VISITORS’ OPPORTUNITY TO ADDRESS COMMISSION Ms. Julie Nader, 4411 Brendan Lane, North Olmsted, came to listen to the Rec Commission meeting, being interested in the plans for the Rec Center and the appointment to the Commission. Mr. Lasko said that the Master Plan for the Recreation Department was approved by the Commission and by Council about a month ago. If Ms. Nader has not seen the Plan, Mr. Lasko was sure that Mr. Dailey could make that available for her, which she said she had received. Other than the day-to-day matters of the operation of the Parks and Recreation Department, the Commission is not considering this evening anything else about the overall Master Plan for recreation in the City of North Olmsted. Mr. Lasko said he was sure it would come up at a future date when the Administration has had time to refine the plans that they have presented and some of the discussion that the Rec Commission believes is going on with interested parties but, at the moment it’s status quo. In terms of the appointment on the Commission, there is one opening, and that is subject to the Mayor’s discretion.
