The Somerset Town Council on Aug. 26 approved the second annual Halloween party and parade, a daytime community event the town ran last year.
The Town Manager told the council the event was done last year and "it's already been budgeted for." Councilors discussed public-safety recommendations from the public safety committee and confirmed the parade will be a daytime route from the school to town hall; staff said they will consult past committee recommendations as they finalize details.
Council moved to approve the event and the parade; the motion passed by voice vote. The town manager will coordinate final safety details with the public safety committee and staff.
Next steps: Staff to confirm safety plan, parade route logistics and participant guidance consistent with recommendations from the public safety committee and prior-year experience.
