So the language that the Board of Elections ultimately decided on although it's not what we decided on and what this Council adopted, it is what's going to be on the ballot. There's not much we can do about it. They have the final say-so on ballot language. FIRE -Chief Eugene Carcioppolo Chief Carcioppolo reported, we received our air compressor. It will be hooked up by the electric company so we can get it started up and running. Our new engine is about 1-2 weeks out before we can put it in service. Everyone's doing driver's training. We have been working on fitting it with all our equipment. We should be getting our windows in the next two to three weeks. Council President Marrie asked, are you still thinking about an Open House? Chief Carcioppolo replied, we are thinking of doing something during Fire Prevention Week in October. We will revisit that. FINANCE -Ron Wynne Mr. Wynne stated, I will reserve my comments when items come up on the agenda. POLICE -Chief Richard Edelman Chief Edelman stated, I have one item on the agenda this evening. I will report when we get to that. PARKS & RECREATION - Eill Thomas Mr. Thomas reported, on Wednesday, September 2nd from 6:00-8:00 p.m., we held our first Healthy Mayfield at Wildcat Sport and Fitness. We had approximately 500 participants attend. It was sponsored by the four communities, the School District, Cleveland Metroparks, County Library and the Cleveland Clinic and merchants from our School District, like our own Orange Leaf which had ice cream and yogurt. Every community there had a fire truck on display. Mayfield Village supplied the generator for electricity. In regards to Wildcat Sport and Fitness, it continues to take shape. Classrooms 131, 132 and 133 are now available for community programming during the day. The Cleveland Clinic has two classrooms for acute care visits such as cold, flu, strep, sinus, minor lacerations and other aches and pains. That will be available first to our Mayfield School District employees at no cost and
