Dan Langshaw Ordinance 21-67 Proposed Mobile Food Unit Ordinance Public Comments at the April 6, 2021 North Royalton City Council Meeting & Statement

Posted on April 6, 2021 by in Announcements, Testimony

Below is my full comments at the April 6, 2021 Regular North Royalton City Council Meeting about the Food Truck Legislation Ordinance 21-67 that I addressed City Council on during the public comments portion of the meeting agenda.

Unfortunately City Council passed this final version of legislation that was available to the public and the media only on Monday and passed it on First Reading not allowing Three Readings for further public input before a vote nor without any changes to the legislation.

The vote on Ordinance 21-67 was 5-2. I appreciate that our city’s charter and council rules allow for residents an opportunity to be heard and from past experience has been extremely helpful before I took tough votes on council.

I fully support residents first amendment rights to be heard. Thank you to the Council President and Ward 1 Councilwoman for at least voting against this legislation last night and taking into consideration residents and businesses concerns that were raised to try improve the legislation.

Dan Langshaw’s Statement on COVID-19 Vaccine

Like many of you in the community, I too have been very skeptical of getting the COVID-19 vaccine that is now available. In my life when I make a major decision I do my due diligence and research first. Also being a husband of a front-line nurse that has to battle COVID-19 every shift at her hospital, I understand how difficult this battle is first-hand. My wife has worked tirelessly in her line of work and it has been extremely hard to see how much COVID-19 has effected families in our area and the impact nurses and those on the front lines have with this overwhelming pandemic. As a family we decided that I would get the vaccine due to the opportunity supplied by my employer.

Dan Langshaw’s Statement on Misinformation by Council Members & Call Again for Increased Transparency of City Council

It has been brought to my attention that a member or members of the North Royalton City Council have falsely said I have “lied” about the food truck ordinance draft through different social media groups or in communications with residents. In the past these tactics were used by the current majority in an effort to defame me, my family, and to bait me. I will not let such childish tactics bully me from providing transparent information of what is going on in our local government and its potential impact on North Royalton and our struggling small businesses.

The food truck ordinance draft that is posted on my Facebook page here:  https://www.facebook.com/58627438748/posts/10158915510178749/ This was indeed the hand delivered copy I received from the City of North Royalton Economic Development Director Tom Jordan after he spoke during the North Royalton City Council Building & Building Codes Committee Meeting January 19, 2021 a public meeting any resident could attend. I attended the meeting in person, as well as others too in the audience with me. I did not write out or make up this draft. This was the public draft that I was given at this meeting and which was the same one presented to council.
