Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council Tuesday, February 22, 2011 Page 5 Historical Society - Mrs. Mills reported that we. have received Highland Heights' annual donation for the care and maintenance of the Historical House. We started the school tours with the children. Center School was the first. We had about 65 children. The next school will be St. Francis. Hillcrest Council of Councils - There was no meeting. There is no report. M.A.R.C. - Dr. Parker reported that M.A.R.C. met on February lOth. There was no quorum, however a number of items were discussed. Some of the programs were reviewed. We also had Mr. Folkman from the School. He discussed various aspects of what they are doing with their adult education and the changes they have made to that as well as other programs. Their brochure is now on-line. It is no longer being mailed to the communities because of cost. Another item of note, they have taken somewhat of a zero tolerance with their programs. If the programs do not make money, they are going to be cut. It doesn't matter if one program makes more money, they won't have a program if they don't make money on it. It's preriy much black and white. It's interesting to see their model or trend in business today that they are following. The next meeting is March 3`d. , Ordinance Review Committee - Mr. Saponaro reported that Ordinance Review met on February 8t . At that meeting we discussed the zoning standards for wind turbines. We are still drafting those standards. We discussed licensing and insurance concerns regarding golf carts in the Village, especially on the trails. We talked about the accessory uses and reviewed Section 1157.06 of the Code. We also talked about Chapters 1128 and 1129 regarding comprehensive storm management, water management and erosion and sed'unent control to update those. We had a presentation by Fire Marshall Mike Girbino regarding photoelectric smoke alarms. It was very interesting. John and Mike were enlightening us as to the difference between the photoelectric versus the ionization. They provided a video presentation on it. It's something that we need to look at our Ordinance to update that as well. More to come on that. It was an excellent presentation.

Recreation Board - Mr. Marrie reported that Recreation Board met on the 15th of this month. We discussed the Wildcat Sampler for the 6th to 8th graders. One of the items that the Board went into detail on was picking up the children afterwards. They worked on the situation with the Police Department so there wasn't such bedlam when the kids were getting out all at one time. We also discussed the chance of buying some higher lounge chairs at Parkview Pool for seniors to get in and out of a little easier.
