r\ ") It {, . "'.,..-'1 TUESDAY APRII. 24. 1973 execute the said Contract and Assurances in the name and on behalf of the Applicant, in as many counterparts as may be necessary, and the Clerk of Council is hereby authorized and directed to affix or impress the official seal of the Applicant thereon and to attest the same. The proper officer is directed to forward the said executed counterparts of the said Contract and Assurances to the Government, together with such other documents evidencing the approval and authorization to execute the same as may be required by the Government. Vice-Mayor Boaz, as Chairman of Council's special committee on Traffic and Parking, filed with Council a written report in which was reviewed the efforts and petition from residents on Southside to obtain from the City's Police Department a replacement for the retired police officer who assisted a City patrolmother in directing traffic and safeguarding school children attending Joseph Martin School, when going to and from that school, at the Starling Avenue-Memorial Boulevard intersection. The Committee recommended that, beginning with the next forthcoming school year, the City provide an additional Patrolmother at that intersection, meanwhile reporting that Police Chief Frank A. Gard has agreed to station a uniformed policeman to assist at this intersection for the remainder of the current school year. Council unanimously accepted the Committee's report and recommendations, with Councilman Hartford--though in accord with the solution to the problem--expressing his opinion that matters such as this should be handled administratively. Upon petition of Mr. M. Harrison Joyce, Attorney at Law and Counsel for the Henry County Fair & Exposition, Council unanimously extended--for the Fair & Exposition to be held September 3rd through September 8th, 1973--the Special-Use Permit granted March 23, 1971 for the five-year period 1971 through 1975.
