<br />23/ <br />Regular Council Meeting <br />9/19/94 <br />Page Five <br />Mr. Hovancsek said it is not the Army Corps of Engineers' problem. It is a public health <br />problem. (After the Board of Health), the next level is the Ohio EPA. The bulk of the <br />problem is not in Mayfield Village, but the Village is receiving the result of the problem. <br />Nir. Buckholtz said he wants to let everyone lcnow it is not just a problem with this <br />(D M group--it runs through l?us ward (Ward 4) and affects many homes there. He knows Mr. <br />M ?Iovancselc and Mayor Rinker have been involved. It seems to be a slow-moving <br />Q situation. The County Engineer is working on the problem. Before people talk of <br />drudging the dirt, he thinks the point source has to be remedied. Mr. Buckholtz said if <br />z it takes coordinating a group of citizens to work with himself, he is willing to do so. He <br />? thinks they must stop the contamination from coming in. He does not know if it can be <br />done the other way around. <br />Ntayor Rinker said if a person in the neighborhood would be a group captain (someone <br />people would call if they had any specific complaints), then that person would call Bill <br />Buckholtz or Village Hall. <br />A member of the audience said they do not think a trough will work and asked what <br />can be done about the sewer gas. Mr. Buckholtz came out to the house and asked if the <br />Fire Department could flush it out. He said he would make a phone call and nothing <br />ever happened. <br />Chief Mohr said unfortunately there is no way they can get down there and they would <br />have to run the hoses across the street. <br />Mr. Samac saicl he contacted Chief Forte of Mayfield Heights who promised he would <br />do that. He said his men went out and flushed gallons of water down the sewer. <br />Mrs. Graham said they ran the hydrant into the street. <br />A resident in the audience asked what can be done about the sewer gas. <br />Mayor Rinker said he expects the County will keep going after source points. <br />Mr. BuckYzoltz said he will coordinate with the residents and help get everyone <br />together. They will contact the agencies. <br />Mayor Rinker agreed that was a good idea.
