That's all I have. <br />Council President Schutt asked, any questions? <br />There were none. <br />Council President Schutt stated, thank you, Mr. Russell. <br />Chief Matias (Police) - Thank you Council President. I just wanted to update you on two things <br />that have happened recently. On August 1st we held our multi jurisdictional active threat exercise. <br />Last year we did it at Mayfield High School. This year we did it at a vacant building in Highland <br />Heights. We had over 100 police and fire from all the neighboring cities participate in the exercise. <br />It's really a great way of getting everyone to work together. That's the way it would be in a real <br />response, having all the different police and fire responding together. Other than it being a little <br />hot that day, it went off pretty well. <br />The other thing is just a few weeks ago, we had a new monument installed at the Police Department <br />back by the employee entrance by the garage. We got a large piece of granite from the Soldiers <br />and Sailors Monument. A couple of years ago in downtown Cleveland at Public Square they did <br />a renovation and the Soldiers and Sailors Monument ended up with some pretty large pieces of <br />granite that they were donating to municipalities if they use it for something. We got a hold of <br />one and got it engraved. It's basically in recognition for everyone who served on the Police <br />Department, past, present and future. It was donated by the Soldiers and Sailors Monument <br />Commission. I'll get some pictures in the next Voice of the Village. If you can, stop by and take <br />a look at it. It's very nice and very heavy. Thanks to Frank and his guys. They installed it for us. <br />It came out very nice. That's all I have. Thanks. <br />Council President Schutt asked, any questions? <br />
