Minutes of the Special Meeting of Council Monday, June 3, 2013 Page 4 we have been waiting patiently for over 10 years for these facilities. So, on behalf of grandparents, parents, players and particularly little sisters and brothers, please seriously consider the need for these facilities. Thank you. Sean Supler Mayfield Village Recreation Department I work in the Rec Department. This is my 7t' year here. The work that Doug and these guys do on the fields between the softball and our soccer fields, they are probably the best fields that you can find anywhere in this area, probably in Cleveland. The softball fields alone. Those fields are in the best shape. The soccer fields are the exact same way. For restroom facilities, we have port-a-potties. It's something we feel very strongly about, to have flush toilets because these fields are really the best fields around. The things you can bring to these fields in terms of having tournaments up there, full day, full weekend tournaments, it would be very good at this point. Council President Buckholtz asked if there were any other comments. There were none. Council President Buckholtz stated, then we can move on with the agenda or we can entertain the idea of amending the agenda. What I would prefer and would be in favor of would be amending the agenda to get the groundwork done. I just see the urgency weather-wise and I see the necessity to any time we can do anything to drain the ground, I would see amending the agenda for that. We don't have a fu11 Council. This is really a lot of money. I am not suggesting, this is not to be interpreted that I am not for it and I have been on Rec Board 16 years ago and I would totally be for - Mr. Marrie asked, are you asking for both The Grove and the restrooms? Council President Buckholtz replied, I am saying that I would like to amend the agenda. Ms. Calta stated, just because we don't have a full Council tonight and we have a special meeting, according to 121.01(f) "items can be added to the agenda by a majority of Council present". So, yes, you can make a motion to add items to the agenda tonight. We need to have a majority of those that are present to approve that addition to the agenda, so you need 3. Motion to amend the agenda to consider the item of Phase I of T'lze Grove. Council President Buckholtz, seconded by Mr. Marrie, made a motion to amend the agenda to consider the item of Phase I of The Grove.
