Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council Monday, February 15, 2010 Page 5 placing the flags. They were very much in favor of doing that again this year. This is headed up by Merv and Mary Singer. Commission on Aging = Mrs. Kalina reported that the Commission members helped with our Valentine's luncheon which was last Thursday for the card group. They came in early and helped set up and clean up. A good time was had by all. Dr. Parker asked how many attended. Mrs. Kalina replied, about 50. Give them lunch and they will come. But, they pay for those lunches. They pay 50 cents each time they come. Safetv and Service - Dr. Parker reported that Safety and Service met on Monday, February lst We discussed a number of topics, the first being the Euclid Creek Watershed issue. Doug informed us of the various aspects and information. While we did not have a problem with it, we obviously knew that it would be an issue for Finance as well as Council to decide the dollars being spent. The Wiley Park parking lot was discussed. That had more so to do with the pavers and the other issues we are trying to leverage some dollars. We did not have a problem with that. Some of the other issues like the rescue team and hydrant fees were just typical things we have to pay for. The Police Department is only going to get one interceptor this year as opposed to two. The funds are coming from the Law Enforcement Trust Account. They are trying to conserve. We typically go out for two. The Committee felt that that was fine. The Kardex filing system was discussed, which is a necessity for dispatch at the new police station. Finance Committee - Mr. Saponaro reported that the Finance Committee met this evening. We had 7 expenditures that we have recommended for. approval. We have also recommended for approval4 Ordinances and 2 Resolutions. Historical Society - Mrs. Mills reported that on Wednesday of this week we will have Center School come to do their Ohio tour study at the House from 9-11 and from 11:30-1:00. We will probably have about 60 students. On February 23`d, we will have St. Francis from 10:00-12:00. That was interesting because these schools are now calling us to get their appointments to tour the house which is a good thing. We are very pleased with that.
