Regular Council Meeting Minutes 6-15-09 Page 12 our maintenance man. He's retired and he cuts the grass and he does stuff. He's there almost 8 hours a day. He really likes it. The other project that we are looking in to is to put a movable chair lift to the upstairs. We are pricing that out. We have people that are not able to climb the stairs so we felt that would be a good thing to do for the community. Mrs. Mills has talked to John about it. We are just in the process of bids. Once we get the bids in, we will see what John has to say about this before we do anything. Mr. Saponaro said, okay, if you want that name, just let him know. Mrs. Mills thanked Mr. Saponaro for that information. Hillcrest Council of Councils - Council President Buckholtz deferred to Mrs. Mills. Mrs. Mills reported that she went to the breakfast meeting. Debbie put the information in the packet. Interestingly enough, we have 2977 registered voters here. 70% turned out. Vote by mail was 858. That's kind of interesting. She is hoping that they get over 40-50% in this next election, vote by mail. They are really pushing that. Council President Buckholtz asked if they are cutting people off the rolls who don't vote. Mrs. Mills said 134. The people that they are removing are people that are deceased or no longer live here. A lot of times you see in the register when you look at it all these names. Jane Platten, the Director down there, was very interesting to listen to as far as the process of what happens down there. It was a very very good meeting. Not well attended, but a good meeting. Mrs. Mills brought back this information for everyone. M.A.IZ.C. - Mrs. Mills gave the report in Dr. Parker's absence. The M.A.R.C.

At this meeting the following was discussed: Director Phil Weinburg reported that the woman's summer tennis league will be using Highland Heights' tennis court again this year. Letters went out to the cities and villages requesting annual donations to M.A.R.C. as part of their financial support.

She is glad you are such a willing subj ect.
