AGENDA STATEMENT
Item No. 9.G.
For Meeting of: August 20, 2024
ITEM TITLE: Resolution designating prohibited areas in SODA (Stay Out of Drug
Area) Orders issued under Chapter 6.13.
SUBMITTED BY: Jeffrey Schaap, Senior Assistant City Attorney
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
If the SODA (Stay Out of Drug Areas) Order ordinance is adopted by the City Council, the City Council
must by resolution establish "prohibited areas." The City Legal Department in consultation with the Police
Chief, and his designees, after reviewing data combined with knowledge gained from on the ground
experience has identified two "prohibited areas." These areas have been identified as areas with high
drug related incidents and are the areas that prohibited persons may be restricted from as the result of a
drug related charge or conviction. These areas encompass a portion of Naches Avenue and North First
Street. A map of the "prohibited areas" is attached to the resolution which defines the "prohibited areas."
ITEM BUDGETED: N/A
STRATEGIC PRIORITY 24-25: A Safe and Healthy Yakima
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolution.
