SUBSTITUTE BILL No 26 -08 <br />ORDINANCE NO. <br />AN ORDINANCE OF THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, <br />INDIANA AMENDING CHAPTER 13, ARTICLE 10 OF THE SOUTH BEND <br />MUNICIPAL CODE CONCERNING FIREARMS <br />STATEMENT OF PURPOSE AND INTENT <br />Chapter 13, Article 10, sections 94 et M. of the South Bend Municipal Code were <br />originally adopted in February 1994 pursuant to "Home Rule" powers granted to local <br />municipalities. Thereafter, the Indiana legislature enacted I.C. 35 -47 -11 which severely restricts <br />a city's ability to regulate the sale, transfer, and transportation of firearms. Nonetheless, under <br />I.C. 35- 47 -11 -2 a city retains authority to restrict firearms (1) on its own property, (2) within two <br />hundred (200) feet of a school, and (3) in the event of a declared emergency for a period up to <br />seventy -two (72) hours. <br />This ordinance deletes those portions of Chapter 13, Article 10, Sections 94 et Lqq. of the <br />South Bend Municipal Code which are inconsistent with or in derogation of I.C. 35- 47 -11 -2 <br />while exercising the residual regulatory powers over firearms granted to cities by state law. <br />Specifically, in order to protect employees, invitees, and visitors on City property, it restricts <br />firearms on City property. <br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the Common Council of the City of South <br />Bend as follows: <br />Section I. The title of Chapter 13, Article 10, is amended to read as follows: <br />ARTICLE 10. SELEGTEP_V�EAPONS A�M DISTRUNIE�9S OF VIOLENCE <br />PROHIB !TED FIREARMS PROHIBITED ON CITY PROPERTY <br />Section II. The Title of Chapter 13, Article 10, Division 1 is amended to read as follows: <br />DIVISION 1. LOADED n DED n cS n r Tr T 3 TAPONS PROHIBIT PUBLIC PLACES <br />WHERE FIREARMS ARE RESTRICTED OR PROHIBITED <br />Section III. Chapter 13, Article 10, Section 13 -94 of the South Bend Municipal Code is <br />hereby deleted. <br />Section IV. Chapter 13, Article 10, Section 13 -95 of the South Bend Municipal Code is <br />hereby renumbered as Section 13 -94 and amended to read as follows: <br />Sec. 13 -95 94. Definitions. <br />
