�4a, <br /> 1. FemsPolice Department Memo <br /> To: City Council <br /> From: Deputy Chief Greg Lineberry,248 <br /> Date: January 8,2010 <br /> Subject: ABATE Street Closure <br /> The police department is rejecting the proposed ABATE street closure because the size of the <br /> closure includes large sections of downtown streets being used strictly for attendee motorcycle <br /> reserved parking(guests only,not people actually registering their motorcycles in the show). <br /> 1. Street closures have never been used in the past to reserve parking for event attendees <br /> and doing so may establish a precedent we are bound to in the future. <br /> 2. The reserved parking would result in motorcycles coming and going through the closed <br /> event area where pedestrians were moving about and create unnecessary risk to those <br /> pedestrians. <br /> 3. There is sufficient free parking for attendee motorcycles immediately adjacent to the <br /> event at the Everpark Garage or on a first come- first serve basis on surrounding streets <br /> or private parking lots. <br /> The police department supports approval of the street closure under the attached permit <br /> conditions and street closure map. <br /> 4 <br />
