The festival occurred with no major problems and received positive media attention. <br /> The Guild applied for a street closure on September 10-12, 2004 for the second annual festival. <br /> Council continued this application twice previously(May 5 and May 12). There are no changes in the <br /> application and conditions since those Council meetings. <br /> Major Changes from Last Year: The Guild intends to have live music on stages this year. The Guild <br /> asked for permission to have a beer garden,but was denied pursuant to prior Council policy direction. Last <br /> year, the intersection of Hewitt and Colby was kept open and pedestrians visiting the festival were not always <br /> vigilant to the possibility of vehicular traffic through that intersection. This year,Transit will develop an <br /> alternate loop for such events that will allow the intersection to be closed for pedestrian safety. <br /> Permit Conditions: City staff and the Guild discussed,negotiated and approved the permit conditions <br /> attached. <br /> RECOMMENDATION (Exact action requested of Council): <br /> To approve the closure of Colby Ave., Everett to Pacific, from September 10,2004 7 p.m. to September 12, 8 <br /> p.m. for the Pop'N'Arts Festival sponsored by the Snohomish Artist Guild, subject to certain conditions. <br /> . 3 <br />
