Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council <br />Monday, June 15, 2020 <br />Page 4 <br />Lorry Nadeau <br />678 Robley Lane <br />With reference to Ordinance No. 2020-12, as a member of the 2020 Charter Review Committee <br />and 35 -year resident of wonderful Mayfield Village, I support this Ordinance. It would provide <br />our elected officials with compensation commensurate with the responsibilities of their jobs and <br />the skills and time required to perform those roles. <br />John G. Michalko <br />On behalf of John and Henrietta Michalko <br />6852 Wilson Mills Road <br />I have read Ordinance 2020-12 and the Memorandum and Schedule regarding the Mayor's salary <br />and benefits along with the salary of council. As a resident of Mayfield Village for 41 years I think <br />it is time to increase the salary of both Mayor and Council including benefits for the Mayor. More <br />work and time is dedicated to beeping the Qperation of the Village running smoothly than most <br />residents are aware of. The Mayor and Council meet with all committees and departments as well <br />as local, state, and federal government officials. <br />We have. very dedicated individuals as. Mayor and Council members that are concerned about the <br />value the Village brings to its residents and their compensation needs to show that. Compared to <br />many other cities, towns and villages we are way behind in compensation. <br />Mayfield Village is a unique and special community offering both a neighborly village and a <br />sophisticated business base. We have the best services that anyone could ask for. This takes time <br />and dedication on the part of the Mayor and Council to keep the Village a Village in the future. As <br />we go forward with the unknown about COVID-19 and other issues, the challenges will take the <br />expertise and dedication of the Village leaders. <br />Cindy Kennedy <br />6751 Metro Park Drive <br />I'm relieved to see the topic of George Floyd and civil / human rights addressed at the meeting via <br />Resolution 2020-30. I have a few thoughts and questions to share: <br />1) with regard to #2, continuing to develop and promote policies of diversity and inclusion.... what <br />specifically is being done already, and what are the specific strategies and goals going forward? <br />2) with regard to #4, dedication to ensuring that Mayfield Village is a place where all people... feel <br />safe and welcome. What specifically is being done and how will progress be measured? The 2010 <br />census reported that MV is 90% white. Is this viewed as an indicator that perhaps MV is not as <br />welcoming as it could/should be? Is there a diversity goal to change that percentage and what <br />active steps will be taken to accomplish this? <br />
