PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE PROCLAMATION Mayor Lacy read a proclamation declaring the week of May 20-26, 2006, as National Safe Boating Week. MAYOR'S REPORT Mayor Lacy said the Classy Chassis event was successful this year with 362 entrants compared to approximately 200 entrants in 2005. He added there was some concern expressed of the candy being thrown from entrants vehicles during the parade as children were running into the street to collect it. He commended everyone involved including Teresa Allen who spent many hours ensuring a successful Classy Chassis event and asked Teresa to convey thanks to the other staff that participated in the event. Mayor Lacy personally thanked City Attorney Chuck Zimmerman for 22 years of contracting service with the City of East Wenatchee. He said the decision to hire an in-house attorney had nothing to do with lack of confidence or dissatisfaction with Mr. Zimmerman or his firm. He said Mr. Zimmerman has been an extremely knowledgeable and professional attorney representing the City. There have been many times over the years that advice from legal counsel has not only saved the City money but simply helped the City through periods when they might not have done so otherwise. He added the decision to hire an in- house attorney is not an issue of service we have received but rather something that will constitute a savings to the City. Mayor Lacy then addressed Mr. Zimmerman and said, "on behalf of myself and the City I know we are going to continue to have a relationship with you and Ogden Murphy Wallace from time to time when needed. In terms of the retainer or the service that you have provided please accept my heartfelt thanks".
