6 -a. Discussion Dip Net Report 2008
Parks Recreation Director Frates and Police Lt. K. Wannamaker reviewed significant
activities as related to their respective departments. Frates noted revenues were up
from 2007, mostly attributed to fee increases, and the Harbor Commission had
reviewed the report and recommended consolidating signage on South Spruce Street
and placing directional signs along the bluff directing people to South Spruce Street.
Wannamaker reported the two extra seasonal officers attributed greatly to the
operation and estimated the call volume was cut in half as a result.
