Special Session 936, Minutes June 30, 1969 Page 10 which would include the west portion. Mr. Guidera asked for an early resolution so the might live within the contractual obligations which they have and he said he wants to correct the date he gave last week of July 9th ~.this should be July 10th - when the options which have been assigned to them expire and as of this date there is no indication they will be extended on the part of the sellers. S~ER SCHEDULE OFMEETINGS OF COUNCIL: ~yor Kaufman suggested that the Council set a summer schedule of meetings as follows: July 7th and August 4th, 1969, and as suggested heretofore, special meetings can be called if deemed advisable. Councilman Grimm moved accordingly. Motion seconded by Councilman Epstein and unanimously carried. ~iayor Kaufman inquired whether any member of the public desired to present any matter not on the agenda~ there was no response. TRAFFIC CONTROL - NORTH A~ SOUTH AND OLIVE - HANLEY AND OLIVE: Councilman Lieberman called attention to the fact that another serious accident occurred recently at the corner of North and South Road and Olive Boulevard at night, when the red lights were flashing.

City Manager Henry observed there had been no agreement, however, whereupon Councilman Werner recalled that at that time the matter was to go back to the Park Commission.
