The Mayor then <br /> pointed out that the Community Services would not reissue a permit <br /> • to any group which misused their park privileges . Mr. Childs said <br /> the Police Department gets a copy of each permit which' is issued and <br /> he is certain they- keep a close watch on each of these events and - <br /> would certainly be requesting the abolition of the permits if they <br /> perceive the drinking of beer posed a serious problem for them.
