Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council Monday, April 20, 2020 Page 8 Typically, we would move to the open portion of our meeting. There were no public comments submitted to Mrs. Betsa so we will continue on. DEPARTMENT HEAD REPORTS: Mary Betsa (Council) — All of the training sessions scheduled for the next couple of months have been postponed. The Ethics session scheduled for April 30th was rescheduled to October 22"d House Bill 9 training will be rescheduled for a date in mid-September, early October. Community Shred Day is still scheduled for Saturday, May 16th from 9:00-12:00 in the Civic Center parking lot. You can pull your car up to the truck and documents will be unloaded. It would be easier if they were in your trunk and they will be unloaded and shred. If we will need to cancel this date, we will let you know. In the meantime, we have scheduled an additional date for 2020 on Saturday, October 31St from 9:00-12:00 in the Civic Center parking lot. Council President Schutt stated, thank you Mrs. Betsa. The remaining Department Head reports were submitted to Council ahead of time. I will read through those. Tom Cappello (Engineer) — The Mayfield Village 2020 Concrete Road Program has begun with pavement removal and replacement on SOM Center Road. The contractor anticipates that this work on SOM Center Road will take approximately another two weeks. The contractor will then move to North Commons Blvd. and Parkview Lane to begin repairs on these two streets. I will update you on their progress. Thank you Chief Eugene Carcioppolo (Fire) - Hope you and your families are doing well with the pandemic we are all facing. The Fire Department is doing well and we have been staying on top of the all of the changes that have been coming, to ensure we are safely dealing with the virus for both our public and our employees. I would like to personally thank QED and Prestan Products for their generous donation of masks. These masks will not only help us, they will help other first responders, as the quantities of masks and other personal safety equipment are being continually reported through the County Emergency Operations Center and, if need be, the safety equipment can be redistributed in the event that a shortage exists elsewhere. Approximately three weeks ago we began reviewing and updating the Mass Inoculation Point of Dispensary (MIPOD). While we do not currently have any insight as to when the Cuyahoga County Board of Health will be ordering the POD active, it is never too early to prepare to implement the plan. We have communicated the progress and status of the plan to the other neighboring communities, and as the planning advances, we will be continuing to discuss the final operations plan to ensure efficiency in the plan's implementation. Please stay safe and I hope to see you all soon. Chief Paul Matias (Police) - I would like to report the entire staff of the Police Department has continued to provide excellent service to the community while working tirelessly to stay safe and healthy. I am thankful and proud of every Officer, Dispatcher, and administrative staff member.
