Mr. Moore addressed the Committee and introduced Police Chief White and Capt.
Puscher, and indicated that he wants them to become familiar with the logistics af this
ev�nt.
Betsy Cannelly recapped the previous meeting for Chmn. Coniglio and anyone who had
been absent from that meeting. 5he indicated that at that meeting, it seemed as though
there were some prablems with the logistics of the present plans for this event. She
nated that in the early days of planning, in February and March, when other aptions wcr�
available in terms of location, a d�cision was made, and the alternate locations may naw
no longer be available, such as Riverview Park. She then not�d that this seems to be a
late date to suggest changing the location, and this was the reason far calling for today's
special meeting.
Chmn. Coniglio commented that ane of the reasons for changing the dates of the event
was because of the conflict with the City emplayee Christmas party, which would make it
inconvenient far City employees to be available for the Street Party.

Committee to go over all of the statistics and logistics, as to how to make it successful.
He then suggested that now is the time ta work out all of the mechanics and logistics of
a two-day event, with a specific location, what events, how much manpower and how
many employees, etc. He invited some of the Committee members to work aut these

departments will be involved.
