Regular Council Meeting 12-16-02 Page 7 Item #18 -discussion of a motion authorizing a payment not to exceed $6,056 for the purchase and installation of two David Clark headsets for number 611 and number 621 for B&C Communications in Parma, Ohio. This is for the Fire Department. The Committee recommended approval. Item #19 - a motion authorizing payment of $4,500 to Stryker Company for a new ambulance cot. This would be a 2"a ambulance cot which, as we have found, will work very well. The Committee recommended approval. [Item #20] -discussion of a motion authorizing payment of $4,757.90 to the City of Cleveland Division of Water for the water used to water the Soccer Fields. And The Committee recommended approval. The Service Director feels that it's most likely that this amount will be significantly less next year since they will be more established fields and hopefully the summer won't be as much a drought. (Chief, was there anything else with the ambulance that we needed to--? Chief Mohr replied no.) That was it. Hillcrest Council of Councils - Mr. Marne said no report; there was no meeting last month. Historical Society -Mrs. Mills said the Historical Society had their annual Christmas Dinner on December 11th and about 65 people were there. Everybody missed a good dinner; they had a nice buffet. The quilters will not be meeting until the beginning of January; they're taking some vacation time. M.A.R.C. - Mr. Marne said M.A.R.C. Board met on December 5th. There were a coule of discussions; one was the MBA Program (which I will cover a little bit more in detail later which is very successful); also amulti-level chess program.

Ordinance Review Committee - Mr. Marquardt said no report. Planning_and Zoning - Mr. Marquardt said Planning & Zoning had a workshop on November 21St where we rehashed the new zoning classification and the beverage store issue. Nothing new or no new revelations. Recreation Board - Mr. Mamie said the Recreation Board met on (and he joked, this is a combination of ours and Bill's and since Bill usually gets a little more time, it will take about 45 minutes for this report.) The MBA Program; we mentioned earlier that it going extremely strong but there's 210 kids in it this year with 27 teams. The after-school Chess Program is a success; there is 28 of them enrolled at this time (in just the first 2 sessions.) Mr. Mamie addressed Council President Buckholtz and asked, did you want to address the Pi Society; Bill thought you might want to cover that? Council President Buckholtz said I just wanted to mention that the kids are very excited about the trip. There's 3 excellent trips going over the vacation. The first one will be December 23rd; a trip that's been arranged to NASA (through some people that work there); the kids will have an opportunity to split into 2 groups and experience what it's like to live and work in space and in a
