CENTENNIAL FIESTA Mayor recognized Mr. Donald E.
D & M AMUSEMENT Quinsey, Manager of D & M Amuse-
ments, 18411 Jocotal, Villa Park,
who stated that he had provided the amusement equipment and the booths for
various organizations under an agreement with Mr. Frank ~Renjamin, re-
presenting the Centennial Fiesta Committee; that under the terms of the
contract, the sponsoring agency, and not he, was responsible for any re-
quired license or permit fees; that apparently Mr. Benjamin had not taken
this provision into account; that, consequently, under protest, he had
posted $500 with the City to enable the Fiesta to proceed as planned; and
that in the final accounting with the Fiesta Committee, the Committee had
reimbursed him for half the amount posted, $250.
Mr. Quinsey requested that all license fees be waived and that the $500 be
returned~ half to him and half to the Fiesta Committee. He was joined in
this request by Mr. Benjamin.
At the request of the City Attorney, it was moved by Councilman Markel,
seconded by Councilman Herrin and unanimously carried to refer the matter
to the City Attorney for subsequent recommendation to the Council.

the Fiesta Committee had netted $430.67 from the proceeds of the fiesta.
