Fire police to manage road closures for July 3 event; committee discusses parking and police presence
Summary
Cody told the Events Committee he has four fire police (including himself) committed to the July 3 event and that barricades and a plan for road closures are in place; the committee discussed parking options and whether township police should be present.
At the June 1 meeting, Cody said he has four fire police—including himself—committed to traffic control and that barricades are available at the firehouse for road closures planned for the July 3 event. He offered to coordinate day-of operations in Patrick’s absence and said he would provide exact closure locations to the committee when available.
Cody said he could supply backup personnel as needed and recommended having one township police officer present nearby for communication and rapid response, though he did not identify specific traffic-control points. Committee members discussed parking arrangements and agreed Cody would check availability with the Old Newberry Town Church of God and, as a backup, Trends Hair Salon.
Cody said he would get closure locations from Patrick and share them with the committee; committee members requested that those details be provided before next month’s meeting because the July 3 event is one month away.
No formal vote was taken; the committee recorded these as operational planning steps and expected follow-up on closure maps and parking permissions.
