Bailey Public Safety Direct() SUBJECT: Agreement for Traffic Enforcement in the Landings Subdivision DATE: May 1, 1991 The proposed agreement between the "Landings" development and the City to provide routine patrol for traffic enforcement on private street has been discussed and reviewed by all parties. The last issue is the suggestion from the City Attorney is indemnifying and holding the City harmless from liability incurred from any failure of the City to enforce traffic regulations on the private streets. I discussed the issue with Mr. Maurodis and advised him that I did not think we needed that provision, as we have no more duty to enforce all violations on private streets than we do on public streets. He had no objections. I am requesting the proposed agreement be placed on the City Commissions' agenda at your convenience. 91-048 The LANDINGS of Parkland Association, Inc.
