Taylor and Graf also object
to the lack of safeguards em.
bodied in the proposal. Com-
ments Graf, "I don't think this
has been gone into deeply
enough. Will it help those who
need it? How will it be admin-
istered?"
GOODMAN calls day care a
top city priority, refuting the
arguments offered by his oppo-
nents, by saying, "The proposal
may not call for licensing but
state law does."
Taylor has called for police
foot patrols as the basis for
more community control of the
department. She claims this
would give residents more con-
tact with the officers and cut
down captial costs since fewer
vehicles would be required.
Graf argues that City Council
is the appropriate body for con-
trolling the police department.,
She likes foot patrols as an idea,
but questions the cost involved.
Goodman favors a community

pointed members from minority
groups. Goodman also advocatesc
