Bruce Dunams provided an update regarding his meeting with the County. They
discussed the trucks being taken to a commissary and product mix. The County
would like to maintain control of the process. Bruce also advised he had met with
Debra Fritz. Her two main concerns are the cost to update the trucks and the 500'
rule. After much discussion, the NI/CE Council Committee remained committed to
maintaining the 500' distance from schools. There was also discussion regarding
the G.P.S. system and it was decided to continue the evaluation of whether and how
this technology could be useful.

indicated we could repeal the current ordinance, contract out, or that neighborhood
associations could use the issue as a fundraiser. When asked by Mr. Hayes, Julie
