follows:
A.On June 21, 2022, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 5559 on an
interim, urgency basis. Ordinance No. 5559 was adopted pursuant to Palo Alto
Municipal Code Section 2.04.270 based on the need to protect the public safety, health,
and welfare, as set forth in the findings and declarations of that ordinance. Ordinance
No. 5559 was also adopted in compliance with Government Code Section 65858, to the
extent that section was applicable, as an interim urgency measure to address a current
and immediate threat to the public health, safety, or welfare, for the reasons forth in
the findings and declarations in that ordinance.
B.The City Council now wishes to extend Ordinance No. 5559 for a period
of 10 months and 15 days.
C.City staff have received inquiries regarding the establishment of new
firearms retail uses in the City. The establishment of a firearms retailer without review
through a Condition Use Permit process presents a current and immediate threat to the
public health, safety, or welfare.
D.The conditions that gave rise to the need for Ordinance No. 5559 still
exist and City staff have begun exploration of a permanent ordinance.
E.This ordinance will not have a material impact on the development of
projects with a significant component of multifamily housing.
F.The findings adopted in Ordinance No. 5559 are incorporated herein by
reference and reaffirmed.
SECTION 2. Ordinance No. 5559 is hereby extended for a period of 10 months
and 15 days. The ordinance will therefore expire on June 20, 2023. This ordinance supersedes
any provision of Ordinance No. 5559 inconsistent with this Ordinance.

SECTION 3. If any section, subsection, clause or phrase of this Ordinance is for
any reason held to be invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portion

fact that any one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses or phrases be declared
invalid.
SECTION 4. The Council finds that this project is exempt from the provisions
of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), pursuant to Section 15061 of the CEQA
Guidelines, because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the ordinance
will have a significant effect on the environment.

expiration of Ordinance No. 5559 and shall be in effect for an additional period of 10 months
and 15 days following the expiration of Ordinance No. 5559, until June 20, 2023.
