To Approve the Consent Agenda Item A. 1 <br /> 2 <br /> Ayes – 5 Nays – 0 Motion carried. 3 <br /> 4 <br /> B. Resolution 7111, Authorizing the Purchase of Festival in the Park T- 5 <br /> Shirts for City Council and Staff 6 <br /> 7 <br />Council Member Mueller indicated that there are Council Members and Staff that are already 8 <br />purchasing T-Shirts so they would need to be reimbursed or decide to donate the fee to the 9 <br />Festival in the Park. 10 <br /> 11 <br />Council Member Mueller added that the purchase be for City Council Members, Staff and 12 <br />Festival volunteers. She then said that the good news is the approximate cost of $600.00 was 13 <br />based on what they are selling the T-Shirts for but, she believes, that the City could pay cost and 14 <br />get all of the volunteers for the $600.00. She further said that she thinks that there is not a need 15 <br />for putting the words Staff or Volunteer on the shirt. 16 <br /> 17 <br />Mayor Marty said that the reason for having a different color for Staff or Council that would help 18 <br />the residents. 19 <br /> 20 <br />Council Member Mueller said that they could achieve the result with a name tag or in another 21 <br />manner rather than using the Staff or Volunteer designation because they would like the shirts to 22 <br />be worn more than once. She then said that they could look into a different color. 23 <br /> 24 <br />Council Member Flaherty said that the different colored shirts would give instant recognition for 25 <br />residents who need assistance. 26 <br /> 27 <br />Council Member Stigney said he is confused about whom Staff is and whether it is those that are 28 <br />signed up to work the Festival or all employees that work in the City. 29 <br /> 30 <br />Community Development Director Ericson indicated that the front office Staff was intending to 31 <br />wear their T-Shirts for a couple Fridays prior to the Festival to promote it. 32 <br /> 33 <br />Council Member Stigney said that he would like to have it state Staff on the backs of the shirts of 34 <br />Staff to set them out. 35 <br /> 36 <br />Mayor Marty would like the Staff shirts to be a bright neon green or something that would stand 37 <br />out. 38 <br /> 39 <br />Ms. Thomas said that the residents will not know what the various colors mean so a single color 40 <br />for all would help residents with who to go to and anyone that is volunteering will know who to 41 <br />go to for helping lost children or for a medical situation. 42 <br /> 43
