Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council <br />Monday, March 19, 2018 <br />F'age 25 • First Reading of Resolution No. 2018=08, entitled, "An Emergency Resolution <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />authorizing Mayfield Village to take all aetions necessary to accept Northeast Ohio <br />Public Energy Council (NOPEC) Energized Community Grant." Introduced by Mayor <br />Bodnar and Council as a Whole. (Law Department) <br />Council President Saponaro stated, we are going to keep these on first reading unless they need <br />to pass because even with Resolutions we axe going to try to keep everything on first read and go <br />through the thfee-read process. Does'tihis need to pass for any particular reason? , <br />Mr. Coyrie stated, this was introduced as an emergency resolution. <br />Council President Saponaro stated, all of these are if you look at them. Who's sponsoring this? <br />Who is going to speak to tfiis? <br />Ms. Wolgamuth stated, NOPEC sent us a letter saying that they had granted the Village $14,000 <br />that we would be able to use for any energy efficiency changes we were making so if we were <br />putting LED lighting in or doing any of.those kinds of projects, we can receive this $14,000. We <br />can also look back and look at any projects we did in the past year. If we don't spend the money <br />this yeax, it can also accrue and we will have it for next year, so I don't think there's a deadline <br />that we have to have it. The sooner we pass the Agreement the sooner we can apply for the <br />money. Mr. Coyne stated, just to follow up with what Diane said; that was my recollection. It seemed to <br />make sense. You are going to be able to apply for ihe money earlier than to liave it for three <br />readings. It would seem to make sense to pass this as an emergency, but it's certainly up to the <br />discretion of Council. <br />Council President Saponaro stated, I will certainly entertain a motion to suspend. <br />Mrs. Mills, seconded by IVIr. Williams, made a motion to suspend the rules.of Council <br />requiring a Resolution to be read on three separate occasions. <br />ROLL CALL: AYES: All Motion Carried <br />NAYS: NoneRules Suspended <br />Mrs. Mills, seconded by Mr. Williams, made a motion to enact Resolution No. 2018-08. <br />Council President Saponaro asked, discussion? <br />Mrs. Mills stated, in our packet, we had information about NOPEC. It tells about this <br />grant. <br />Council President Saponaro stated, thank you. Any other discussion on this? If we pass <br />this now we can apply for this grant at this point.
