Roll Call: AYES: All NAYS: None Mr. Busa, seconded by Mrs. Cinco, made a motion to enact Ordinance No. 2000-44. Mr. Metzung said it is $27.50/ton delivered. The $29.00 is if you had to have a piler machine come in but we don't do that. Roll Call: AYES: All NAYS: None Resolution No. 2000-14, entitled, "A Resolution in support of Issue 204, A 1.9 Mill Operating Levy, placed on the ballot by the Mayfield City School District." Introduced by Mayor Rinker and Council as a Whole. Motion Carried Rules Suspended Motion Carried Ordinance Enacted Mr. Busa, seconded by Mrs. Cinco, made a motion to adopt Resolution No. 2000-14. Roll Call: AYES: All NAYS: None Motion Carried Resolution Adopted 1 OPEN PORTION - 3 minute limit imposed by Chair. Those who wish to speak must first state their name and address. This open portion is limited to discussion pertaining to the items under "New Business" only. Sandy Batcheller, 6784 Wilson Mills Road, said she attended the last S.O.M. Center Road Widening Committee meeting. Her recollection during the discussion of the widening is that there were state funds allocated for landscaping. For some reason $400,000 comes to mind. At that meeting, there was a proposal for an elaborate brick wall covering the back yards of three houses on Aintree North and Wilson Mills not to exceed $275,000. Her understanding is that was taxpayers' money that would be doing that landscaping. If that is the case, she does not think they should be getting taxpayers' dollars for their landscaping. Whatever the total cost of funds designated for landscaping by the State--that large amount should not be going to a little parcel of property. She knows they asked them to come back with another recommendation for lower figures. Whatever the figures are, if it is coming out of taxpayer dollars and the rest of the landscaping isn't, then she does not think it should be done. Council President Marquardt said he thinks those items are still under discussion at this point by the committee.
