Regular Council Meeting Minutes <br />6-15-09 <br />Page 12 <br />our maintenance man. He's retired and he cuts the grass and he does stuff. He's there almost 8 <br />hours a day. He really likes it. The other project that we are looking in to is to put a movable <br />chair lift to the upstairs. We are pricing that out. We have people that are not able to climb the <br />stairs so we felt that would be a good thing to do for the community. Mrs. Mills has talked to <br />John about it. We are just in the process of bids. Once we get the bids in, we will see what John <br />has to say about this before we do anything. Mr. Saponaro said, okay, if you want that name, <br />just let him know. Mrs. Mills thanked Mr. Saponaro for that information. <br />Hillcrest Council of Councils - Council President Buckholtz deferred to Mrs. Mills. Mrs. <br />Mills reported that she went to the breakfast meeting. Debbie put the information in the packet. <br />Interestingly enough, we have 2977 registered voters here. 70% turned out. Vote by mail was <br />858. That's kind of interesting. She is hoping that they get over 40-50% in this next election, <br />vote by mail. They are really pushing that. Council President Buckholtz asked if they are cutting <br />people off the rolls who don't vote. Mrs. Mills said 134. The people that they are removing are <br />people that are deceased or no longer live here. A lot of times you see in the register when you <br />look at it all these names. Jane Platten, the Director down there, was very interesting to listen to <br />as far as the process of what happens down there. It was a very very good meeting. Not well <br />attended, but a good meeting. Mrs. Mills brought back this information for everyone. <br />M.A.IZ.C. - Mrs. Mills gave the report in Dr. Parker's absence. The M.A.R.C. Board meeting <br />was held on Thursday, June 4th at the Board of Education. At this meeting the following was <br />discussed: Director Phil Weinburg reported that the woman's summer tennis league will be <br />using Highland Heights' tennis court again this year. Letters went out to the cities and villages <br />requesting annual donations to M.A.R.C. as part of their financial support. Mayfield Village <br />received a check and expenditure reimbursements for the MBA to close out the 11t' season. <br />They turned forms to establish M.A.R.C. as a non-profit organization. The next Board meeting <br />will be held July 2°d at 7:00 p.m. at Parkview Pool. <br />Ordinance Review Committee - Mr. Marquardt reported that there was no meeting. There is no <br />report. Council President said we do have those items to get to. We will do a fresh agenda on the <br />oil and gas wells. <br />Planning and Zoning - Mr. Marquardt reported that there was no meeting. There is no report. <br />Recreation Board - Mr. Marrie said we don't meet during May and August, but a couple <br />comments. We still need volunteers for a couple of events coming, the summer concert series. <br />If you are interested, please sign up. Danielle is signing up volunteers for the Summer Sizzler. <br />Give her a call. We could use some volunteers for that also. That's a very large event. The next <br />meeting we will have won't be until September 16th. He also would like to thank all of the <br />departments and their associates for all of the hard work they did on the event as they have done <br />in the past. It's well appreciated. Patsy, thanks for the compliment, but the reason he was up <br />pulling weeds is his wife Carol and Jean Britton tied him to the wheelbarrow. Mrs. Mills said, <br />she knows, they told her. She is glad you are such a willing subj ect.
