television services for all Orange County cities.
Councilmember May requested staff look into the feasibility of the City
accommodating the request for a parade permit from the South Vietnamese
Armed Forces Parade Committee rejected by the City of Westminster.
Councilmember May also requested staff research a plan for a 4/10 work
week plan for the City's Police Department. He requested Chief Walters
describe the general attributes plus impacts of such a plan. He then
asked staff to prepare a cost comparison of the current Police Department
work schedule to a 4/10 work schedule and submit it to Council within
thirty days.
Mayor Pro Tem Acosta raised the issue of inappropriate methods being used
in the City to collect dog license fees. Police Chief Walters responded
that he had no data on this process but would prepare information on the
matter for Council.
Mayor Pro Tem Acosta also expressed concern with the amount of panhandling
and loitering occurring in parts of the City. Chief Walters responded to
his inquiry.
Councilmember McGuigan inquired as to the cable broadcasting of the
upcoming Cop'er Bowl and the rebroadcasting of Council meetings. Staff
responded that an inquiry would be made into the Cop'er Bowl issue and
that Council meeting rebroadcasts would occur on Tuesday at lO:O0 a.m.,

Councilmember Norton noted fire company staffing was not up to the
standards set forth in the 1977 Fire Protection Master Plan, and suggested
an increase from 63 to 66 full-time employees would comply with the
recommended standards. He also supported construction of a new Fire
Training Facility including a fire tower, possibly through a joint venture
with other Cities.

Fi re Department equipment does not fit in the City's current facilities
which house such equipment.
