There is no report. <br />Cemetery - Mrs. Mills reported that the three communities, Mayfield Village, Mayfield Heights <br />and Highland Heights, have been invoiced for their annual donations to the cemetery care. I <br />have been talking to 'a contractor that specializes in monument repair. We have some <br />monuments that need to be repaired. This man was highly recommended. I am waiting to see <br />what his opinion will be. We may have to go out to bid. <br />Citizen's Advisorv Board - Mr. Marrie reported that Citizen's Advisory Board met on the 21St <br />Jim Mason was re-elected as Chairman. We swore in Brenda Bodnar and Tom Piteo, our new ? <br />members on the Board. During the January meeting which we did not cover last Council ?I <br />meeting, John Marrelli gave an outstanding presentation on pre-sale inspections in great detail <br />with handouts. He answered every question that we had. He felt very strongly that we didn't <br />need it in Mayfield Village. Everyone agreed. We discussed the pros and cons. Some of the <br />cities that have pre-sale inspections, values in homes went down. It didn't add anything to the <br />value of the home. We also discussed the Greenway Corridor and the Wiley Park projects in <br />detail and also the grants that we have received from those two projects to be able to proceed <br />with them. Doug reported on the road conditions that we have and the repairs needed to them. <br />We also discussed our plan for the next three years of what projects we have done according to <br />the budget. Merv and Mary Singer have done their usual outstanding job and went into detail at <br />the meeting describing our Memorial Day Service for the Veteran's at the Cemetery. We <br />decided that we are going to go ahead again this year and do the Malachi House and Veteran's <br />Hospital donations again with toothpaste, soap and shampbo and all of the things that they need. <br />We will put that back in motion this year because it was so successful last year. Very frankly, an <br />awful lot of people donated a number of items. It took them a couple of trips to take care of <br />everything. <br />Commission on Aging - There was no meeting. There is no report. <br />Safety and Service - Dr. Parker reported that most of the items were covered in Caucus. They <br />are very routine items in general, some budgetary items. <br />Finance Committee - Mr. Saponaro reported that Finance Committee met this evening as well <br />th <br />as last Monday the 14. We have approved 13 expenditures as well as 4 Ordinances.
