Councilman Arkison brought to Council's attention memo
from Superintendent of Light & Power commending Carlos
Gutierrez on his alertness in the apprehension of two
juveniles engaged in a robbery, in area where he was
reading meters. It was the consensus of Council that
City Administrator and Department Head determine
appropriate award to be given to Mr. Gutierrez.
Councilman Arkison expressed concern over the number
of requests for exempt solicitation licenses that are
being requested, and also for the length of time they
are being requested for. City Clerk explained if they
meet all requirements, it is almost impossible to
refuse them, according to our present Code requirements.
Moved by Councilman Arkison, seconded by Councilman Fry
and unanimously carried that City Clerk should review
present Ordinance, governing exempt solicitation licenses,
and report back to Council with recommendation for amending.
