Minutes of the Special Meeting of Council <br />Monday, June 3, 2013 <br />Page 2 <br />port-a-potties at those fields. I feel the Village likes to move on to the next project and not finish up <br />what's going on. We've got The Grove going on. We've got green corridors, we've got tunnels, we <br />demolish buildings, we put in rolling hills, and are tlvnking of an ice rink. I am asking you to please <br />take it back to the original plan and at least give us restroom buildings and get rid of the port-a- <br />potties at those fields. Thank you. <br />Steven Hamilton <br />Wilson Mills Road <br />I am also advocating for the restrooms at the soccer fields. I have lived in the Village for 5 months <br />but I have played at those soccer fields for 5 years and paid a lot of money to the Village that I now <br />live in. <br />I don't have a business plan to account for how much money I have provided you and how much has <br />come out for mowing that place. Forgive me for that. However, I did move in to the Village for the <br />amenities. I love the proximity of the Metroparks. I play on the fields. I use the nmning paths. I <br />love everything about it. I ride my bike to those fields. I like going to the bathroom in a port-a-potty <br />as much as the next guy which is not at a11. I tlunk that the plan for putting in, spending the money to <br />pay for the restrooms and having Progressive pay for the pavilion which is great when it rains <br />because there's nowhere to go out there when games get rained out, I think that's a pretty good dea1. <br />Paying in money with a company match on your 401k, that kind of idea. Three minutes, I have no <br />idea. Thank you. <br />Michael Horvat <br />Vice-President <br />Mayfield Soccer Club <br />I am pretty much reiterating what everyone else is saying. To put it into perspective, I am going to <br />have over 300 families at that facility this coming Saturday. That's a lot of people to use two small <br />siinky non-cleansed port-a-potties. We have been paying a good portion I believe for the last couple <br />years in sharing with other organizations that come and use the facilities who are paying, as well as <br />off-season they are still there for a good portion when we are not using them. It just makes sense to <br />have something clean. It doesn't have to be huge, just something nice and clean and respectful that <br />shines goQd on the city. <br />Council President Buckholtz stated, I don't usually comment when people are making comments, but <br />I feel that I have to. Before I get accused of complicating things or asking for a business plan, is it <br />true that we have two stinky port-a-potties at that location for 350 families? Is that the best we can <br />do? <br />Mr. Marrie replied, we don't want port-a-potties. <br />Council President Buckholtz stated, I'm not suggesting this as a replacement for this, but they make <br />some really high-end port-a-potties now. I don't know what they cost, but the gentleman who stated <br />that 350 families answer to you and we are the facility, the home ground field where you are playing, <br />I am kind of shocked to hear that that is indeed an accurate description of what's out there now.
