Adam- Can we get a clarification on if this is a run or a race? We tend to look at these events differently if they are
timed events, as traffic control tends to be more of a concern. I cannot read the map at all, do they intend on running in
the street and if so, will then need any traffic control?

Mercer Park Parking lot is available. They should understand ( I don’t want to even think about this) that if there is an
overnight snow event depending on the depth of the snow it will be very difficult for us to have the parking lot and all of
st
the sidewalks cleared by 9:00 am. I understand snow on December 1 is unusual but weather-wise nothing seems to be
usual anymore. It appears from their map that the start is located at the East entrance or Mercer’s parking lot. The
closest electricity is appx. 300 ft west in the shelter. They should plan for a generator.

Adam – The applicant should remind participants to be courteous of others using the sidewalks (assuming this will take
place on sidewalks) and access to private property must be maintained. If streets are to be closed, affected property
owners must be notified in advance of the event and regulation barricades must be used…
