Overall, we had a phenomenally good year in terms of boating safety. I don't mean to diminish the impact of that accident, but it was a safe year except for that.

The primary issue, of course, is safety.

We're an outside event, so we just have to adjust, unless of course safety becomes an issue. We've moved a course or two and some vendors, but we're on rain or shine.

The safety of our citizens and visitors are paramount and we're not going to sacrifice safety for the budget, ... You have good years and you have bad years. Just like any other business, you've got to plan for that.

We evacuated neighbors for safety precautions for threats he was making.

Generally, maintenance and improvement of signage is a cost-effective approach to traffic safety.
