STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve the City Council walking in the parade or provide other direction. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None. DESCRIPTION: Each year, the City Council participates in the annual St. Patrick's Day Parade. The City Council has walked along the parade route, but it has also used a fire truck, cable car, or float in recent years. In 2023, the City Council decided to walk to engage and interact with spectators. Staff is recommending the walking option again this year. If this option is selected, Staff will likely utilize a lead vehicle, either the historic Model A or other truck, that will carry the City Council banner. To move forward with preparations for the parade, Staff is seeking City Council approval of this concept. STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE: None.
