All yeas Motion passes PUBLIC HEARING None. ITEMS FOR CONSIDERATION 1. Consideration of Special Event Activity Request/MI Junktiques Collection LLC City Manager Moore informed Council that both of these events are similar to the events held last year and will be one day only. The largest change is the request to close Monroe Street from Main Street to the alleyways behind the building. Reindel suggested that the motion approving the events should be amended to remove the language “including mobile food vendors”. Council still wanted to discuss mobile food vendors further, and this would be done at the January 20th quarterly roundtable. Once Council determines the regulations for mobile food vendors, they can move forward with approval of the food vendors for these events. Rix agreed that Council needed to discuss food vendors at the workshop on January 20th and to come to some type of resolution. Mobile food vendors will be placed first on the quarterly. Misteravich had not wanted to change the original motion. Thought approval of food vendors would be done on a case-by-case basis. This event had been approved in previous years with the food vendors. However, with the issue being on the quarterly, he is ok with the amended motion. Kathy Osebold, the business owners organizing this events, believed food trucks were good for the City. Food trucks are a good start up for businesses. Specialized food trucks have a following and bring people into the City. Food trucks are important to the retail businesses.
