I&#8217;m highly impressed with his speech asking for individual council members to work with the youth. Larry Campbell asks what can be done. Graves responds with &#8220;to get to know you better&#8221;. Great answer!<\/p>\n<p>American Legion Riders will be coming through Danville in August. It&#8217;s a great event for a great cause. 400-500 will be stopping in Danville on August 18th at Post 325 around 5PM. Proceeds go to children that have lost parents in military service. <\/p>\n<p>Tonight&#8217;s new business is appropriating money for a Homeland Security grant for fire department personal protective gear. We&#8217;ll also have an ordinance that will add $5 to every Danville criminal and traffic case to pay for the new electronic summons system.<\/p>\n<p>On to the business part and then the around the horn comment time. <\/p>\n<p>No discussion of the fire department gear. Police Chief Philip Broadfoot explains the electronic summons system. It will transmit driver&#8217;s license information directly to the courts to make errors less likely. This will not work on out of state licenses. This passes 9-0.<\/p>\n<p>Around the horn starts with Joe King introducing Telly Tucker, new economic development director. <\/p>\n<p>James Buckner does his thanks.
