He also had worries about the potential of a young people getting jammed up over some overzealousness or a mistake. I would have liked to talk about this more, but I did some research and had some long conversations with Safety/Service Director Thomas and feel a lot better about it now. I don't mean any disrespect to the committee, I just would have liked to talk about his more. Thank you. Ordinance 2013-83 adopted 7-0.
