<br />The Service Director reported the Air Explorer Troop No. 332 had taken a
<br />project of checking all of the streets and sidewalks in the City of North
<br />Olmsted, and had completed their project. An excellent job was done, for
<br />which they should be commended.

<br />been requested to furnish plans to Floyd Browne & Associates and same were
<br />never received; consequently, no other meeting was scheduled.

<br />Mr. Hixson reported the Plats Committee reviewed the correspondence pursuant
<br />to the request for rezoning property at 25459 Lorain from multiple dwelling
<br />to retail business, and the Solicitor advised this would be spot zoning and
<br />it was recommended the application be denied on that basis.
<br />It was moved by Mr. Hixson, seconded by Mr. MacDonald, the matter be
<br />returned to the Planning Commission on the advice of the Solicitor, wherein
<br />he advised we cannot legally zone a piece of property as it would be con-
<br />sidered spot zoning. "Yeas" Hixson, Kramer, Lynch, MacDonald, O~Neill,
<br />Wilson.
<br />Mr. OfNeill reported a meeting was held
<br />Transportation Committee to request a 90

<br />point of pick-up from the County line to

<br />in regards to the fare to be charged.

<br />day trial run on Sundays and holidays

<br />Park, upon Councils determination
<br />It was moved by Mr. O~Neill, seconded by Mr. Kramer, that a 25¢ fare be
<br />charged by the Municipal Bus Line from any point from the County line to the
<br />last pick-up station, with regards to the suggested run to the Rapid Transit.
<br />"Yeas" Hixson, Kramer, Lynch, MacDonald, O~Neill, Wilson.
<br />In the bbsence of Mrs. Hinkel, Mr. OtNeill reported a communication was re-
<br />ceived from residents of Ambour Drive, advising they felt the application for
<br />release of sidewalk bond should be denied because of the drainage problem
<br />behind homes on the South side horned by Pacer Construction, and they are
<br />also concerned with the condition of the tree lawns. They further request
<br />Councils consideration of this matter. The letter was signed by twenty
<br />residents.
<br />Discussion ensued relative to the drainage condition and the Engineer advised
<br />the flow is into the Claque Road storm sewer which is inadequate, and possibly
<br />the installation of the proposed sewer to be constructed on Claque Road may
<br />afford some relief. Several residents appeared before Council requesting the
<br />Engineer look it over and give Pacer Construction his recommendation. The
<br />Engineer advised there had been no provisions for a developer to submit grading
<br />plans until the adoption of the Building Coder, and suggested the installation
<br />of a separate sump from the floor and tub drains in basements. This is not
<br />a provision of the Building Code, but an added expense on the construction
<br />of a home,
