Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council <br />Monday, December 16, 2013 <br />Page 3 <br />Mayor Rinker stated, this might be a good time to recap the year with your fmancial report. <br />Mr. Wynne replied, I will do that at another time during the meeting. <br />POLICE - Chief Edelman <br />T'here was no report. <br />PARKS & RECREATION - Bill Thomas <br />Mr. Thomas reported, we had our Santa Ride this past Saturday. It's been a while since we had <br />that kind of weather with light snow. It was seasonal and nice. I want to commend our fire truck <br />driver Jason Brothers. He does a wonderful job. He is not only just a driver, but he gets down <br />from the truck to make sure that Santa and the elves get across the street and make sure everyone <br />is away from traffic. Thank you Jason for a great job again this yeaz. <br />Council President Buckholtz thanked Bill Thomas for a good year of activities. <br />ARCHITECT - Ron Dinardo <br />There was no report. <br />PLAlVIoTING DEPARTMENT - Ted Esborn <br />Mr. Esborn reported, I have two items this evening. The first is a big thank you to our Service. <br />Department. Last Thursday, QED which is one of our local businesses was having an event at <br />the Holiday Inn. There was heavy snowfall. QED called me on Thursday morning sort of in a <br />panic asking if there's anything we could do to help them clear the sidewalk of snow. They were <br />going to have a lot of foot traffic between their office at 700 Beta and the Holiday Inri. I told <br />them that it's not something that we normally do, but given the extreme weather, I would check <br />with our Service Department. Within an hour the entire west side of Beta was cleared. QED was <br />very appreciative. These little things that we are able to do are huge with businesses. I recall <br />about a year ago, Freedonia, another business on Beta had an issue with their intemal sidewalk <br />and our Building Department was able to go out and look at it that day. These little things are so <br />critical with businesses and they appreciate it so much. Thanks Doug and Service. The second <br />item, the DOPWIC update, we did get some encoura.ging initial feedback on our application. <br />There's a key meeting this Thursday ofthe DOPWIC Committee that I am going to go to. Rather <br />than give all the details of the possible scenarios now, I will wait and get the information from <br />that meeting and brief everybody after that. <br />ADMIIVISTRATION - Diane Wolgamuth <br />There was no report.
