Council approves amendment to Chamber agreement to fund July 4 parade security
Summary
The council approved Resolution No. 1881, authorizing the mayor to execute Amendment No. 1 to the Chamber of Commerce service agreement and break out previously authorized parade security funds — $8,500 for barriers, $2,500 for overtime for six city staff and $4,000 to the Chamber for security and event staffing.
The Enumclaw City Council on June 22 approved Resolution No. 1881, authorizing an amendment to the Chamber of Commerce provision-of-service agreement to allocate funds for July 4 parade security.
Parks Director Lina Hicks told the council the resolution would allocate $15,000 previously authorized by council: $8,500 for parade-route barriers to line the entire route, $2,500 to cover overtime for six additional city staff to help manage the parade, and $4,000 to the Chamber to hire security and event staffing. "The funds have already been authorized by council. This would just kind of break it up, of how we're going to spend it," Hicks said.
Council action: The council moved, seconded and approved the resolution by voice vote.
Why it matters: The resolution clarifies spending for public-safety logistics at a major community event taking place July 4, including barrier installation and additional staff/overtime and supports coordination with the Chamber.
