4
November 15, 2022
Councilmember Mumgaard asked where the 95% threshold comes from. Mr. Sullivan explained
that the threshold was based on results of a traffic study.
Councilmember Mumgaard stated that he noticed in the Preliminary Plat that a traffic impact study
was mentioned and talked about a traffic light, which would be discussed in the Subdivision
Agreement. Mr. Sullivan explained that signalization requirements outlined in the traffic impact
study will be included in the Subdivision Agreement, which states that this SID will have to
contribute to the traffic light installation. Councilmember Mumgaard stated that he usually goes
along with what a traffic impact study recommends but thinks that waiting for the 95% threshold
may take too long and thinks a traffic light may be needed sooner.
Councilmember Stubbe asked what mitigating or interim steps will be taken during construction
to make sure traffic will not be impeded on 84th St. Mr. Sullivan stated that he thinks the best way
to address that is for the development team to work with the City' s Public Works Department and
put together a construction plan.

a traffic signal.
Opponents: Beth and Mike Norris, 2425 Corn Dr, explained their concerns with the new

thinks a traffic signal needs to be installed at 84th St and Corn Dr sooner versus later.
Robert Conn, 2311 S River Rock Dr, asked if 90th St will be completed before the grading of the
project area happens, how far south 90th St will go, and what type of intersection 90th St and
Schram Rd will be.
Neutral: Marvin Leaders, 13901 Schram Rd, explained that he is part owner of the land south of
this project and asked that the storm water runoff be reviewed, as he believes the current proposal
may cause problems for his property. Mayor Black stated that the Public Works Director is aware
of his concerns and will have the Public Works Department look into it.
No one else came forward and the public hearing was closed.
Councilmember Mumgaard asked when and if the Subdivision Agreement will be put before
Council for consideration. Mr. Gibbons explained that the Subdivision Agreement and Final Plat

Councilmember Kluch asked what the timeline is for 90th St being completed and whether it is the
City' s responsibility to have it completed. Mayor Black explained that these issues will be
addressed with the Preliminary Plat.

approve RES. R22- 0200 by Councilmember Stubbe, second by Councilmember Glover. Mayor
Black called for proponents and opponents. None came forward.
Councilmember Gaines asked if approval of this license prior to consideration of item F6. ORD.
1979 would make the license subject to the current fireworks ordinance in code. Mayor Black
explained that the licensee will be required to abide by the ordinance that is current during the
licensing period. Ms. Heathershaw Risko added that the proposed ordinance amendment in F6
includes changes to the dates and times of the winter season but would not impact the licensing
process. Upon roll call vote, Sunde, Mumgaard, Gaines, Glover, Jaworski, Kluch, Stubbe, and
Engberg all voted yes. Voting no: none. Motion passed.
ORD. 1979 — PUBLIC HEARING AND VOTE — An ordinance to amend Papillion Municipal

November 15, 2022
fireworks regulations, and to provide for an effective date— Phil Green — 827- 1778 ( Tabled
from the November 1, 2022, City Council Meeting). Mayor Black explained that ORD. 1979
was tabled from the November 1, 2022, City Council Meeting, and a request had been made to
reopen the public hearing. The public hearing was originally held at the October 18, 2022, City
Council Meeting, but will be reopened tonight.
Mayor Black opened the public hearing and called for proponents and opponents.
Proponents: None.
Opponent: John Lowndes, 11909 S 48th St, Shepherds Inc., came forward and stated that his
organization' s concern as a nonprofit is that the allowance of additional tents will reduce profits
for each organization. Councilmember Mumgaard stated that limiting the number of tents to what
can be safely regulated has long been the City' s standard. He added that he spoke with the Police
Department and asked them if any problems had been reported and was told no.
Pat Sullivan, 1246 Golden Gate Dr, representing Bellino Fireworks and the organizations who use
Bellino Fireworks, stated that he thinks the language stating " to safely regulate" is too vague and
he does not understand how it can be enforced. Mr. Sullivan added that he thinks it makes sense
to increase the number of licenses from 12 to 14 ( the number allowed in 2022), and then
reevaluate the number of licenses as the city continues to grow. Councilmember Mumgaard
stated that the language " to safely regulate" has been a part of the ordinance for a long time and
has been the City' s standard. He added that he does not think the City needs to limit how many
licenses can be permitted each year.
Councilmember Mumgaard asked Mr. Sullivan if he had any concerns with the language about
who can operate a fireworks tent. Mr. Sullivan stated yes and that he had questions about who
the wording was referring to, since most tents, porta- potties, and dumpsters are rented from
vendors. The language in § 117- 11( E) seems to limit who may operate in the fireworks tent, which
could put the applicant in violation of this ordinance. Councilmember Mumgaard stated that he
did not think the intent was to prohibit that kind of activity.
Neutral: James Pederson, 11725 S 113th St, Fraternal Order of Eagles, explained that his own
concern with the regulation of approving vendors who have operated for five or more consecutive
years is that it does not allow for new groups to have an opportunity to participate in fireworks
sales.
Mike Erdman, 926 S Madison St, stated that there should be a different way of determining which
applicants are approved for a license, because there needs to be some opportunities available
for other nonprofit organizations.
Edward Weniger, 1709 Ridgeview Dr, stated that he agreed with Councilmember Mumgaard and
did not think there should be a limit on the number of licenses approved.
No one else came forward and the public hearing was closed.
Motion to approve ORD. 1979 by Councilmember Mumgaard, second by Councilmember Stubbe.
Councilmember Glover stated that there has been quite a bit of discussion over the last few years
regarding fireworks and numbers. He added that there has been some progress made in giving
other groups an opportunity to participate in fireworks sales, and that the number of approved
licenses had been increased from 12 to 14. Mayor Black clarified that the number of approved
8
November 15, 2022
licenses was 14 only for the 2022 season and will now go back to 12 based on the current
ordinance. Councilmember Glover thanked Mayor Black for the clarification and stated that he
would support increasing the number of licenses to 14 annually if a motion to do so was presented.
Councilmember Stubbe stated that he would like to discuss more about the change relative to
who is getting the license and that it should be operated by individuals who are part of the
010211173011. COU1101111101111301 Stubb 01111101110d that NO intent with SCAM was Ib l'h6 sure
that an organization that is issued a license cannot sell it to another organization. He added that
he would be receptive to cleaning up the language in that section.
Councilmember Gaines stated that he would like to make a motion to amend to strike all changes
listed in ORD. 1979 and go back to the current ordinance; to remove all language specific to the
2022 selling season; to amend § 117- 11( A) to increase the number of permits that the City can
issue from 12 to 14; to add the following language to § 117- 11( C): " In addition to and
notwithstanding the above criteria, any applicant may be approved or disapproved based on
consideration on the applicant' s
past performance as a permittee"; and to add the following
language to § 117- 11( F): " Upon approval by the City Council, a license may not be sold, leased,
or transferred in any matter to any other organization other than the organization that was
approved for the permit." Second by Councilmember Sunde.
Councilmember Mumgaard stated that he plans to vote against the motion to amend because he
thinks that there should be an extension on the timeframe during which fireworks may be
discharged, and that he thinks that some organizations are obtaining their licenses but then hiring
out the work instead of just leasing out their licenses.
Councilmember Jaworski stated that he agrees with most of the motion to amend but asked what
the consequences for an organization would be if they were caught selling, leasing, or transferring
their license to another organization.
Councilmember Gaines stated that he thinks the language proposed to be added to § 117- 11( C)
may address this concern.
Councilmember Gaines asked if he could add to his motion to amend. Mayor Black stated yes.
Councilmember Gaines stated that he would propose keeping the end time that fireworks may be
sold during the winter selling season at 11: 59 P. M. on December 31 but extending the time they
can be discharged to 12: 30 A. M. on January 1.
Mayor Black called for a vote on the motion to amend. Upon roll call vote, Sunde, Gaines, Glover,
Jaworski, Kluch, and Engberg all voted yes. Voting no: Mumgaard and Stubbe. Motion passed.
