Council agrees to place road-closure request for Broadway exit and Grama March on next meeting agenda
Summary
Councilors discussed a request to permit a parade/road closure (Broadway exit out of the courthouse for the Grama March) and agreed to place the request on the regular agenda for a vote next week.
Councilors discussed a request to permit a road closure for a march that would exit across from Sorrento's and the Hallmark store and agreed to place the request on the next regular meeting agenda for formal action.
A requester had previously been denied and proposed the Broadway exit as an alternative route. Council members said it is preferable to document approval in advance; the meeting record notes the planned closure would run roughly from 3:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. on the scheduled day. Participants mentioned the event occurs on a Saturday and that organizers typically begin moving at 4:00 p.m.; the council accepted a staff recommendation to place the request on next week's regular agenda so members can vote.
Councilors also observed that the city sometimes records votes on items that have already occurred for the sake of recordkeeping. The discussion did not include a formal vote to approve the road closure during this meeting; councilors instead scheduled the item for a future vote.
