However, state law allows home rule cities to adopt local ordinances which further restrict where offenders can live, and some cities may require offenders to live even further away from child safety zones. Current state law allows home rule cities to adopt a boundary of up to 2,000 feet. While state law mandates general restrictions, specific details can vary by city, and it is also illegal for offenders to loiter within 300 feet of these zones.  \nCurrently, the City of Lakeway does not have an ordinance that speaks to restrictions for child sex offenders establishing residency within the city limits. I’m requesting that we discuss establishing child safety zones, define those in an ordinance, and place a 2,000 feet restriction prohibiting any child sex offender from establishing residency within the boundary. The City of Bee Cave recently adopted an ordinance you will find in the attachments. Also attached is the Child Safety Zone Buffer Map.  \nFiscal Impact: None  \nAttachments: Child Safety Zones Map and Bee Cave Ordinance","cbCailcIY7iLj2nP","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailcIY7iLj2nP","pdf",142596,"English","# Background: Regulation of Registered Child Offender Residency\n## Proposed Residency Restrictions\n## Supporting Documentation and Fiscal Impact","[{\"question\":\"What is the primary purpose of the proposed ordinance in Lakeway?\",\"answer\":\"The proposed ordinance aims to establish child safety zones and prohibit child sex offenders from establishing residency within 2,000 feet of areas frequented by children, such as schools and parks.\"},{\"question\":\"What legal authority does the City of Lakeway have to implement these restrictions?\",\"answer\":\"As a home rule city, Lakeway is permitted under Texas state law to adopt local ordinances that restrict the residency of registered sex offenders up to a distance of 2,000 feet from child safety zones.\"},{\"question\":\"What materials are attached to support this agenda item?\",\"answer\":\"The attachments include a Child Safety Zone Buffer Map and a copy of an ordinance recently adopted by the City of Bee Cave for reference.\"}]","Staff Report - Child Offender Residency Regulations | PDF"]
