CITY OF CLERMONT ~S SPECIAL COUNCIL M~ETING MAY 2, 1995 Page 3 JayCee Beach Franchise City Manager Saunders brought the Council's attention that a request for a franchise at JayCee Beach has been received that would serve shaved ice and that the lessee had inquired about leaving the cart at the beach rather than removing it daily as required by the standard lease agreement. It was a consensus of the Council Members that all franchises should remove their equipment daily. Also discussed was special events during which times our franchises should not be allowed to have their products at the beach and it was concluded that the three days during Labor Day weekend and the one day for the Lighted Boat Parade would be the only exceptions.
