitions to provide clarity and improved enforceability, clarifies the possible responsible parties and provides that a determination of disturbance, nuisance or serious nuisance would be based on the totality of circumstances.

This document is prepared for the benefit of the public, solely, for purposes of information, summarization and explanation.  This document does not represent the intent of the legislative body of Mansfield for any purpose.  Copies of the ordinance will be mailed to any persons requesting one at no charge to such person.

Dated at Mansfield Connecticut this 24 day of June 2009.

Mary Stanton
Town Clerk
