Regular Council Meeting 6/19/95 Page 2 <br />COMMENTS FROM MAYOR RINKEIZ <br />Mayor Rinker said Council has been discussing this at length. When we look <br />to the sewers down the road, the general idea of a Sewer Relief Fund, we will <br />basically look to be in the sanitary sewer business for a while. Whatever is <br />voted upon tonight will not end here. He is optimistic there will be an <br />evolutionary process and is confident we will get some results from it. <br />COMMENTS FROM COUNCIL PRESIDENT FIXLER <br />Council President Fixler said the Septic Sewer Relief Fund is something that <br />was thought about a couple of years ago. Everyone must keep in mind that <br />we must go through the diligent process of coming up with what we think <br />will be an acceptable formula for all residents to embrace. All of us have <br />thought at great length about this. It is the first of its kind in Mayfield Village. <br />We are working diligently to find any way possible to come up with more <br />funding. Mr. Fixler said it is important to keep in mind one thing: Mayfield <br />Village government was going ahead because of funding--if we had not <br />received 2.3 million dollars in funding, this would shed a totally different <br />light in terms of what we would be willing to accept from the State EPA. <br />Council President Fixler said there are 125 septic sewers in Ward 1; 147 in <br />Ward 2; 45 in Ward 3; and 86 in Ward 4--a total of 403 in the Village. This <br />affects the community as a whole. He encourages all of Council to vote <br />unanimously yes on this legislation this evening. <br />Council President Fixler noted there is not a formula for disbursement of <br />funds included in the legislation. The formula is complicated and we do not <br />know what the future holds. He noted that everyone who is in the same <br />phase area will receive equal amounts. We will not look to individual <br />incomes, et cetera. Mr. Fixler asked for a motion to amend the agenda to vote <br />on Ordinance No. 95-24 at this time. <br />Mr. Buckholtz, seconded by Mr. Ferrante, made a motion to amend the <br />agenda to consider Ordinance No. 95-24 at this time. <br />ROLL CALL: AYES: All <br />NAYS: None <br />Motion Carried <br />Agenda Amended
