Commis~ioner Snow moved for acceptance of the low bid. Motion was
seconded by Commissioner Cromer and unanimously carried.
Mayor Yargates asked for discussion concerning current method
of issuance of parking violation tickets.
Mr. Phillip Stevenson, commenting on this matter with definite
understanding off no criticism being directed against the Police De-
partment,felt that, this being a tourist town, such tickets were possi-
bly being issued too freely, further stating that in his opinion this
City should follow the practice of other cities and towns in the use
of "Courtesy" tickets.
Commissioner Snow presented a sample of courtesy ticket used in
the City of Ft. Lauderdale.
Police Chief Croft stated that he was not in favor of courtesy
tickets, which, in his opinion, appeared to reflect discrimination
in their use.
Commissioner Barrow mentioned that the City should not antici-
pate a ~rofit from such function and that the administration of the
parking meter project vas solely to control traffic and reasonable
moving of same.
Commissioner Cromer favored consideration on first violation
and enforcement' thereafter.
The Police Chief reminded the Comission that to serve courtes~
tickets, consideration for first offenders, and, a follow-up there-
after with issuance of summons for "Repeaters", additional employees
would be required by his department to handle the detail.
The City Manager agreed to prepare a written report on the Pros
and cons of this issue for submission to the Commission at the next
regular meeting and the matter was tabled until said report is pre-
sented.
A general discussion followed concerning the appointment of
Clerks and Inspectors for the General Election, to be held Tuesday
December 4th, as well as the method of choice of same, and whether
or not they were properly instructed, particularly as to the re-
sponsibilities as well as their duties.
The Commission, requesting information, was advised by the
City Manager that, "On the day of any election it is unlawful for
any person to distribute any political pamphlets, cards or liter-
ature of any kind, or solicit votes, or approach any elector in an
attempt to solicit votes within 100 yds of ANY Polling Place".
NOVEHBER 26th, 1956,
The Chief of Police assured the Commission that properly
instructed officers would be at the Polls to insure maintaining

Following Clerks and Inspectors be appointed to serve at the ~ .,,
