Regular Council Meeting Minutes <br />8-16-10 <br />Page 29 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Mrs. Eisenberg asked to address Council. <br />Marge Eisenberg <br />Seneca Road <br />Ron, I heard you say something about the lights. We have one light on Seneca that I have and <br />several other people here have paid for for years. Are you saying you are going to reduce our <br />taxes because of it or are you going to give us another light or what? <br />Mr. Wynne replied, no. <br />Mrs. Cinco stated, I have no lights. I am paying for your lights. <br />Mrs. Eisenberg stated, I have a light. I paid for the light. <br />Mr. Wynne replied, it's for street lighting for the entire Village. Every business, every resident <br />is assessed. It is four one-hundredths of a percent of the property value as an assessment to help <br />pay for the maintenance of the lighting and electricity of the Village. <br />Mrs. Eisenberg asked, so we are all paying for the lights whether you have a light or not. <br />Mr. Wynne replied, yes, that's correct. <br />Mrs. Eisenberg asked, now the other thing. Would you please straighten out the rainbarrels so <br />that everybody understands something about these rainbarrels? What about the water that goes <br />to the front? <br />Mrs. Mills replied, there will be a workshop on that. <br />Council President Pro Tem Marrie stated, they are not mandatory. <br />Mr. Saponaro stated, if people want to put them in, we have to have an ordinance in place so <br />that, you don't want them in the front of the house and you don't want one with a smiley face on <br />it, you want to make sure that they are being regulated properly. But there's no mandatory <br />installation of rainbarrels. But there's folks, if someone wants them, this is what you will need to <br />follow. On August 25th, there is a rainbarrel workshop here in Mayfield Village. That will <br />provide you with more information, but there's nothing mandatory. <br />Mrs. Eisenberg stated, thank you very much. <br />ADJOURNMENT <br />Mrs. Mills, seconded by Mr. Saponaro, made a motion to adjourn.
