PARADES:
PARADES: Attorney Gersh reported that he had attempted to reconcile the Code of Ordinance
in regards to parades. He felt that the fault laid in the way the ordinances were
written. Section 19-7 and 19-75 grants the Mayor the authority but Section 19-78 grants
lisethe Superintendent the authority. Attorney Gersh ruled, that in his opinion the Mayor
has the authority to grant permits for parades and gatherings. Once the Mayor has
made his decision it is up to all departments to take the necessary steps to comply.
No other city agency has the power to countermand the Mayor's decision. After much
discussion of the issue, the following resolution was presented. i
By Comm. Golder: seconded by Comm. Putney

Eddy Street and College Avenue and that the Chief of Police and the Fire Chief be so
