Consideration of Approval of Block Party Application for Red Clover Lane 250 251 City Administrator Heitke summarized the Staff report, stating Staff recommends approval. He noted 252 Lot 4 did not sign the petition and they called today regarding opposition to the block party. 253 254 Susan Culp, 175 Red Clover Lane (Lot 4,) stated when the petition was presented to her, she 255 indicated she had a family funeral service that day and did not feel a party was appropriate. At that 256 time, she was told the party would not take place; however, in calling the City today she was 257 informed it was on the agenda. 258 259 Mayor Bergeson noted if the application, with a proposed date of this Saturday, is not approved the 260 block party cannot occur. He asked about alternatives and suggested the barricades be moved. 261 262 Police Chief Pecchia stated the barricades were probably placed to set aside space for movement of 263 the party, but to not be overbearing on taking space that is not needed. .64 65 Councilmember Carlson asked what time the service begins. Ms. Culp stated it starts at 3:00 p.m., 266 dinner at 5:30 p.m., then a tree planting. 267 268 Councilmember Carlson asked about details of the block party. City Police Chief Pecchia stated there 269 would be a party wagon, but to his knowledge no band is set to appear. 270 271 Councilmember Dahl asked about moving the barricades a few houses down with the notation it is 272 due to a memorial service. She noted the wagon, food, etc. must have been ordered some time in 273 advance. 274 275 City Administrator Heitke stated his understanding is the block party application is to propose a party 276 on a public right-of-way. Mayor Bergeson stated if the party were in a yard they would not need 277 permission. 278 279 Councilmember Reinert asked for a recommendation other than canceling the party. He stated items 280 have already been rented and there is acceptance from almost all of the neighbors. He recommended 281 approval if the barricades can be moved down a few houses. 282 283 Councilmember Reinert moved to approve the block party application for Red Clover Lane with the 284 conditions of moving the barricades across Squirrel Road between Block 2, Lot 1 and Block 4, Lot 1; 285 and Red Clover Lane between Block 2, Lot 8, and Block 1, Lot 2 and that approval of the party be 286 obtained by the owner of Block 4, Lot 1.
