Regular Council Meeting Minutes 6-21-10 Page 3 PARKS & RECREATION - Bill Thomas Mr. Thomas reported that summer is off and running. Parkview Pool opened up on time. Attendance has been good. Passes have been selling well. Our summer camps are off and running. Unfortunately due to the economy our enrollment in the summer camps is down a little bit, but we are not the only camp. Just about every recreation department in Northeast Ohio reports lower enrollment. We normally have 150 for our Sports N More. We have 121. We are still surviving and anticipate to at least break even. ARCHITECT - Ron Dinardo Adding to Chief Dearden's report about the police station, Mr. Dinazdo reported that the roofing, masonry, interior studs are about 85% complete. Fire protection is about 80% complete. They are working on the interior mecha.nical, electrical and plumbing. That's approximately 2/3rds complete. They are putting in the exterior windows and overhead doors. It's on schedule and looking really good. HUMAN SERVICES - Eunice Kalina There was no report. PLANNING DEPARTMENT - David Hartt Mr. Hartt reported that this is the first Council meeting since being retained in this capacity by the Village. He appreciates ha.ving been so retained. It's going reasonably well, but you and the Administration are better judges of that than he is.

We are going to be looking at what to do in the short run, mid-term and long-term and obviously part of that will be judging what short, mid-term and long-term are in terms of moving toward temporary steps that the Village should take looking towazd achieving the 2020 Vision Plan. Council President Buckholtz added,, you are also looking across the street. He spoke with the Mayor earlier. It's good from a marketing standpoint. It gets the word out there that there are azeas to be developed. You never know what kind of entrepreneurs will come to the surface. STANDING COMMITTEE REPORTS: Activities Committee - Mrs. Mills reported that the last meeting was May 18t'. At that time they recapped the Pancake Breakfast. It went very well. A special thanks to the Girl Scouts and Key Club and Service Department for all of the work that they do. That's the only reason why this can be a very nice happening for the mothers in the Village. The summer concerts are in
