CONVENTION & VISITORS BUREAU.
Rodeo Week Road Closure - Request Approval.
Special Events requests the closure of both sides of Manford Ave. along the fog line
from the Rental-All to just past Community Dr. on July 8th through July 13th. The main
concern is safety on the busy road; however, parking revenues are estimated to
increase by approximately $1,500 due to the closure. The Committee recommends
approval of the road closure as described above.

Discussion was heard regarding the decrease in requests for visitor guides, decrease in
