MINUTES OF A REGULAR MEETING OF COUNCIL , Mayfield Village October 15, 2001 The Council of Mayfield Village met in regular session on Monday, October 15, 2001, at 8:00 p.m. in the Mayfield Village Senior Center/Community Room. Council President Bill Marquardt presided. ROLL CALL: Present: Mr. Buckholtz, Mr. Busa, Mrs. Cinco, Mr. Ilacqua, Mr. Marquardt, Mrs. Mills and Dr. Parker Absent: None Also Present: Mayor Rinker, Mr. Brett, Mr. Cappello, Mr. Hanculak, Mr. Metzung,, Chief Stevens, Mr. Thomas and Mrs. Roman The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag was given.

If you come to tomorrow night's meeting, the Worton Park Homeowners Group is finally getting together again. One of the things I want to talk about is the
