Proposed Hawker and Peddlers Ordinance (draft review)
There was a lengthy discussion about the proposed ordinance.  There was a question as to who would be covered by the ordinance.  Nancy and Jamie will need to verify if vendors such as Schwans would be covered by the ordinance.  Mr. DeBold pointed out that the ordinance would provide some measure of safety for the residents of Chichester, due to the licensure requirements.  Chief Clarke said it would be helpful for the Police Department to know who had licenses.  People who were not in favor of the ordinance did not like the fees ($25.00 application fee; $75.00 license fee; $25.00 back ground check fee).  Some did not feel the ordinance would provide an added layer of safety.  Some felt that we already have too many regulations.  
There will be a public hearing on the matter on June 8, 2010 at 7:00pm.

Other Business
Dallas Dog Hot Dogs:  The requested paperwork was received from Mrs. Kerr.

Ari:  Mr. Bellemere left a message for Richard DeBold that we could move forward and facilitate the easement between he and Mr. Ari.  Nancy will follow up.
Noonans:  Nancy inquired as to the status of the Noonan’s zoning violation.  No one knew if the camper had been removed. Nancy will follow up and ask if the camper has been removed.

Purchasing Policy:  Mr. Paveglio noticed that the highway department made a purchase for over $1,000 with no other quotes attached.  Nancy concurred that the policy needs to be followed and quotes attached as the Auditors questioned purchases over $1,000 and want proof that our policy is being followed.
