counters, wall shelving, signs and other equipment existing at the beginning of this Agreement are

the property of the City, which shall have the right to remove them with reasonable notice to the

Boys & Girls Club.

d. Boys & Girls Club agrees that it will not construct or place, or permit to be

constructed or placed, signs, awnings, marquees, or other structures projecting from the exterior

of the premises without the City's written consent. Boys & Girls Club agrees to maintain, at its

own expense, all signs and have them serviced as necessary on a regular basis so as not to allow

such signs to deteriorate or become unsightly.

e. No aerial or antenna shall be erected on the roof or exterior wall without first

obtaining permission from the City. Any remodeling or construction projects must be submitted

to the City for approval and must contain the approval of the City Manager, a licensed architect, if

applicable, and/or maintenance staff of the City before any remodeling of the current building.

11. MECHANICS’ LIENS

In the event that Boys & Girls Club makes any major alterations, additions or

improvements, as provided for above, Boys & Girls Club shall not cause, suffer or permit any

mechanic’s, materialmen’s, or other liens to be filed against Premises, or any part thereof, nor

against Boys & Girls Club’s leasehold interest, by reason of work, labor, services, or materials

supplied or claimed to have been supplied to Boys & Girls Club. In the event that such liens shall

be recorded against the Premises, Boys & Girls Club shall cause the same to be removed or, in the

alternative, if it in good faith desires to contest the same, it shall be privileged to do so, but in such

case Boys & Girls Club hereby agrees to indemnify and save the City harmless from all liability

for damages occasioned thereby and shall, in the event of a judgment of foreclosure, cause the

same to be discharged and removed prior to the execution of such judgment.

12. ACCESS AND INSPECTION

Upon giving reasonable notice to Boys & Girls Club, the City may enter Premises during

Boys & Girls Club’s regular business hours and have free access to Premises and improvements

Legal Committee 10/28/2021 --14-- City of Roswell, New Mexico

located thereon for the purpose of inspecting the condition thereof or exercising any right or power

reserved to City under the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

13. HOLDOVER

In the event Boys & Girls Club remains in possession of Premises after the expiration or

termination of this Agreement, Boys & Girls Club shall be deemed a tenant at sufferance, and shall

be required to pay to the City the fair market rental value of the Premises on a monthly basis, and

Boys & Girls Club’s occupancy shall be governed in all other respects by the provisions hereof,

except as to the duration of the Term.

14. CONDEMNATION

a. In the event that the Premises or any portion thereof shall be condemned for public

or quasi-public purpose, or shall be taken by any governmental authority in any manner whatsoever

during the Term hereof, this Agreement shall terminate as of the effective date of such

condemnation or taking, unless the Parties mutually agree that any remainder left after a partial

condemnation or taking is still suitable for the purposes of this Agreement, in which case this

Agreement may continue at the election of the Parties. In such event, Boys & Girls Club shall bear

any necessary costs of relocating its equipment and placing the remaining Premises in proper and

usable condition.

b. In the event of total or partial condemnation or taking of the Premises as aforesaid,

all compensation awarded or paid upon a total or partial taking of the Premises shall belong to City

and Boys & Girls Club shall have no right or cause of action against City; provided, however that

Boys & Girls Club shall be entitled to participate in any award to the extent that such award

includes the loss, if any, sustained by Boys & Girls Club as a result of the termination of this

Agreement or diminution of its leasehold estate and the value of any fixtures condemned or taken

if such fixtures were installed by Boys & Girls Club and are located upon Premises at the time of

such condemnation or taking. Boys & Girls Club reserves the right to proceed independently of

City with any claim for compensation for damages to which Boys & Girls Club may become

entitled by reason of such total or partial condemnation or taking.

15. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OF PREMISES

a. In the event Premises is damaged or destroyed by fire, the elements, or other perils

or casualty not the fault of Boys & Girls Club, the City may, in its sole and absolute discretion,

repair or rebuild the same within a reasonable time after the event causing such damage, or

Legal Committee 10/28/2021 --15-- City of Roswell, New Mexico

terminate this Agreement by 30 days’ written notice to Boys & Girls Club. If the City elects to

repair or rebuild, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, except that Boys & Girls

Club’s obligation to pay Rent shall be waived or reduced based upon the extent to which the

damage and making of such repairs shall reasonably interfere with the activities carried on by Boys

& Girls Club in Premises, as determined by the City. The City shall not be required to repair any

damage by fire or other casualty, or to make any repair or replacements, of any leasehold

improvements, fixtures, or other personal property of Boys & Girls Club. In no event shall the City

be liable to or for any costs incurred by Boys & Girls Club as a result of disruption of its activities

by casualty under this Section.

b. In the event that the City elects to repair or rebuild Premises under this Section, the

City shall act promptly and with due diligence, but the City shall not be responsible for delays

caused by factors beyond the City’s control, including but not limited to delays because of strikes,

work slowdowns or stoppages, accidents, failure of any governmental or other authority to act in

a timely manner, or delays caused by contractors. If such delays occur, Boys & Girls Club agrees

that the City shall not be responsible for damages, nor shall the City be deemed to be in default

under this Agreement.

16. TERMINATION

Either Party may terminate this Agreement at any time during the Term or any Renewal

Term hereof by giving 180 days’ written notice in advance for cause. The foregoing

notwithstanding, the City may terminate this Agreement, with or without cause, upon 180 days

written notice in advance, by majority vote of the City Council. Termination under this Section

shall not terminate, prejudice or otherwise effect any right or obligation accruing hereunder prior

to the termination.

17. SURRENDER

Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, Boys & Girls Club shall quit and

surrender Premises to the City within 30 days of the expiration or notice of termination, in as clean

and good order and condition as it was at the commencement of the Term, normal wear and tear

excepted. Except as otherwise provided for herein, Boys & Girls Club shall remove all of its

personal property and fixtures from Premises prior to surrender and any such personal property or

fixtures abandoned on or about the Premises after surrender shall become irrevocably the property

of the City, but Boys & Girls Club shall be liable for any costs to the City of disposing of any of

Legal Committee 10/28/2021 --16-- City of Roswell, New Mexico

its property or fixtures left after surrender that the City, in its discretion, does not elect to keep.

Boys & Girls Club shall be further liable for any costs of repairs, restoration or cleaning of

Premises made necessary as a result of Boys & Girls Club’s failure to maintain its obligations

under this Section.

18. INSURANCE

a. Boys & Girls Club agrees to have and maintain the polices of insurance set forth in

Exhibit A: Insurance, which Exhibit is attached hereto and incorporated by reference as if set forth

fully herein. All policies, endorsements, certificates, and/or binders shall be subject to approval by

the City as to form and content. These requirements are subject to amendment or waiver only if so

approved in writing by the City. A lapse in any required insurance coverage during this Agreement

shall be a breach of this Agreement.

i. all insurance coverage and/or limits by or available to Boys & Girls Club;

or

ii. the minimum coverage requirements and/or limits set forth in Exhibit A,

coverage and/or minimum required limits set forth in Exhibit A, which are applicable to a given

loss, shall be available to the City. No representation is made that the minimum insurance

requirements set forth in Exhibit A are sufficient to cover the obligations of Boys & Girls Club

pursuant to this Agreement. Boys & Girls Club’s requirements under this Section shall be referred

to herein as the “Insurance.”

d. Maintenance of insurance coverage set forth in this Section during the entire Term,

and any Renewal Term, is a material element of this Agreement and failure to maintain or renew

coverage or to provide evidence of the existence or renewal of required insurance may be treated

by the City as a material breach of this Agreement.

19. INDEMNIFICATION AND HOLD HARMLESS

a. The City shall not be liable to Boys & Girls Club or to Boys & Girls Club's

employees, customers, visitors, or any other person for any injury or damage to person or property

arising from any cause whatsoever which shall occur in any manner in or about the premises in

liability, actions, claims, losses, damages, disabilities, and expenses, including costs of litigation

and reasonable attorneys’ fees, that are asserted by any person or entity, to the extent arising out

of any and all acts or omissions of Boys & Girls Club, or its officers, employees or agents, in the

performance of this Agreement, excluding, however, such liability, claims, losses, damages, or

expenses arising from the City’s sole negligence or willful acts.

c. Boys & Girls Club agrees to be responsible for all loss or damage from any cause

whatsoever to any of its property or equipment. Boys & Girls Club is responsible for providing its

own liability and loss insurance coverage for any of its property or equipment and Boys & Girls

Club expressly acknowledges that no part of said property or equipment shall be covered under

the City’s insurance policies.

d. These indemnifications are independent of and shall not in any way be limited by

the insurance requirements of this Agreement. Approval by the City of the insurance requirement

by this Agreement shall not in any way relieve Boys & Girls Club from liability under this Section.

The City’s right to indemnification hereunder shall survive termination, whether for cause or not,

or expiration of this Agreement.

20. DEFAULT

Boys & Girls Club shall be in default of this Agreement, if at any time during the Term

be entitled to regain possession thereof in the manner provided by the laws of the State of New

Mexico in force at the time of the default. Termination hereunder shall not relieve Boys & Girls

Club from any claim for damages accruing to the City under this Agreement or as a result of the

default and the City shall be entitled to enforce the payment of such claim for damages by any

remedy provided by law, whether or not stated herein. The City may further sue to restrain by

injunction any violation or threatened violation of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this

Lease.

Legal Committee 10/28/2021 --19-- City of Roswell, New Mexico

of this Agreement, the City may, but shall not be obligated to, take or cause to be taken such action

or make such payment as may be required by such covenant, without notice to or demand upon

activities, labor dispute or strike, government sanction, blockage, embargo, or failure of electrical

service, nor for any failure or delay caused by the negligence or omission of the City. Either Party

AGENDA ITEM NO. 5– ABSTRACT LEGAL COMMITTEE MEETING

Thursday, October 28, 2021 4:00 PM Roswell City Hall Conference Room

425 N. Richardson St., Roswell, NM 88201

Ord. 21-XX Clean Air Act

ACTION REQUESTED: Consider recommending to advertise to hold a public hearing to consider adoption of proposed Ord 21-XX repealing Sec. 16-9 and replacing it with Chapter 14, Article 5: Clean Air Act.

BACKGROUND: Initiated by: Kevin Maevers Upon legislative approval of HB 2, the Cannabis Regulation Act, codified as NMSA 1978, § 26-2C-1 et seq., the New Mexico Legislature established a comprehensive regulatory framework for cannabis and cannabis-derived products under state law. The Act allows local jurisdictions to adopt time, place and manner rules, including rules that reasonably protect public health from the negative impacts of second-hand smoke. The Roswell City Council has previously determined that second-hand smoke from tobacco, or any other weeds or plants, including cannabis, is a health hazard to individuals present in enclosed spaces. Additionally, the City Council has determined that the right to breathe clean air free from health and environmental hazards, such as second-hand smoke, is a human right. With the introduction of Chapter 27 of the Roswell Municipal Code, proposed Ord 21-XX improves public health by adding additional protections against negative impacts associated with second-hand smoke, including second-hand smoke from cannabis and product derivatives.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATION:

There are no direct financial impacts associated with this item

LEGAL REVIEW: The City Attorney has reviewed the proposed Ordinance.

BOARD and/or COMMITTEE ACTION:

The Thursday, October 28, 2021 meeting of the Legal Committee will be the first consideration of this matter.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Consider recommending to advertise to hold a public hearing to consider adoption of proposed Ord 21-XX repealing Sec. 16-9 and replacing it with Chapter 14, Article 5: Clean Air Act.

ORDINANCE 21-XX 1 2

AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND THE ROSWELL CITY CODE 3 CREATING CHAPTER 14, ARTICLE 5 4

CLEAN AIR ACT 5 6

WHEREAS, the City Council has previously determined that the smoking of tobacco, or 7 any other weed or plant, including cannabis, is a positive danger to health and a health hazard to 8 those who are present in enclosed places and that smoking in such areas should be confined to 9 designated smoking areas; and, 10

11 WHEREAS, pursuant to the Dee Johnson Clean Air Act and subsequent revisions thereto, 12

the City Council has declared its intention to protect the public health from such hazards in public 13 places and places of employment without imposing exorbitant costs on persons in management 14 and control of the places subject to the Dee Johnson Clean Indoor Air Act; and. 15

16 WHEREAS, the Cannabis Regulation Act, codified as NMSA 1978, § 26-2C-1 et seq., the 17 New Mexico Legislature established a comprehensive regulatory framework for the sales, 18 possession, and consumption, of cannabis and cannabis-derived products under state law; and 19 20

WHEREAS, the Cannabis Regulation Act provides that local jurisdictions may adopt time, 21 place and manner rules that do not conflict with the Cannabis Regulation Act or the Dee Johnson 22 Clean Indoor Air Act, including rules that reasonably limit density of licenses and operating times 23 consistent with neighborhood uses; and 24

25 WHEREAS, pursuant to the Chapter 27 of the Roswell City Code, the City Council has 26

enacted such controls and restrictions on the possession, use, and sales of cannabis and cannabis-27 derived products, consistent with the provisions of the Cannabis Regulation Act, necessary and 28 proper to protect and promote the health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of Roswell, New 29 Mexico. 30

31 WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that the right to breath clean air, free from 32

the health and environmental hazards of smoking and second-hand smoke, is a human right and 33 that children, the elderly, and the most vulnerable are deserving of additional protections, 34

35 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL AS THE 36

GOVERNING BODY OF THE CITY OF ROSWELL, NEW MEXICO, that: 37 38 SECTION 1. The Roswell City Code is hereby amended to create Chapter 14, Article 5, and 39 designating such article as the Roswell Clean Air Act: 40 41

CHAPTER 14, ARTICLE 5: CLEAN AIR ACT 42 43 ARTICLE 5: CLEAN AIR ACT 44 45

Sec. 14-40 – Short Title 46 47 This article may be cited as the “Roswell Clean Air Act.” 48

Legal Committee 10/28/2021 --65-- City of Roswell, New Mexico

1 Sec. 14-41 – Findings, Purpose, and Intent 2

3 A. The Roswell City Council finds that secondhand smoke of all varieties, including but 4

not limited to: tobacco, cannabis, or vaping products, poses a significant health hazard 5 to both adults and children. 6 7

B. The Roswell City Council finds that the Explicit nonpreemption clause of the Dee 8 Johnson Clean Indoor Air Act (NMSA 1978, § 24-16-20.) does not “preempt or in any 9 manner preclude specific provisions of a county or municipal smoking ordinance; 10 provided that the smoke-free provisions of such a county or municipal ordinance are 11 inclusive of all minimum standards and provisions for smoke-free areas within the Dee 12 Johnson Clean Indoor Air Act.” 13

14 C. The Roswell City Council therefore declares that the purpose of this ordinance is to 15

protect the public health and welfare by prohibiting smoking in public places and places 16 of employment in conformance with the Dee Johnson Clean Indoor Act (NMSA 1978, 17 § 24-16-1 et seq.) and all subsequent revisions thereto. 18

19 D. The intent of this article is to provide for the regulations and prohibitions necessary to 20

ensure the health, safety and welfare of residents and visitors within the City of 21 Roswell. Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to allow persons to engage in 22 conduct that endangers others or causes a public nuisance. Furthermore, nothing herein 23 shall be construed to permit or authorize any possession, use, and/or consumption of 24 cannabis beyond the provisions of the Cannabis Regulation Act or the Lynn and Erin 25 Compassionate Use Act, nor as affecting or intended to affect or modify federal law 26 relating to cannabis. 27

28 Sec. 14-42. - Definitions 29
