policemen regarding morale and other problems in the
department, and that if they are factual something needs to be

issues are why he wants to appoint someone from the "outside"
to talk to the officers and make a report to the City
commissi.on; that he has received several calls; and that if

Simmons advised these structures may be in the

surveillance as the department has to cover the rest of
the city, also.
B. Andrew Zacharias, 105 Brentwood Drive, appeared and
reported he was cited by Maureen Harvey for having a
Lecreational vehicle parked in the front yard, and
requested information on the citation and the ordinance
