Village council reviewed a street‑closure request for every Thursday in July to host motorcycle nights and family events organized by Beck’s Garage in conjunction with radio station QFM 96. Organizers proposed concerts from about 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., vendor or food‑truck space, and family activities; the presenters said the event is planned for four Thursdays in July.
Police and staff recommended closing the center‑of‑town streets for safety and to allow space for food trucks and vendors; staff noted that if streets remain open, the event could still occur but without the benefits of managed crowd control and vendor placement. The chief and staff said they would assign at least one officer to the event if streets are closed and suggested additional sheriff’s auxiliary resources if attendance warrants. Council discussed a 9 p.m. music cutoff to reduce noise complaints and asked staff to include conditions in any approval (band placement, cutoff time, police presence).
The street‑closure application will be on the next council agenda for a public hearing; council members asked staff to ensure direct notice to nearby residents and to include conditions addressing band placement, cutoff time and trash/cleanup.
