Public Safety Committee approves permit for Main Street Monroe St. Patrick's Day parade
Summary
The Public Safety Committee approved a special permit for the Main Street Monroe Saint Patrick's Day parade after staff said police had no major concerns; the fire chief flagged that any food vendors must have defined locations and be subject to inspections.
The Public Safety Committee approved a special permit for the Main Street Monroe Saint Patrick's Day parade following a brief staff briefing and a roll-call vote.
A staff member representing the police department told the committee the parade route will be the same as in prior years and that "on the police department side, they really didn't have much concerns, regarding the fire department." The staff member also said Jordan was available for additional questions. The report to the committee included a safety caveat from the fire chief: any food vendors must have a defined location and be subject to inspections before the event.
Chair moved to approve the permit and a second was recorded. During the roll call three 'aye' responses were recorded and the chair declared the motion passed. The committee then considered any other business and adjourned.
The action clears the way for the Main Street Monroe parade to proceed under the condition that any food vendors meet the inspection and location requirements outlined by the fire department. No dollar amounts, road-closure details or special conditions beyond vendor inspections were reported in the meeting record.
