make its recon~endations to the Council. Mayor Pro Tem Acosta, and

process.
Mr. Kim McPeck, 1823 S. Ross, requested a waiver on the prohibition of
the use of fireworks in Memorial Park and the fees for having a City

referred Mr. McPeck to Allen Doby, Executive Director of Recreation and
Community Services, to explore the feasibility of this alternative.
Mr. John Williams, 1246 S. Sycamore, appeared before Council as a
follow-up to a letter he had previously written to them. He expressed

additional four-way stops. The Council asked staff to review the matter
and to prepare a response to Mr. William's letter.
Mr. Jeffrey Burns, 610 E. Atica Ave., Huntington Beach, expressed concern
with the lack of Police response for assistance he personally

requests for police assistance.
