A public hearing on an urgency ordinance to extend an earlier urgency ordinance imposing a moratorium on the approval of substance abuse treatment centers goes before the Garden Grove City Council when it meets on Tuesday.

If approved, the ordinance would extend the pause on new alcohol and drug treatment centers for an additional 10 months and 15 days. The purpose of the moratorium is to give the city time to study and complete appropriate zoning for such uses.

Also on the agenda for the council are:
the purchase of 15 new police patrol vehicles at a cost of $813,766,20;
discussion on a proposed temporary regional K-9 support training facility at Pioneer Park, located at 12722 Chapman Ave., east of Harbor Boulevard;
A “Community Spotlight” in recognition of goodwill ambassadors representing Anyang, Korea, as part of the 35th annual Garden Grove Sister City Exchange Program;
A proclamation in celebration of the coming Lunar New Year, starting on Feb. 10.
The council will meet in the Community Meeting Center, 11300 Stanford Ave. at 6:30 p.m.
