(f) Vice Mayor Cleveland indicated that he was getting complaints about people who like to do street parties where they have come in for permits and he really appreciates the staff waiving the one million dollar worth of insurance until next year. He asked if there was some way the City can help those needing this insurance how to get this.

Mr. O'Kane, Director of Transportation and Environmental Services, participated in the discussion.

Staff is to report back on necessity of the one million dollar insurance policy for block parties.

The voting was as follows:

Pepper "aye" Cleveland "aye"
Rich "aye" Donley not yet arrived
The resolution reads as follows:
