He asked that if Council has any problems with these costs that they let him know now. <br />Mayor Carmen said that the floats will cost approximately $5,500, the balloon will cost <br />approximately $3,750, and the fireworks will cost $4,999. There is additional entertainment costs <br />of about $3,000 and charges for tents and a sound system. He said we currently have <br />underwriring between $6-7000 toward the floats and balloon. The underwriting we have received <br />does not include the dollars we will receive from the rib burn-off participants and food vendors. <br />He said the vast majority of the event is probably underwritten. We will take in a percentage for <br />the rides and games and he thinks it will be close to "a wash" or better. Mayor Carmen said our <br />past experience has been plus or minus $1,000 and he thinks that is where we will be this year. <br />Mr. Basile said that volunteers aze needed <br />Mrs. Cinco asked who was underwriting the petting zoo. <br />Mayor Carmen said that no one is underwriring the petting zoo and asked that if anyone has any <br />problems with these numbers to let him know now so that adjustments can be made. <br />Mrs. Mills said she has a problem with the balloons about safety. <br />Mayor Carmen said that he has talked to the company who is providing the balloon and it can be <br />taken under the wires, etc. without a lot of problems. <br />Wilev Field Roair - Discussion was held. <br />Mark Fixler (in the audience) said that he received a bid on the worst case scenario if the fields <br />would be totally "trashed" after Village Days, of $7,000 for about 21/2 weeks work. <br />Mayor Carmen suggested that specifications be drawn for the worst case scenario and be given to a <br />few individuals. Then, he suggested before anyone is authorized to do the work that: <br />1) we talk to Gus Amendola and the Service Department to see how much they can do <br />2) we get written quotations from whoever can do the rest of the work <br />Mr. Pietrafese said that he would work with Mr. Amendola. He does not want to have a delay of <br />the usage of the fields. <br />Mayor Carmen said that Council could authorize up to a certain number of dollars to do the repair <br />work. <br />Mr. Amendola said the biggest problem with the field is that it does not drain. <br />Discussion was held. Mr. Pietrafese will work with Mr. Hovancsek about drainage ideas. Mr. Hovancsek will shoot <br />grades.
