Subject: Bill 121 / Amendment #3
w
Council
Section 25-4-16.1 subsection (a)(3) is vague and invites litigation if not rewritten,
r
The phrase within that section reading "...and not live in a guesthouse or a detached bedroom of a single-
family dwelling" is vague. The phrase utilizes the word "detached' as an adjective without providing a
definition for that word. While the word "detached" may, at first glance, appear clear, its use before the
word "bedroom" and not before the word "guesthouse" defeats that clarity.
Amendment #3 resolves the problem and should be adopted for a number of reasons. 1 support
adoption of Amendment #3,
However, if Amendment 43 is not adopted, then the word "detached" must first be defined and the word
"detached" should be used as an adjective, not only before the word "bedroom'; but should also be
used before the word "guesthouse."
