July 23, 1984 on the lawn. Mrs. Canfield said she had received permission of all the residents of the street. 267 II Mr. Marier asked what would be the alternative, if this should be denied. Mrs. Canfield said she would have the reception in the yard. Mr. Marier asked why use the street, if there was space in the yard and Mrs. Canfield said this was an option, in case the party spilled over into the street. 1 1 Mr. Schumacher noted that this has been researched and a form has been put together which holds the City harmless. This relieves the City of any liability. Mr. Reinert moved to approve this request to hold a wedding reception for Mrs. Canfield on Pheasant Run on July 28, 1984 with the band to play from 1:00 P.M. to 5:00 P.M. and dancing activities to cease at 5:00 P.M. with Mrs. Canfield to sign the hold harmless agreement. Seconded by Mr. Marier. Motion carried unanimously. Dr. Neal Benjamin and Mr. Al Matthews, Fire Commissioners appeared before the Council to present the Commissioner's recommendation for a Chairman of the Commission. Mr. Benjamin presented Mr. Barry Matson for the Council's consideration. A brief update on the actions was given with Mr. Benjamin noting that the Commission had changed the name to "Centennial Fire District ". The Council had some reservations with this name and suggested "Tri- City ". The general feeling was that the name should be representative of the area. Mr. Marier moved to approve the recommendation of the Fire Commissioners to appoint Mr. Barry Matson as Chairman of the Commission. Mr. Marier added his objections to the name of "Centennial" and requested the Commission relook at the name. Seconded by Mr. Bohjanen. Mr. Reinert had a problem with this motion containing two parts - he asked if they could be considered separately. Mr. Marier objected to this and called for a vote. Motion failed on a two to two vote. Mr. Marier moved to approve Mr. Barry Matson as Chairman of the Commis- sion. Seconded by Mr. Bohjanen. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Benjamin asked the Council for some directive as to how a name can be chosen that would be acceptable to all communities. Mayor Benson suggested this should be put before the residents of the communities. Mr. Marier moved to submit to the public the opportunity to suggest a name for this fire district. Seconded by Mr. Bohjanen. Motion carried unanimously. REPLACEMENT POLICE OFFICER Mayor Benson noted that the three individuals being considered for this position had been interviewed by members of the Council before this meeting.
