Fayette Findings ordinance (§ 215.410)

A. The City of Fayette is authorized by § 79.450, RSMo., to regulate and prohibit disorderly houses and other nuisances.

B. The Board of Aldermen of the City of Fayette, Missouri, finds that properties with an excessive number of calls for Police services impose an unfair burden on the other property owners within the City, waste scarce Police resources, and reduce the property values of surrounding properties.

C. The Board of Aldermen of the City of Fayette, Missouri finds that the owners of properties, whether those properties are owner occupied or rented, are in the best position to control the behavior of their occupants and thereby prevent wasteful and unneeded calls for service.
