Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council Monday, June 18, 2012 Page 3 PARKS & RECREATION - Bill Thomas Mr. Thomas reported that the feedback on Cruise Night was overwhelmingly positive. We actually had an absolutely beautiful night. The biggest crowd that I have seen. Thank you to the Sun papers for doing a wonderful spread. The photographer did a great job of coverage. The other thing I wanted to get feedback about, we have a very overwhelming positive response to the new tile we put in the bathhouse. Not only from our users but also it is a lot easier to clean when the pitch is done right. It was not done right in 1999. It makes it a lot easier for our crew to clean the facility. It looks absolutely beautiful without any cracks or stains, the really ugly look that we have had for a number of years. It's great to have the tile. ARCHITECT - Ron Dinardo There was no report. PLANNING DEPARTMENT - Ted Esborn Mr. Esborn reported, for those of you who have not seen the Rating the Suburbs issue of the Cleveland Magazine, Mayfield Village ranked 13'h this year out of 75 communities. We were ranked 12'' last year. In ranking these communities, Cleveland Magazine asks for a lot of information. They look at things like the parks, sidewalks, pool, tennis courts, but the main criteria for their rankings are two things, education and safety. This year, the Mayfield districts ranked 23rd. Mayfield Village's specific safety ranked 6d' overall out of 75 communities. It sometimes tough to put together rhyme or reason for the rankings, but I can pull information from last year if anyone wants more detail on where we were and where we are on this. ADMINISTRATION - Diane Wolgamuth Ms. Wolgamuth supplemented Chief Mohr's report. 51 residents have ordered 166 smoke alarms so faz. Also, as a reminder, the Town Hall meeting is next Tuesday at 7:00 here in this room for an update on Village fmances. STANDING COMMITTEE REPORTS: Activities Committee - Mrs. Mills reported, our meeting will be tomorrow night. At that time, we will be evaluating Cruise Night which as Bill said was a very wonderful turnout. The 4?' of July Celebration is on June 30th. Our Suminer Concerts will start after that. Architectural Review Board - Mr. Marrelli reported, Architectural Review Board met on June 14 . We looked at a room addition and approved that.
