Tuesday night\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s meeting was packed with more than 20 residents taking the microphone during the public comment session. After hearing from everyone in this three-hour meeting, Chandler City Council members took up the resolution and it didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t pass. A second and amended version of the ordinance was also introduced by one council member, but it failed to receive a second motion to be put it up for a vote.<!--more--> People also showed up outside protesting against the policy they called \u00e2\u20ac\u0153extremely\u00e2\u20ac\u009d dangerous, saying it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s likely not enforceable.
