The city council of Green Bay, Wisc., voted 10-2 on Tuesday (Aug. 17) to waive $10,000 of its $48,000 bill for law enforcement for Wisconsin Public TV's
LZ Lambeau event in May,
according to local ABC affiliate WBAY. The outreach event, a belated "welcome home" to Vietnam veterans, drew some 70,000 vets and supporters to Lambeau Field (
Current, June 7, 2010). The Packers NFL team, the Chamber of Commerce and Brown County also have pledged contributions to assist the station, which ran $350,000 over budget for the $1 million event.

WBAY is actually an ABC affiliate and has been since 1992.
