Sec. 186.01. - Purpose.

The city council recognizes that the concept of familial relationships may extend beyond traditional marital and blood relationships. This expanded concept recognizes the relationship of two (2) non-married but committed adult partners. In order to provide such persons the opportunity to declare themselves as domestic partners, thus enabling employers to voluntarily provide equal treatment in employment benefits for such partners and their dependents, the city council hereby enacts a domestic partner registry.
