The Jaycees have been able to <br />4 <br />raise $2,500 each year in the past, for the July -4th <br />celebration, and now would like the County's support in <br />their request for a $500 contribution, which they would <br />greatly appreciate. <br />Chairman Scurlock talked about setting up a place where <br />donations could be collected from people who attend the <br />fireworks. <br />Commissioner Wodtke inquired if professional people <br />would be hired to do the fireworks show. <br />Mr. Schlitt affirmed that it would cost $1,000 to hire <br />the professionals to put on the hour-long show. He advised <br />that the Jaycees were going to furnish the City with an <br />insurance policy for letting them use their property; the <br />City was also providing a dumpster at the location. <br />Commissioner Fletcher advised that he was a <br />past -president of the Jaycees and he had no qualms about <br />celebrating the greatness of our country, but felt the <br />Jaycees should do the job of raising the money themselves. <br />Motion was made by Commissioner Fletcher that the Board <br />° accept the Assistant Administrator's recommendation of <br />Alternate 1 to deny the request of the Jaycees. <br />The Motion died for lack of a second. <br />APR 141982 15 B9,oK 49 MEMO. <br />
