Wanda Doyle gave an update on the Beach Bum Parade. She stated one of the things the organizers are doing is putting publicity out with guidelines and rules for the parade. The organizers
are utilizing the Tybee Breeze, Savannah Morning News, WTOC, and WSAV for getting the word out. Organizers, Police, Fire Officials and City Staff have been meeting since October. A
lot of good has come from the publicity in the form of businesses and individuals offering money, etc. to offset the cost of the event. She intends to present a list to council containing
the rules for the parade, how many police officers are needed and locations, how many barricades are needed, all thing pertaining to public safety. The police department has been very
cooperative as well as the organizers and this has been a good learning experience for everyone involved. Doyle said before the parade the rules will be handed to all participants and
they will be required to sign a document stating they understand those rules and accept the repercussions if the rules are broken by their group which will result in the group being
asked to leave the parade.
Recognition for Planning Commissioners Jay Burke, Randi Bryan and John Major was postponed.
