' Dear Mabel,
For the 'enfh c-^secutive y...,r the Fort Collins police hsve liven Pedestrain
v oty instruction to kindergalLOO V5piIS in the annual "I WaiK Safely" program,
which is conducted in cooperation with Poudre School District.
This year 289 five-year old chi'.&en recelvea instruction under the actual
traffic conditions they will experience while going to and from school. Detective
Dave 'Feldman was in charge of tho program for the police department and instruction
was given to.the children by offices David Mickelson and Ed Swartz. Each child
participating received a white button with red letters proclaiming "I Walk Safely."
The buttons were provided through donations from policemen.
This oafety nrogram.is unique because it uc Curs in _ctual traffic conditiohr
and those of us who have worked on it over the years,are convinced thpt it 1-
superior to the nationally publicized programs which provide safety instruction
in mkiature towns set up in shopping centers.
I appreciate the cooperation of the police in this program and hope toe! you
will publically commend them during a City Council meeting.
Sincerely your,

Petition to vacate a portion of black Street referred to
City Attorney for Ordinance preparation
City Attorney March referred to the memorandum and recommendation on this item.
COVNIE7+WFION5: This type matter would normally be referred to the Planning and
Zoning Board for recommendation; However, this is only a technical correcti.oi:
and would not appear to require any study or reconmtendation by that Board.
Therefore, it is recoirmended that the council by motion refer the mattF~ to the
City Attorney for preparation of an ordinance vacating the excess portion " of the
street, to be presented at the. next Council meeting.
Couuncilman Reeve,-,,o.de a motion, seconded by Councilman Gray, to refer the matter

Request for encroachment on Street Right -of -Way by First
National Bank given tacit approval,
Mayor Preble stated if Council had no objection to this, the Administration had
unu power to grant such a request.
RECUTI ND.ATIONS: This matter does not require Council action, out is brought
to You. attention because of the substantial construction which would be made
if the permit were granted. The Director of Public Worts will grant tl,
permit unless the Council objects. Therefore, unless there is objection, no
action is necessary.
