Executive Summary for Action
COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE: April 14, 1999
Agenda Item: Tattoo Ordinance Agenda Section:
Prepared By: Gary Kalstabakken, Chi f o Agenda No: �_, � -,
Police (�� � -�
Attachments: Draft Ordinance Approved By:
The Council has requested that an ordinance regulating tattoo establishments be drafted and
presented to Council for discussion. An ordinance drafted a couple of years ago by an intern in
the Community Development Department has been attached as an example of possible
regulatory controls.
Tattoo and body piercing are discussed as health concerns in the draft ordinance. State statutes
and licensing boards regulate most other occupations which are health related, including medical
professionals and cosmetologists. Currently, there are no state regulations specific to tattoo and
body piercing.
It is staff's recommendation that state elected officials be contacted to discuss the possibility of
initiating legislation to address tattoo and body piercing. If a city ordinance is adopted, it is
recommended that it be much narrower than the draft ordinance, more focused on issues of
concern to council members and limited to regulations that can realistically be enforced by
existing city personnel.
RECOMMENDED ACTION NOTES: Discussion only.
