MONROE - In a meeting Monday, the City of Monroe Public Safety Committee recommended to the council to amend a special event permit for the Main Street Lighted Christmas Parade and Event, Dec. 7. The north side of the Square, rather than the east side, will be blocked for viewing parade floats after the parade. Lamers buses will provide tours of the city's residential and commercial holiday lighting displays, starting at the Monroe Public Library.
