Recommendation and Review
Background: The annual Strawberry Festival is a fundraising event to support city and county community projects. The event requires the closure of Warren St., and the use of the City Hall parking lot.

Key Issues:

- Community Development (stage permit)
- Commissioner of Revenue (business licenses)
- COI and endorsement to be submitted prior to the event
