Mall Street Performer's Program--Informational (memo distributed; guide- lines changes under separate cover) Ernie Drapela, Parks and Recreation, referred to the memorandum and explained the guidelines were essentially the same for 1981 as they were for 1980. The program resumed the first of April. The guidelines were reviewed by the Down- town Association, Parks and Recreation Department, Lane Regional Arts Council, and the Police Department. The only additions were that individuals should have plainly displayed buttons and that there would be no amplification of instruments. Ms. Wooten noted the auditions were once a month. Mr. Drapela noted that in the past this has been adequate. He said that there is enough flexibility if needed. Mr. Lindberg noted that three complaints regarding the performer would result in revocation of the performer's button. He asked if just anyone could register a complaint on any arbitrary basis which would result in the performer being told to leave. Mr. Drapela replied they had not had anyone avail themselves of that opportunity. His department would be very discrete in how they would accept those complaints. It has been a very acceptable program between the merchants and the performers in the mall. He did not anticipate problems. Mr. Lindberg suggested that they might want to tighten up the grievance procedures. e MINUTES--Eugene City Council April 15, 1981 Page 3
