It's estimated that the <br /> event was attended by 80 to 100 people. The event seemed to be <br /> different from other city sponsored events in that it served to <br /> bring friends and neighbors together from a specific area of the <br /> city. Folks in attendance seemed to welcome the opportunity to <br /> attend a neighborhood based event. <br /> In celebration of "Cities Week staff suggests that an informal <br /> gathering be scheduled for each of the neighborhoods in the city. <br /> The event would consist of members of the Falcon Heights Fire <br /> Department and the St. Anthony Police Dept., along with their <br /> vehicles, parked in a designated location in the neighborhood. <br /> Their presence would serve as location for friends and neighbors <br /> to gather as well as provide an opportunity to meet and visit <br /> with members of the fire department and the police officers that <br /> will soon serve the city. It is suggested that coffee, lemonade <br /> and cookies would be served at each location. Publicity for the <br /> events would be accomplished by noticing it in the local <br /> newspapers and dropping fliers off two days prior to the event in <br /> each specific neighborhood. <br /> THE FOLLOWING SCHEDULE IS RECOMMENDED: <br /> Monday, September 26, 1994, 6 -7 p.m. <br /> Hollywood Court <br /> Northome <br /> Thursday, September 29, 1994, 6 -7 p.m. <br /> Falcon Woods <br /> University Grove <br /> tl I <br /> Saturday, October 1, 1994, p.m. <br /> Falcon Heights School <br /> Maple Knoll, Garden, Fry <br /> ACTION REQUESTED: Authorization to conduct "Cities Week" <br /> neighborhood events. <br /> :::•:;r::: :::::::;;;:::::;;:;r::::2 :::::i:::i::i:::;:::; ::::::`s::YYY:YY:::;:;:; ?::::::i:' "'22Y: »;4 <br />
