Cotmci.l MtnetE$s_..9f 1-19..71 __-geRge--lU- <br />co-ntest becauee I do not intend to nm again for the of€ice of Council. <br />Mr. Boehmer's conaaents: I made the statement to Council sametime bac.k <br />r.hat I would intraduce this. Maf.n reasocc why I did not intrc+duc'e this <br />cor:ight is because I listened to the people aver the phone; spoke ta <br />three different groups oz? thia, aad even though I do kuaw that tlte City <br />does need this sewer treatment p2ant I feel it iB beiag purahed dcwa <br />throats by putting it an tho water b112. I have expressed myffielf to <br />Council tonight aad Iwttoleheartedlp gp aloag with Mr. Gradp on manq <br />of the things he broaght up. This is the aain reason I am voting it <br />darm. I feel that there can bt ottter waye to obtsin maneq for the <br />expansion. <br />Mr. West's camaQente: I have listened last night and tonight. 8vsryane <br />that has talked ta.me has said thay are in agreemsnt we need to clem <br />up our sewers- we need to take sCepe to make sure that we are not eantri- <br />buting to the polluticn of Lake Erie anci Racky River. Iie shauld go ahead <br />with it. The questions have beea mflneCary and rightfully so, but, here <br />again, it is like the steel compau3es, ail ccrmpanfes, City of Cleveland, <br />when it comes their turn - they do nat wamt to sparstd the mcmay to do it. <br />I,just feel very positive that we have to take these steps, and i reaI.ize <br />it is not popu].sr and I am sarty sbout it but it has to be daas. T'here <br />is a question of whether it has to be 6millivn or 9 millian gallcrns. We <br />have been worlcing aa this - at lesst I have been for 15 month:, avid I can <br />tell you that same of Che remarks I just heard toni.ght about vat3ag against <br />it, etc., tanight 3s the firat tisae I everq heard about this from other <br />Council peaple. If there were questiot3s that needed to be raised eisd if <br />there ar+e things that needed to be done - like building ben -what are <br />people sitttng around this Couctcii now saqing - well, whq didn'C we put <br />a bui.3ding baa oa last pear? The whole questioa here tonight is do we <br />have the courage to ataiad up and do what we need to do and to go atead, <br />and based upon Che fact that the main question is on financing. It has <br />been pointed out, and I want to poiat it out again that this question of <br />financing can be bxought up at anqtime, can be revised at angtime; we <br />can have a bond issue at anyCime regardless of what we do taaight. <br />Mr. Limpert moved for adoption of Ordinance No. 71-7.
