What is the legal  procedure for a city council to pass a new ordinance?

That would depend upon the Municipal Law and how many people turn out to state their opinion on the matter. I suggest you check out what your Municipal Laws state.

Depends where you live. Look up the local ordinance to find out.

This is a difficult question to answer, because this kind of thing is decided on a local basis. You will have to go to your local planning authority to ask what steps to take. If there are other people who live along your road, you may need to make a group petition. Also, be prepared for your property taxes to go up. Many times, municipalities will charge a special assessment to the properties that benefit from this kind of improvement.

Yeah, slightly.  My advice to you would be to make a complaint to your city council.  Now, I'm not legal expert or anything, so that's the best I can suggest.

It depends on state and local zoning laws. Run a search for your local municipal code, it will probably be online.

You need to talk to or write your local state Senate or House representative.  You will have to convince them the law needs to be introduced.  After it is introduced into their respective legislative body, it will probably go to committee where it will be reviewed and revised.  From there, it goes to a full vote.  After it passes, it goes to the other legislative body to go to committee and be passed.\n\nIf it passes both legislative houses, it will then go to the state governor to be signed or vetoed.

You question isn’t really clear on what you want to do.\n\nAny citizen has the right of petition, for reference check the first article of the Bill of Rights.  \n\nAny citizen nominate (through support signatures if nothing else) any one they wish.\n\nAmending (I assume city codes) are normally done with the support of at least one council member.  However, any citizen can attend city council meetings and propose any amendment to city codes that they wish to propose.\n\nWhat you didn’t ask is how to develop a viable support group for such an effort.  Just because you petition, nominate, or propose amendments, doesn’t mean that this will work.  It is your efforts to develop support that will win the day and this could take years.

Try the library. Most library have either books that contain laws or access to Internet resources that will have law on file.\n\nYou could also try looking at the city's website. Cities will often have a link to municipal codes or other laws in the jurisdiction.

the tribal elders would have to consider your request if you ask in the proper manner.  the council would take the matter under advisement and talk with the legal department.  it may be brought to a tribal vote if it did not violate tribal, federal, or state laws. a zoning issue may be at hand and your answer would be  no.

Petition, petition, petition. Find out how many signatures will be required to get the attention of the local government. Also go the the City/County clerks office and ask who to see about making your views known. In some cases the Mayor or head of the local government may see you and see if you have any suggestions on what else could be done about it, but the more backing you have the greater your chances are of getting something out of it.

Per Texas law, each Police Dept is required to submit a report of stats on that very subject each year to the city council.  So, I would start with the City council, or perhaps the Chief's office for the current copy.

...Yes, attend all planning commission meetings.  Get a petition signed by ALL people affected by this. Check,Site, and Document for the Planning Commission the ZONING laws for the affected area. If the new business in not in  compliance bring to attention of City Council. or maybe Code Enforcemnt entity. Show the commission you are an informed sovereign citizen. Good luck

first go to the local pd and find out their position,  planing dept to find out their position, and then if you aren't discouraged, start currying favor with the council. you will get a lot of nimby knee jerk reactions.\n\nfrom these 3 entities, you'll get a pretty good idea how to proceed.
