Councilman Allen moved to adopt above resolution as
read. The motion was seconded by Councilman Holland and
unanimously carried.
The City Clerk was requested to advise thos owners of
lands who had requested adelay in abatement of nuisances on
their lands for various reasons, of the advisability of an
over-all abatement of said nuisances at this time, and of the
intention of the City, by tree of a mower, to maintain said
lands now cleared of nuisances in such a manner as to e~imi-
nate further cause for violation of Ordinance G-147.~
The City Manager was requested to obtain bids on a mower
suitable for this purpose.
Council then discussed with Mr. Fred Neaffie an~ associate
of John Smith, operators of cabana concessions on the beach,
and a mutual understanding relative to the limitations of
concessions operations, approved by the Swimming Committee as
well as Steve Forsyth, Aquatic Direc~tor, was agreed upon, the
above named operators assuring the ~ouncil of t heir full
cooperation.
A motion was made by Councilman Holland to grant a permit
to the aforementioned concessionaires authorizing issuance
of Occupational Licenses to Mr. Neaffie and Mr. Smith. Seconded
by Councilman Allen, the motion carried unanimously.
The meeting then adjourned.
