The Commission pointed out that the Youth Advisory Council would un­doubtedly like to meet with the Juvenile officers of the City, the Chief of Police, the Director of Public Safety and other employees that could supply them with information and explain various problems that arise. The Council was advised that the City Manager could arrange for these people to meet with the Council whenever they desired.
